We use cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences, understand how visitors use the site, and support essential functionality. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings and, where shown, through our on-site cookie notice.

Disabling certain cookies may affect how some features of the website work.

If you opt in to receive updates from Barnes & Noble Press, we may send you emails or other communications about publishing tools, offers, and related information. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in those messages or by contacting us.

Transactional or service messages related to your inquiry (such as verification codes) may still be sent when necessary to complete your request.

We retain personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, including responding to inquiries, maintaining business records, resolving disputes, and meeting legal or compliance requirements.

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain processing of your personal information, or to object to marketing. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.

This website and related inquiry tools are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or the minimum age required by applicable law). If you believe a child has provided information to us, please contact us so we can delete it.

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page indicates when changes were last made. Continued use of the site after an update means you acknowledge the revised policy.
