Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 4, 2026
This website, akaiatori.com, is operated by Akai Atori. This policy explains what personal information is collected through this site, why it is used, and how you can contact me about it.
Who is responsible for your data
The data controller for information collected through this website is:
Akai Atori
Email: contact@akaiatori.com
Newsletter
When you subscribe to Letters from Akai Atori, your email address and any other information you choose to provide through the subscription form are collected and processed through Kit, the email service used to manage and deliver the newsletter.
This information is used only to:
• manage your subscription;
• send newsletters, new-release announcements, and related updates; and
• maintain the security and deliverability of the mailing list.
The legal basis for sending the newsletter is your consent. You may withdraw that consent at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in every email.
Your information is not sold. It may be processed by Kit and other service providers only as necessary to operate and deliver the newsletter.
Your subscriber information is retained until you unsubscribe or request its deletion, subject to any limited records that may need to be retained for legal, security, or suppression-list purposes.
For more information about how Kit processes data, please refer to Kit’s own privacy policy.
Contact form
When you use the contact form, the name, email address, and message you provide are processed through STUDIO, the platform used to build and operate this website. Please do not send sensitive personal information through the contact form.
The information is used only to read, manage, and respond to your enquiry. The legal basis for this processing is my legitimate interest in responding to messages sent through the site, or taking steps at your request before entering into an agreement.
Contact-form information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to the enquiry and maintain any necessary related records.
Cookies and analytics
This site uses cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for basic site functions, security, and embedded forms — including the embedded newsletter form, for example to manage form submissions or remember your subscription status.
This site also uses Google Analytics to understand general site usage, such as page visits and referral sources. You can opt out of Google Analytics at any time by using Google’s browser opt-out add-on or your browser’s cookie settings.
External links
This website contains links to third-party websites and services, including Wattpad, X, Kit, and online bookstores. Once you leave this website, the collection and use of your information are governed by the privacy policies of those third parties.
International data processing
Some service providers used by this website, including Kit and STUDIO, may process or store information in countries other than your own. Where applicable, those providers are responsible for using appropriate safeguards for international data transfers under their own terms and privacy policies.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
• request access to the personal information held about you;
• request correction or deletion;
• withdraw consent;
• object to or restrict certain processing; and
• lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority.
To make a request, contact contact@akaiatori.com. I may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.
Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes to the website, the services used, or applicable requirements. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
