Privacy Policy
Effective date: 2026-07-22
Inkblade Author Studio ("we", "us") operates this site at inkbladesauthorstudio.com, a Pinterest application used to publish marketing pins for our products, and a Patreon application used to read membership analytics and deliver content to patrons of our fiction. This policy explains what data we handle and why.
Data we collect
To post pins to Pinterest, our application uses an OAuth access token issued by Pinterest. We access only our own business account's boards and pins. We do not collect personal data from Pinterest users who view our pins.
To read Patreon membership analytics and deliver patron content, our application uses an OAuth access token issued by Patreon. Through it we access membership counts, tier selections, and pledge amounts for our own creator account, plus patron display names and posts where patrons have chosen to share them. We do not access payment instrument details; those are handled by Patreon.
How we use data
The Pinterest access token and board identifiers are used solely to publish product pins (captions, calendars, image packs, bundles) to our own boards. The Patreon access token is used solely to review membership metrics and publish patron-only content to our own page. We do not sell, rent, or share any data with third parties.
Data retention
The access token is stored securely and used only for publishing. We retain no user-generated content from third parties.
Third parties
We use Gumroad for product sales, Pinterest for marketing publication, and Patreon for memberships and patron content. Each has its own privacy policy governing data you provide directly to them.
