1. What we collect
We may process your name, email address, phone number, postal address for deliveries, message content, and order details when you contact us, place an order, join the reading club, or request a gift card or Blind Book Parcel.
2. Why we process data
- To reply to enquiries and fulfil book orders (contract / pre-contractual steps).
- To manage reading-club places and workshop registrations (legitimate interest / consent where required).
- To comply with accounting and legal obligations in Portugal.
- To operate essential site functions and, with your choice, preference cookies (see Cookie Policy).
3. Legal bases
Processing rests on Article 6 GDPR: contract performance, legal obligation, legitimate interests (running an independent bookshop and improving service), and consent where we ask for it (for example optional cookies or marketing emails).

Enquiry messages are kept as long as needed to complete the conversation and for a reasonable follow-up period. Order and invoicing data are retained for the periods required by Portuguese tax and commercial law. Cookie preferences stay in your browser until you clear them.
5. Sharing
We do not sell personal data. We may share data with delivery partners, payment providers (for example MB Way or bank), and IT hosts strictly as needed to provide the service, under appropriate agreements.
6. Your rights
You may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection where applicable, and withdraw consent at any time without affecting prior lawful processing. Contact us at [email protected].
