Digital Book Purchase Privacy Notice
Data controller/publisher: Gnu IT Solutions and Services Pvt. Ltd. (brand: Gnu Group).
Information involved
Buyer name, billing address, State/UT and PIN, email, book title, edition, amount, order and transaction identifiers, accepted licence version, and limited operational events. Payment credentials are handled by Razorpay, not this bookstore.
Why it is used
To verify orders, issue and manage licences, support purchase recovery and refunds, generate buyer-specific PDF/EPUB copies when available, investigate abuse and maintain required business records.
Personalization
Purchased files may show the buyer name and order reference. Email addresses are not intended to appear on every page. Personalization is a deterrent and does not conclusively identify a source of unauthorized sharing.
Storage and access
Original books remain private. Buyer and payment data should be stored with access restrictions, backups and retention limits. Personal records are retained according to approved tax, accounting and privacy schedules.
Contact and retention
Contact GNU Group via the published website contact channel to request access, correction or assistance with your purchase data. Statutory accounting records may need to be retained even after download access ends. The retention schedule is controlled by the company privacy policy.
