HeartLing Publishing ("we," "us," "our") publishes picture books under the Ant Ling, Bee Ling, Fly Ling, and Spark Ling imprints. This policy explains what information we collect on heartlingpublishing.com, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information we collect
We only collect information you choose to give us.
- Email list: when you subscribe, we collect your first name (optional), your email address, and the imprints you say you are interested in.
- Contact form: when you send us a message, we collect your name, your email address, and your message.
We also see general, anonymous statistics about how the website is used, such as how many people visited a page and which website sent them here. These statistics do not identify you, and we do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
How we use your information
- To send you emails about new books and other HeartLing Publishing news, if you subscribed.
- To reply to messages you send us.
- To understand which pages and books visitors find helpful, so we can improve the website.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.

We use a small number of trusted companies to run this website. They handle your information only to provide their service to us.
- Kit stores our email list and sends our emails.
- Formspree delivers contact form messages to our inbox.
- Cloudflare hosts the website, protects it from attacks, provides the anonymous visitor statistics described above, and forwards email sent to [email protected] to our inbox.
- Brevo sends the email replies we write to you.

Keeping your information safe
We use reputable service providers and secure connections (HTTPS) to protect your information. No method of storing or sending information online is completely secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect it.
