Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your information. Personal information is stored in secure systems, and only employees or contractors who need access to perform their job—such as billing, customer support, or service delivery—are allowed to view it.

All devices, databases, and servers used to store personal information are kept in a protected environment. While no system is perfect, we take your privacy seriously and work to safeguard your information responsibly.

Payment Information

To process your order, we may need to collect basic details such as your name, email address, phone number, and billing address.

Authors Hike does not handle or store your credit card information directly. All payments are processed securely through trusted third-party payment providers such as PayPal or Square. These providers manage your payment details according to their own security and privacy standards.

Confidentiality and Ownership

Everything you share with Authors Hike is kept strictly confidential. We do not disclose your information, content, or communication to anyone outside our company.

All content we write, edit, or develop for you becomes your property. We do not claim authorship, ownership, or rights to your material. If you hire us, you alone are recognized as the author or owner of the work.

Personalized Advertising & Opt Out Option

We partner with external advertising providers, including Microsoft Advertising, to analyze and improve our marketing efforts and to present ads that are more relevant to your interests. These partners may use cookies and similar technologies to gather information about how you interact with this website and others, so that they can deliver targeted (“interest-based”) advertisements.

If you do not wish to receive interest-based ads from participating companies, you can opt out by visiting:

– Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) consumer opt-out page: https://optout.networkadvertising.org

– Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) WebChoices tool: https://optout.aboutads.info

On mobile devices, you can also download the DAA AppChoices app from your app store to manage your interest-based advertising settings. If you use Windows, you can further restrict data used for interest-based ads by going to Windows Settings > Privacy > General and disabling “Let apps use advertising ID to make ads more interesting to you based on your app usage.”
