About this website
This is the official website of author David Rosenfelt. This page explains how information is handled when you browse the site or send a message.
Messages you send
The contact form asks for your name, email address, an optional subject, and your message. This information is sent by email to David so he can read your message and respond. Your email address is used as the reply address. Please do not include passwords, payment details, or other sensitive information.
The website does not maintain a separate database of contact messages. Messages and replies may remain in the receiving email account as needed for correspondence and record keeping.
Security and temporary cookies
The contact page uses a temporary session cookie to protect the form against misuse. The server also uses short-lived security records to limit repeated submissions. Those records contain timestamps and keyed hashes rather than the submitted name, email address, or message text; older records are discarded when new submissions are processed.
The hosting provider may keep routine access and security logs, including IP addresses, requested pages, browser information, and timestamps, to operate and protect the website.
Analytics, advertising, and outside links
This version of the website does not load visitor analytics, advertising trackers, or embedded social-media feeds. Book links, Facebook, and other external links take you to services with their own privacy policies and cookie practices.
Amazon links are affiliate links. If you follow one and make a qualifying purchase, the site may earn a commission. Amazon handles its own tracking and purchasing information.
Questions about your information
Use the contact page to ask about information you have sent through this website or to request a correction or deletion. Please include enough detail to identify the correspondence without sending sensitive information.
