Who we are
DREM Book is a digital publishing service: editing, cover and interior design, ebooks, audiobooks, distribution and marketing. We are the controller of the personal information described on this page. You can reach us at support@drembook.com, or write to DREM Book, 3 High Barnes, Great Lumley, Chester-le-Street, England, DH3 4HX.
What we collect
- Emails you send us. Your name, email address and whatever you share about your project, used to reply and to prepare a proposal or agreement.
- Project details. If you become a client, the details needed to deliver and invoice the work, such as your name, postal address and payment reference.
- Expert profiles. If you are an expert invited to join DREM Book, the details you give us: name, role, tagline, bio, specialties, photo, portfolio pieces, social links and a contact email. This is published on your personal DREM Book page once it goes live.
- Server logs. Our hosting provider, Hostinger, keeps standard server logs (such as IP address, the page requested and the time) for security and reliability.
What we do not do
This website does not use advertising or analytics trackers, does not load scripts or embeds from other companies, and does not sell or share personal information for marketing. Cookies are described on our Cookie Policy page.
Why we use it and our legal basis
- To reply to your enquiry, and to take steps towards a contract at your request (legitimate interests and contract).
- To deliver a project you have agreed to, and to meet our accounting and legal duties (contract and legal obligation).
- To publish an expert profile you have agreed to (consent, which you can withdraw at any time).
- To keep the site secure and reliable (legitimate interests).
Who we share it with
We use service providers who process data on our behalf, including our website and admin hosting provider Hostinger, and our email provider. We do not sell personal information. We may disclose information where the law requires it.
How long we keep it
We keep enquiry emails only as long as needed to answer them and, if a project goes ahead, for the period our business records must be kept. Expert profile information stays published until you ask us to change or remove it, and we then delete it from the site and our records, except where the law requires us to keep something.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law you can ask us to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal information, object to some uses, and ask for a copy of it. Email support@drembook.com. We will reply within one month. If you are not satisfied, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
