3. AI Processing and Third-Party Providers
When you use AI features, your prompts, book descriptions, outlines, chapters, selected text, cover instructions, style samples, story bible details, marketing-kit inputs, or text-to-speech text may be sent to third-party AI, image, or voice providers so they can return the requested output.
Depending on the feature and configuration, providers may include OpenRouter, image generation services, text-to-speech providers, Google authentication, Stripe payments, email services, hosting providers, analytics/logging tools, and other technical vendors used to run AI Book Maker.
4. Generated Books, Covers, and Audio
Your generated manuscripts, edited chapters, book covers, exported ebook files, and generated voice/audio files are stored so you can access, edit, preview, download, and share them. If you make a book public, its title, cover, author profile, description, chapters or preview content, reviews, ratings, likes, public views, and download links may be visible to visitors.
5. Payments, Credits, and Stripe
Payments are processed by Stripe. AI Book Maker stores payment status, package details, credit amounts, transaction history, and Stripe identifiers, but does not store full card numbers on its servers. Stripe may process payment information according to its own privacy practices.
6. Cookies and Sessions
We use cookies and similar technologies for login sessions, CSRF protection, security, preferences, account features, and normal Laravel application behavior. Disabling cookies may prevent login, checkout, generation, downloads, or dashboard features from working correctly.
7. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share only the information needed with service providers that help operate AI Book Maker, including hosting, payment processing, authentication, AI text generation, AI image generation, text-to-speech, email delivery, file storage, logging, analytics, security, and customer support providers. We may also disclose information when required by law, to enforce our terms, or to protect users and the platform.
8. Data Retention
We keep account data, books, generated content, uploaded files, credits, purchase records, reviews, followers, and logs for as long as needed to provide the service, maintain backups, comply with legal/accounting requirements, resolve disputes, prevent fraud or abuse, and operate public sharing features. You may request deletion of your account or specific content where applicable.
9. Your Choices and Rights
- You may update account and author profile information from your dashboard.
- You may edit, regenerate, delete, export, or unshare book content using available tools.
- You may choose not to use Google login, AI generation, uploads, public sharing, payments, or voice generation.
- You may contact us to request access, correction, export, or deletion of personal information, subject to legal, security, and operational limits.
10. Security
We use reasonable safeguards such as password hashing, authentication, role-based access, CSRF protection, server-side validation, secure payment processing through Stripe, and admin controls. No website, AI provider, file system, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
11. Children
AI Book Maker is not intended for children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us through the contact page.

AI Book Maker may be accessed from different countries, and data may be processed by service providers in locations outside your country. By using the platform, you understand that your information may be transferred and processed where our providers operate.
