Last updated: 25 July 2026. Short version: we run Google Analytics to see which books people are interested in, and if you give us your email we use it to tell you when books are free. We do not sell anything to anyone, ever.
This site is run by Turbo History, an independent publisher of short history books. Contact us about anything on this page at [email protected].
Analytics. We use Google Analytics 4 to count visits and see which book pages are popular. It sets cookies and collects things like your approximate location, device and which pages you viewed. Your IP address is anonymised. In the UK, EEA, Switzerland, Brazil and Canada none of this runs unless you press Accept. Everywhere else it runs by default and you can turn it off any time using "Your privacy choices" in the footer.
Your email, if you give it. If you sign up for free book alerts we store your email address and, if you told us, which book you were interested in. We use it for one thing: telling you when Turbo History books are free or newly released. We do not sell, rent or share it. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe.
Proof that you agreed. When you subscribe we also record the date and time, your country, your IP address and the exact wording you agreed to. That is not marketing data. It exists so we can show you really did ask to be on the list, and it is deleted along with your email the moment you unsubscribe.
Server logs. Our host keeps standard web server logs (IP, page, time) for security and troubleshooting.
Analytics: your consent, where consent is required. Email alerts: your consent, given when you subscribe. Server logs: our legitimate interest in keeping the site up and secure.
Google, for analytics, and only if you consented. That is the only third party involved. Your email address is stored on our own server rather than handed to a mailing list company, so nobody else touches it. If that ever changes we will say so here first. We never sell data.
Analytics data: 14 months. Your email: until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it.
You can ask us for a copy of what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Email [email protected] and we will sort it. If you are in the UK or EEA and think we have handled your data badly, you can also complain to your national data protection authority.
Only Google Analytics cookies, and only with consent where consent is required. No advertising cookies, no tracking pixels, no third-party ad networks. You can change your choice any time via "Your privacy choices" in the footer.
Our books are sold by Amazon, not by this website. We never see your payment details. Amazon's own privacy policy covers anything you do on their site.
If we change this policy we will update the date at the top.
We use Google Analytics to see which books people are actually interested in. That is the only thing we track, we run no ads, and we never sell anything to anyone.
Read our privacy policy. You can change your mind any time using "Your privacy choices" at the bottom of any page.
