Privacy Policy for Kaleb Erickson Last Updated: June 15, 2026
Welcome to the online home of Kaleb Erickson (www.kaleberickson.com). I respect your privacy and am committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how your information is collected, used, and safeguarded when you visit my website, sign up for my newsletter (Mages of the Rift), or join my Advance Reader Copy (ARC) expedition.
1. Information I Collect: When you interact with this site or sign up for my mailing list to receive your free copy of Siege of Ásripar, I may collect the following information:
Personal Information: Your first name and email address (when you voluntarily subscribe to my newsletter or ARC team).
Usage Data: Standard analytics data collected by website hosting platforms (such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited) to help improve the site experience.
2. How I Use Your Information: I use the information you provide solely to:
Send you the free books you requested (like Siege of Ásripar).
Send you my regular "Mages of the Rift" newsletter, which includes updates, exclusive lore, map reveals, and promotional material for the Riftworlds series.
Manage my ARC team for upcoming releases, such as Secrets Etched in Stone.
3. Third-Party Services & BookFunnel Promos: I do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. I do, however, use trusted third-party platforms to deliver content securely:
Flodesk: Used to manage my email list and securely deliver my newsletters.
BookFunnel: Used to securely distribute free books, ARC copies, and manage newsletter sign-ups.
A Note on Newsletter Swaps: I frequently participate in BookFunnel group promos and newsletter swaps with other authors. When you click a link in my email to check out another author's book, you are leaving my ecosystem. If you choose to download their book, you will be opting into their privacy policy and newsletter, which are sent securely via BookFunnel. I never hand over your email address directly to other authors.
4. Cookies: My website may use standard cookies to enhance your browsing experience. You can choose to disable cookies through your browser settings at any time.
5. Your Rights & Opting Out: You maintain full control over your data. You can unsubscribe from the Mages of the Rift newsletter or ARC list at any time by clicking the "Unsubscribe" link located at the bottom of every email I send. If you wish to have your data permanently deleted from my records, please contact me directly at: hello@kaleberickson.com.
