At Leanpub, we use cookies to enhance the user experience. Also, like the rest of the internet, we recently updated our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, in order to comply with the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

You have a Leanpub account, which was created either when you signed up for Leanpub, or when you made a (free or paid) purchase of a Leanpub book. You must accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy to continue to use Leanpub.

Since you have a Leanpub account, we will send you transactional email related to your account. This includes things like changing your password, etc. Besides transactional email, there are other types of email you can get from Leanpub: newsletters and notifications.

We currently produce two newsletters, a Reader Newsletter and an Author Newsletter. We send these newsletters about once a month. Our newsletters have always been opt-in, so you will only get them if you have signed up for them.

Our notification emails have been opt-out until recently. For notification emails, by default Leanpub would email you when an author publishes a new version of their book or course which you have purchased, if they have chosen to include release notes. We encourage authors not to do this more than a couple times per month, so that readers don't tire of their emails.

Because of GDPR, we changed our new version notification emails now be opt-in, for ALL our customers worldwide. (Again, our newsletters have always been opt-in.) This change affects all purchases, not just new ones. So, if you want to keep getting new version notification emails for books you have already purchased, we need you to opt-in.
