Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 2026
From Manuscript to Market is run by Yvette Farkas. This policy explains what is collected, why, and what happens to it.
1. What is collected
- Your name and email address, when you sign up for the free masterclass or the Book Architecture Starter Kit.
- Your email address, if you enter it inside the course so your lesson progress follows you between devices. This step is optional and can be skipped.
- Your course progress — which lessons you have marked complete, and when.
- Payment confirmation — your name, email, the amount, the date and the PayPal transaction reference. Card and bank details are handled entirely by PayPal and are never seen or stored here.
- Anything you send by email, when you write in with a question.
2. What is not collected
No card numbers, no bank details, no manuscripts. Your writing stays on your own computer — the workbooks are files you download and fill in privately. Nothing you type into them is sent anywhere.
The Goal Tracker inside the course saves your word counts in your own browser only. Those entries are not transmitted or stored on the server.
3. Why it is collected
To deliver what you asked for: send the masterclass and the Starter Kit, give you access to the course, keep your progress in step across your devices, answer your questions, and keep the records needed to run the business and meet its legal obligations.
4. Who can see it
Yvette Farkas, and nobody else. It is not sold, rented or traded, ever.
5. Services used
A small number of outside services are needed to run this site and deliver the course:
- PayPal — takes payment and holds the payment details.
- ALL-INKL — hosts the website, the course files and the progress database, on servers in Germany.
- An email provider — delivers the masterclass, the Starter Kit and the course emails.
- YouTube — hosts unlisted backup copies of the videos, used only if a video will not play from this site. When a backup plays, YouTube may set its own cookies.
Each of these handles your information under its own privacy policy.
6. Cookies and local storage
This site sets no advertising or tracking cookies and runs no third-party advertising pixels. It uses:
- A cookie holding the email address you entered in the course, so your progress can be matched to you.
- Your browser's local storage, to remember your ticked lessons and your Goal Tracker entries on that device.
Clearing your browser data removes both. If you skipped the email step, your progress exists only on that one device and clearing it cannot be recovered.
7. How long it is kept
Sign-up and purchase records are kept for as long as needed to give you access and to meet record-keeping obligations. Progress data is kept while your account is active. Ask for it to be deleted and it will be.
8. Your choices
You can ask at any time to see what is held about you, to have it corrected, or to have it deleted. Every email sent to you carries an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing does not affect your course access.
Write to info@frommanuscript2market.com and the request will be handled.
9. Security
The site runs over HTTPS. The course area is password-protected and the lead and progress files are blocked from public access. Reasonable technical and organisational measures are taken to protect your information, although no method of transmission or storage can be guaranteed completely secure.
10. Children
This course is intended for adults. It is not directed at children, and information is not knowingly collected from anyone under sixteen.
11. Where your information goes
The business is based in Paraguay and the servers are in Germany, so your information is processed outside your own country. By using the site you agree to it being handled this way.
12. Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
