Amazon links are how the site earns
Right now, Amazon affiliate links are the only way BookendsAI earns money. If the site helps and you are going to buy one of these books anyway, using our link is an easy way to support it.
How we’re supported. What we keep.
BookendsAI is free to browse. Here’s how Amazon links support the site, what we learn from visits, and what happens when you send a note.
Books come first
Affiliate links do not decide which books we recommend. The page still has to be useful, specific, and honest about who a book is for.
About affiliate links
As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. If you buy through an affiliate link, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.
Your visit and your notes
BookendsAI does not need an account or a behavioral profile to help you choose a book.
No account required
You can browse guides and the Atlas without creating a profile or handing over an email address.
How we use analytics
We collect information about page visits, searches, and clicks to find broken results and improve guides. Our analytics do not use cookies or a visitor ID. We remove email addresses and URLs from search text before storing analytics, and keep reply emails out of analytics.
How long we keep a note
When you send a note, we keep it to help improve the site. Your optional reply email is removed after 30 days. The note itself is deleted after 180 days.
