Author value, not attention capture
Come back because the next useful step is clear. AuctorFolio can organize assistance around goals you choose: drafting progress, deadlines, editorial findings, production readiness, collaboration, series continuity, and the next book.
What it will not do No fabricated urgency, addiction mechanics, manuscript surveillance, fingerprinting, silent discounts, automatic credit grants, or messages sent by an AI agent.
Independent purposes
One permission never smuggles in another. Required service Security, account, legal, billing, support, access, and publication messages remain limited to completing those obligations.
Optional lifecycle Goal and progress assistance requires its own choice. You can change channel, cadence, quiet hours, or withdraw it.
Research and marketing Research follow-up and marketing each require their own permission. Legal acceptance and service notices never count as consent.
