I Have a Serious Grumble

Today, Rainbow Ebooks is offering 2 ebooks for free.  However, to get said ebooks, you have to pay by giving them all your personal information including birthdate, full address, and phone number. In my mind, that's not free. Making me join with an email and password I can understand but wtf do they need that other data for?

So, that rhetorical question led me to their privacy policy. They store my IP address as well.  Grrrr

I expect better from a queer company.  And people wonder why users prefer the darknet for getting free ebooks.

Sorry for the late reply but thank you for the heads up. I've downloaded the book. If I wind up liking it, which I think I will, I'll more than likely go buy everything else she has up for sale. XD

Thanks again!
