Textbook Price Check is a textbook search and price comparison service. We may collect information you provide directly, such as an email address if you sign up for alerts or contact us. We may also collect search queries, ISBNs, pages viewed, referring pages, device/browser details, approximate location derived from IP address, and basic log information used to operate and protect the service.

How We Use Information

We use information to provide search results, improve book metadata, compare available offers, troubleshoot errors, prevent abuse, understand site usage, and communicate with you when you request updates or support.

Open Library and Other Data Sources

When a book is not already in our database, we may request book metadata from public or partner APIs, such as Open Library. Those requests may include the ISBN or search terms needed to return book information.
