Pageseal turns every paid order into a personal copy of your book: the buyer's name and order number go into the file as a calm note page (eBook watermark, PDF stamping), plus a hidden copy ID that stays even if someone deletes the note. Instead of encryption DRM, this is social DRM: the book opens in every reading app, and a shared copy leads back to its order.<\/p>\n\n<p>Before you sell, Pageseal checks your EPUB and shows how it looks in Apple Books, on Android readers and on Kindle, so buyers get a file that works on their device.<\/p>\n\n<h4>What you get<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>A personal copy for every buyer: visible note with name and order number, hidden copy ID<\/li>\n<li>EPUB (reflowable and fixed layout), PDF and audiobooks (MP3, M4B, M4A or a ZIP of MP3s) in one product<\/li>\n<li>Your EPUB checked before you sell: EPUBCheck, DAISY Ace and real pages from Apple Books, Android readers and Kindle (Send to Kindle), with fixes in plain words<\/li>\n<li>Download link on the thank-you page, in My Account, in the WooCommerce order email and in a delivery email<\/li>\n<li>Download limits and link expiry you choose<\/li>\n<li>Leak search: upload a file you found online and see which order it came from<\/li>\n<li>Cancelled, fully refunded or deleted order: the link is blocked; paid again, it opens again without a second copy<\/li>\n<li>HPOS compatible, works with the WooCommerce order API<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Who it is for<\/h4>\n\n<p>Authors and publishers who sell eBooks, PDFs or audiobooks directly from their own WooCommerce shop and want buyers to read anywhere, without passwords, accounts or a special app.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Social DRM or encryption DRM?<\/h4>\n\n<p>Encryption DRM (Adobe, Readium LCP) ties a file to an account or reading app and often needs an activation. Social DRM, also called eBook watermarking, keeps the file open and makes sharing personal and traceable. More: https:\/\/pageseal.app\/social-drm<\/p>\n\n<h3>External service<\/h3>\n\n<p>This plugin is the connector to the Pageseal service at https:\/\/pageseal.app, run by Orbita Media GmbH (Germany). The check of your files, the personalisation, the download page, the delivery mail and the leak search run on that service. The plugin does not work without a Pageseal account.<\/p>\n\n<p>Nothing is sent before you enter your API key. After that:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Files you upload in the Pageseal screens go to the service.<\/li>\n<li>When the payment of an order with a Pageseal product is confirmed: order id and number, buyer's first and last name, email address, site language, product ids and quantities. Orders without a Pageseal product are not sent.<\/li>\n<li>When such an order is cancelled, refunded or deleted, or when you run an erase request: the order id and, for erase requests, the buyer's email address.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Terms: https:\/\/pageseal.app\/terms\nPrivacy policy: https:\/\/pageseal.app\/privacy\nData processing agreement: https:\/\/pageseal.app\/dpa.pdf<\/p>\n\n<p>Plans, prices and limits belong to the service and are billed by Orbita Media GmbH through Stripe.
