Privacy

There are no accounts, no sign-ups, no forms and no email boxes anywhere on this site. There is no analytics, no advertising, no tracking pixels and no cookies. We do not know who visits, how many of you there are, or what you did here.

The activities remember what a child was doing, so a half-coloured picture is still there tomorrow. That is saved in your browser’s own storage, on your own device. It is never sent anywhere, and we cannot read it.

Four things are stored:

• leaflette:colouring:v3: the marks made on a colouring page
• leaflette:dressup:v1: which outfit pieces Leaflette is wearing
• leaflette:garden:v1: what has been planted in the garden and how grown it is
• leaflette:catch:best: the best score in the catching game, as a number

None of it is personal information. There is no name, no age, no location, no photo of anybody. Clearing your browser’s site data removes all four, and the activities simply start fresh.

This site is made for young children, so it is built to the simplest safe rule: it does not collect personal information from anyone, of any age, including children under 13. There is nothing here for a child to type their name into, nothing to sign up for, and no way for a child to send anything to us or to anyone else.

The alphabet videos live on YouTube. Nothing is requested from Google or YouTube while you are simply reading the page. The pictures you see are ordinary images served from this site. Only when a child presses a tile to play a video is a player loaded, and it uses youtube-nocookie.com. From that moment YouTube’s own privacy policy applies to the video, not ours.

The shop links to Amazon, where Leaflette’s book is sold, and the footer links to the YouTube channel and to EZ Web Dev, who built the site. Those are other companies with their own privacy policies. We receive nothing back from them about who clicked.

The site is hosted by Netlify. Like any web host, their servers record ordinary technical request information such as IP address and browser type in order to serve the page and to keep the service running. We do not use that for analytics and we do not combine it with anything else.

If the site ever starts doing something that affects privacy, this page is updated before that change goes live, and the date at the top changes with it.

Leaflette & Friends is operated by Busted Open Solutions.
