Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 2026
Read Listen Draw (“we”, “us”, “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have when you use our website and downloads.
1. What We Collect
We aim to collect as little personal information as possible. Depending on how you use the site, we may collect:
A) Basic analytics data
We use minimal analytics to understand how the site is used (for example: which pages are visited, which story packs are downloaded, and which devices or browsers people use). This data is typically collected via cookies or similar technologies when analytics is enabled.
Analytics data may include:
- Pages viewed and approximate time spent on pages
- Download events (for example: which pack or file was downloaded)
- General device information (browser type, operating system, screen size)
- General location information (approximate region/city derived from IP address)
- Referring website (if you clicked a link to get here)
B) Information you choose to provide
If you contact us (for example via a contact form or email), you may provide personal information such as your name, email address, and the content of your message. We use this information only to respond to you and provide support.
C) Log data (server logs)
Like most websites, our servers may automatically log certain technical information when you visit the site. This may include your IP address, the pages requested, timestamps, and basic browser/device details. Server logs are used for security, troubleshooting, and performance monitoring.
D) Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small files stored on your device. We may use cookies (and similar technologies such as local storage or pixels) to support site functionality, measure performance, and—when enabled—serve ads.
2. Third-Party Services
We may use third-party services to operate, improve, and fund the site. These services may collect information through cookies and similar technologies.
A) Google Analytics (when enabled)
When enabled, Google Analytics helps us understand how visitors use our website so we can improve content and user experience. Google may set cookies to collect analytics information.
B) Google AdSense or other advertising (when enabled)
When enabled, advertising partners (such as Google AdSense) may use cookies to show ads, measure ad performance, limit how often you see an ad, and (in some cases) personalize ads based on your interests.
If you prefer, you can often control ad personalization through your Google settings or your browser/device settings.
C) Embedded media and external links
Some pages may include embedded content (for example, a YouTube player) or link to external sites. Embedded content behaves much like visiting the third-party site directly and may use cookies or tracking technologies. We do not control third-party sites and are not responsible for their privacy practices.
3. How We Use Information
We use collected information to:
- Provide and maintain the website and downloads
- Measure which story packs and pages are most useful (analytics)
- Improve content, layout, and performance
- Respond to questions and support requests
- Detect, prevent, and address security issues or abuse
- Fund the site through ads (when enabled)
4. What We Don’t Do
- We do not sell your personal information.
- We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
- We do not require an account to access most of the site.
5. Children’s Privacy
Our content is designed for families and educators, but the website is intended to be used by adults (parents, guardians, and teachers). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or the applicable age in your region).
If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
6. Your Choices & Controls
A) Cookie controls
You can control cookies through your browser settings. You may be able to block cookies, delete existing cookies, or set your browser to alert you when cookies are being used. Note: blocking cookies may affect site functionality.
B) Analytics opt-out
If Google Analytics is enabled, you may be able to opt out of Google Analytics tracking using browser settings or available opt-out mechanisms provided by Google.
C) Advertising controls
If ads are enabled, you may be able to control ad personalization through your device settings, browser settings, or your Google ad settings.
7. Data Retention
We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy:
- Analytics data is retained according to the settings of our analytics provider (when enabled).
- Contact messages are retained as long as necessary to respond and keep basic support history.
- Server logs are retained for a limited period for security and troubleshooting.
8. Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect information from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. International Visitors
If you access this site from outside the country where our servers are located, your information may be processed and stored in a different country. By using the site, you understand that your information may be transferred across borders.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
