Privacy
How this website looks after your information.
The short version: the site collects as little as possible, sets no tracking cookies, and never asks children for personal details.
Anonymous visitor statistics
To see which pages, games and books people enjoy, the site records anonymous events (a page was viewed, a PDF was downloaded, a book was added to the basket, roughly how long a page stayed open). Each visitor is represented by a code that is rebuilt from a daily-changing hash of the connection, so it cannot be traced back to a person, and no IP address is stored. The browser's timezone and language are recorded to understand roughly where readers are. No cookies are used for this.
Orders
If you order from the shop, your name, email address, delivery address and the items you chose are emailed to Mimi and kept so that she can send a payment link and post your books. They are used only to fulfil your order and to reply to you. Nothing is charged on the website itself.
Digital editions and the online reader
When you unlock a digital edition, the reader sets an essential cookie so the book stays open on your device for a while. Your reading code is shown faintly on each page as a reminder that the copy is personal.
Things saved in your browser
Your night-mode choice, story-passport stamps, saved colouring pictures, calm-corner layout and basket are kept in your browser's own storage. They never leave your device and you can clear them at any time in your browser settings.
Google Analytics (optional)
If Google Analytics is switched on, a small bar asks first. Only if you say yes does Google set its analytics cookies; choosing "Essential only" keeps things as they are.
Contact forms
Messages sent through the forms are emailed to Mimi so she can reply. Please don't include a child's personal details in a message.
