Privacy Policy

Anansi Story (“we”, “us”) runs the website at anansistory.com. We care about your privacy and keep what we collect to a minimum. This policy explains what information we gather, why, and the choices you have. If you have any questions, please contact us.

What we collect

• Newsletter & storybook bundle: when you subscribe, we collect your email address (and only that), with your consent, so we can send you stories and updates.
• Contact form: if you write to us, we receive the name, email and message you provide.
• Comments: where comments are enabled, we store the details you submit and your IP address to help prevent spam.
• Automatic data: like most websites, our servers and analytics tools record standard technical information — such as your browser type, device, approximate location and the pages you visit — to keep the site running and understand what’s useful.

How we use your information

• To send you the stories, storybook bundle and updates you asked for.
• To reply to your messages.
• To keep the website secure, fast and working properly.
• To understand which stories are popular so we can make the site better.

We do not sell your personal information, and we never share it except with the trusted services below that help us run the site.

Children’s privacy

Our stories are made for children, but our website is intended to be used by parents, carers and teachers. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Sign-ups and messages should be made by an adult. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

Cookies

We use a small number of cookies: essential ones that make the site work and load quickly, and analytics cookies that help us count visits and improve the site. You can control or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time.

Services we rely on

A few carefully chosen third parties help us operate. Each only receives what it needs, and handles data under its own privacy policy:

• Brevo — delivers our newsletter and storybook bundle emails.
• YouTube & Spotify — when a page includes a video or podcast, these services may set their own cookies.
• Amazon — some book links are affiliate links; if you buy through them we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
• Our hosting and analytics providers — keep the site online and measure general usage.

Your rights

You can ask us to show you the personal data we hold about you, correct it, or delete it — and you can unsubscribe from our emails at any time using the link in every message, or by contacting us. We’ll always respond promptly.

How long we keep data

We keep your information only for as long as we need it — for example, we keep your email while you’re subscribed, and remove it if you unsubscribe.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we’ll change the “last updated” date above.
