Privacy Policy
Last updated: 1st July 2025
At Charlie & Clive, your privacy is very important to us — especially since our site is designed for children and families. We’ve built this website to be safe, simple, and free from unnecessary data collection. Below is a clear explanation of what we do (and don’t do) with information.
Who We Are
Our website address is: https://charlieandclive.co.uk.
We are an independent children’s publishing project, creating books and printable activities for young readers.
What Information We Collect
In short: almost none.
We do not ask children to create accounts, log in, or share personal information. We do not run ads, trackers, or in-app purchases.
The only times we might collect limited information are:
- Contact forms / email enquiries: If you choose to email us, we receive your email address and message so we can reply.
- Press or review requests: If you request a press pack, we will use your contact details only to provide the materials.
- Website analytics: We use minimal, anonymized analytics (e.g. visitor counts, most-viewed pages) to help us improve the site. These do not identify individual users and do not track children.
We never knowingly collect data directly from children.
Cookies
- We do not set tracking cookies or advertising cookies.
- Our site may use a temporary session cookie for security (e.g. spam protection on forms). These are deleted when you close your browser.
- If you click external links (e.g. to Amazon or YouTube), those sites may set their own cookies — please check their policies.
Embedded Content
Some pages may include embedded videos or links from trusted third-party sites (e.g. YouTube, Amazon). Embedded content behaves the same as if you visited that website directly. We encourage parents to supervise children’s browsing when leaving our site.
Who We Share Data With
- We do not sell, rent, or share your information with third parties.
- We do not use advertising networks.
- Visitor messages may be filtered through automated spam detection services to protect the site.
How Long We Keep Data
- Emails sent to us are kept only as long as necessary to respond and maintain a record of communication.
- We do not store personal accounts or profiles — there’s nothing for you to delete.
Your Rights
You can always:
- Request a copy of any personal information you’ve given us.
- Ask us to delete your information from our records.
- Contact us with any questions at privacy@charlieandclive.co.uk.
We will respond promptly and respectfully.
Children’s Privacy
Charlie & Clive is designed to be family-friendly.
- We never knowingly collect personal data from children under 13.
- We encourage parents to supervise children online.
- If you believe we may have accidentally collected personal data from a child, please contact us immediately so we can delete it.
