Billy

Privacy Policy

Last updated: this is a pre-launch draft.

Billy and the Wild Forest is built for children aged roughly five to seven and the grown-ups who buy for them. We collect as little as possible, and nothing at all from children.

What we never collect

  • A child's email address, birthday, photo or name for a public profile.
  • Location data.
  • Advertising or cross-site tracking identifiers.

Grown-up family accounts

A family account belongs to a grown-up. We use a grown-up email address only to send a passwordless sign-in link and to attach that account to the books it owns. There are no child accounts, no child profiles and no deliberate collection of children's personal data.

What is stored in our backend

  • Your family account email and sign-in session.
  • Which adventures your account owns, and the order records behind them.
  • Reading progress for a signed-in account, so a story resumes on any device.

What is stored in your browser

  • Your chosen language.
  • Your cookie preference.
  • Guest reading position, before you sign in.

You can clear browser storage at any time from your browser or the Parent Area.

Payments

Real checkout is not enabled yet, so no card details are requested, transmitted or stored by us. When a payment provider is connected, card data will be handled by that provider and never by us.

Advertising and tracking

No advertising technology and no cross-site tracking has been added to this site.

Questions about privacy can be sent through the contact page by a parent or guardian.
