Privacy Policy

February 2025

Stone Labs LLC ("we," "us," or "our") operates the Bedtime Stories website and related services. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our service.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide when creating a personalized story:

  • Account/contact: Email address (to deliver your story and, with your consent, to pre-fill the form on return visits via local storage).
  • Story preferences: Country and optionally state/region, child's age range, story theme, and optionally the child's name and gender—used solely to personalize the story content.
  • Payment: Payment is processed by Stripe. We do not store your full card details; we receive and store only the information necessary to fulfill your purchase (e.g., payment status, transaction identifiers).

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Generate and deliver personalized bedtime stories.
  • Process payments and provide access to paid story content.
  • Pre-fill your email on the story creation form (via local storage on your device) for convenience.
  • Respond to your requests and support the operation of the service.
  • Improve our service and comply with legal obligations.

3. Data Storage and Retention

Story requests and related data are stored on our servers to deliver and display your stories. We retain this data as needed to operate the service and as required by law. Email stored in your browser's local storage remains on your device until you clear it or we update our implementation.

4. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with service providers who assist in operating the service (e.g., hosting, payment processing via Stripe, and AI/story generation). These providers are contractually required to protect your data and use it only for the purposes we specify.

5. Cookies and Local Storage

We may use cookies or similar technologies for essential site functionality. We use local storage to remember your email address on the story form for your convenience. You can clear this data at any time through your browser settings.

6. Children's Privacy

Our service is intended for use by parents or guardians who create stories for children. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. The child's name and similar details are provided by you and used only to personalize the story content.

7. Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal data, or to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights or ask questions about this policy, contact us using the details below.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated policy on this page and update the "Last updated" date. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
