Effective Date: January 1, 2025
Welcome to the Mrs. Donnie Teaches website! We are so happy you’re here to learn and explore with us. Your privacy is very important to us, and this policy is here to explain how we handle information.
A Message for Our Young Explorers (The Kids’ Version!)
Hi, curious explorers! This is a safe place for you to have fun and learn. Here are our promises to you:
- We Don’t Ask for Your Secrets: We will never ask for your full name, your age, your address, your phone number, or your email address. That’s your private information, and we don’t need it.
- Your Visit is Anonymous: Think of our website like a public playground or a museum. You can visit, play with the activities, and watch all the videos without ever having to tell us who you are. You don’t need a ticket or a name tag to learn here!
- Talking to Us: If you need to contact us, please ask your parent or guardian to do it for you. It’s the safest way!
Your job is to learn, explore, and have fun. Our job is to make sure you can do that safely and privately.
Our Privacy Promise to Parents and Guardians (The Grown-Up Version)
Mrs. Donnie Teaches is committed to creating a safe online environment for our users. We take the privacy of children very seriously and are committed to complying with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
This policy outlines our practices regarding information. The most important thing to know is that we do not knowingly collect any Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from children under the age of 13.
1. Information We Do NOT Collect from Children
Our website is designed to be explored anonymously. We do not require any form of registration for children to access our content. We do not collect any of the following personal information from children under 13:
- First and last names
- Dates of birth or specific ages
- Home or other physical addresses, including street name and city/town name
- Online contact information like email addresses or social media handles
- Screen names or usernames
- Telephone numbers
- Photographs, videos, or audio files containing a child’s image or voice
- Geolocation information
- Any other identifier that would permit physical or online contacting of a child
2. Information We Collect from Parents/Guardians
The only instances where we may collect personal information, such as an email address, are when an adult voluntarily provides it to us. This includes:
- Newsletter Subscriptions: If a parent or guardian subscribes to our newsletter, we will collect their email address to send updates. This is intended solely for adults.
- Contact Forms: If a parent or guardian contacts us through a form on our website, we will use their email address solely to respond to their inquiry.
This information is provided voluntarily by adults and is used only for the purpose for which it was submitted. We do not sell or share this information with third-party marketers.
3. Non-Personal Information (Anonymous Data)
Like most websites, we may collect anonymous, non-personal information to help us improve the user experience. This may include:
- The type of web browser being used (e.g., Chrome, Firefox).
- The type of operating system (e.g., Windows, Mac).
- The number of visits to our site and which pages are most popular.
This information is completely anonymous. It is used for analytical purposes only and cannot be used to identify any individual child or user. We do not use tracking cookies that collect personally identifiable information.
4. Third-Party Links (Like YouTube)
Our website contains links to our videos hosted on YouTube and may link to other third-party websites. Please be aware that this privacy policy applies only to the Mrs. Donnie Teaches website. When you click on a link to an external site like YouTube, you are leaving our website, and their privacy policy will apply. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.
