Who we are
SleepySproutzzz helps parents and caregivers create calming bedtime stories for kids ages 2–8. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and your choices.
Information we collect
Things you provide — Story settings you type (length, moral, tone) and your email if you choose to receive a copy or manage a subscription.
Payments — Subscriptions are processed by Stripe, which collects billing details (including billing address) on our behalf. We don’t store full card numbers.
Analytics & usage (GA4) — We use Google Analytics 4 to understand site use (pages viewed, events like button clicks, device/browser info, approximate location, session data). GA4 does not log IP addresses to reports.
Cookies — Cookies or similar tech may store a unique ID so the site and analytics work properly; Stripe may set cookies on checkout to prevent fraud.

Process subscriptions and send receipts (via Stripe).
Send essential Service communications (account, receipts, important updates).
We do not sell personal information or use kids’ data for ads.
Children’s privacy
SleepySproutzzz is for adults to create stories for children. We do not request or collect children’s personal information. Please don’t enter a child’s full name or contact details. If you believe we collected a child’s personal information, email us and we’ll delete it.

Do Not Track / GPC
Some browsers send Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signals. Standards vary, so we don’t change our services in response, but you can use the choices above to limit analytics.
