We request only children over the age of 13 complete this form on our website and that any personal information about a child only be provided by a parent or guardian of that child.

Our collection of personal information is intended to follow the principles of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), a U.S. law designed to protect the online privacy of children under the age of 13. “The Story Seeds Podcast” also is referred to as “we,” “us” or “our” in this Privacy Policy.

This online form on our website collect the following information: name, age, hometown, state, school, and grade.

We use the personal information we collect to enroll children in The Story Seeds Society, a snail mail club for creative kids ages 6-12; to notify the parents or guardians of kids whose story ideas or writing we have selected to feature on the podcast, our website, or on our social media channels; or to request on-air interviews with kid authors. We use location information internally to better understand where our users and listeners are geographically located.

We always notify parents and receive written permission from them before featuring children’s story ideas or writing or announcing personal information on our podcast. Otherwise, we do not make personal information collected from children publicly available, nor share it with 3rd parties.

Parents/guardians can review their child's personal information, ask to have it deleted, and refuse to allow any further collection or use of the child's information at any time. To do so, please contact us at storyseeds@literarysafari.com.
