Privacy
Faithville Kids is a Christian children's ministry website. We want families to enjoy our songs, stories and downloads with confidence. This page explains what the website collects and how it is used.
A note about children
This website is designed for adults to enjoy with children. We do not create accounts for children, run child profiles, comments or chat, or ask children to submit personal information. Please use an adult's email address and do not send a child's name, age, school or contact details through our forms.
What we collect
- **Contact messages:** the name, email address, topic and message you choose to send. These are stored privately for our team to reply.
- **Email subscriptions:** your email address, optional first name and optional audience type, the date and source of your consent, and whether you confirmed, unsubscribed or bounced. We do not show whether an address is subscribed to anyone else.
- **Administrator accounts:** the name, email and Manus sign-in identity of the small number of people who manage the site.
- **Aggregate analytics:** anonymous daily counts of actions such as a button click, a storybook download or a video start, together with the page path. These counts do not include IP addresses, email addresses or child profiles.
- **Technical logs:** our hosting platform may process standard request information needed to run and secure the site.
How we use information
We use contact messages to answer you, subscription details to send the monthly storybooks and updates you asked for, and aggregate counts to understand which resources are useful. We do not sell personal information or use it for targeted advertising.
Monthly emails are sent only to adults who have confirmed their subscription. Every email includes an unsubscribe link and an email-preferences link. When the email provider is connected, delivery is handled by **Resend**, which processes the recipient's email address on our behalf. If email is not connected, the website says so and does not pretend to save or deliver a subscription.
Hosting, database and files
This website runs on **Manus** infrastructure. Site content is stored in a managed MySQL database, and uploaded storybooks and artwork are stored in Manus object storage. Manus processes this data to provide the hosting service.
Third-party media
YouTube videos use YouTube's privacy-enhanced embed and load only after you choose to play them. Spotify players and links load when you choose to use them. Those services may set their own cookies and receive standard device information under their own privacy policies. We do not promise ad-free playback or control third-party recommendations.
Retention
Subscriber records are kept until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them. Contact messages are kept only as long as needed to respond and maintain our records. Aggregate analytics are kept in daily summary form and do not identify a person.
Your choices
You can unsubscribe from any email, update your preferences through the link in each email, or ask us to access or delete your information by using the contact form. We may need to verify that a request comes from the email address concerned.
Contact
Use the contact form to reach the Faithville Kids team. If a contact email is configured, it is shown on the Contact page. This policy describes the current implementation; it is not a claim of legal certification in every country.
