Privacy Policy

Last Updated: July 15, 2026

At Daily Bloom Stories, we take your family’s privacy very seriously. We are committed to transparency and compliance under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and Google Publisher Policy guidelines.

1. Information We Collect

To provide a functional and personalized reading experience, we collect the following limited data:

  • Account Details: When you register (directly or via Google Social Sign-In), we store your name, email address, profile picture (via Gravatar/OAuth), and subscription status. All account creators must be **adults (parents, guardians, or educators) aged 18 or older**.
  • Personalized Custom Stories: Information submitted via our Custom Story Builder (such as your child’s first name, age group, and favorite activities) is stored securely to generate the custom story file. This data is provided voluntarily by the parent and is never shared or sold.
  • Usage Data: We track story reading history, weekly unlocks used, and streak achievements to calculate rewards and enforce plan caps.

2. Cookies and Third-Party Advertising

We use standard technical cookies to keep you logged in and track payment sessions. In addition:

  • Google AdSense: We display advertisements served by Google. Google uses cookies (such as the DART cookie) to serve ads based on your visit to this site.
  • Child Safety & Non-Behavioral Tracking: Because our audience includes children, we do not track children using interest-based or behavioral advertising. Any ads displayed are family-safe, contextual, and do not track kid identifiers.
  • Opt-Out: Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings page or Network Advertising Initiative opt-out resources.

3. Data Security and Sharing

We strictly protect your family’s database records. We **never** sell, rent, or trade your personal details with third-party brokers. Data is only shared with trusted service providers to run the site:

  • Razorpay: Secure payment processing (no credit card details are ever stored on our servers).
  • Google OAuth: Authentication and login verification.

4. Strict Children’s Privacy Protection (COPPA & GDPR-K)

The Daily Bloom platform is built for purchase and setup by **parents, guardians, and educators**. We do not knowingly collect personal contact details or allow direct account registrations from children under 13 years of age.

  • No Direct Collection: Children under 13 are not allowed to submit any personal communication details or create profiles directly on this platform.
  • No Public Sharing: Daily Bloom has no public chatrooms, forums, or profile walls where children can share personal info or interact with other users, ensuring a 100% closed, safe environment.
  • Parental Rights: Parents have the absolute right to review, update, or permanently delete any child metadata submitted for personalized stories by writing to our support team at hello@dailybloomstories.com.

5. Your Rights and Data Erasure

You have full control over your account. You can request access, corrections, or complete erasure of your profile and child’s custom story files at any time by contacting our support team at hello@dailybloomstories.com.
