Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 1, 2025

Welcome to Divine Tales for Kids, a website owned and operated by Chintan Varnangal LLC. We are dedicated to providing safe, educational, and enjoyable content for children and their families. Your privacy and the privacy of your children are our highest priority.

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights concerning that information. By using https://divinetalesforkids.com, you and your child agree to the terms of this policy.

1. Our Commitment to Children's Privacy (COPPA)

This website is intended for children and their parents/guardians. Our privacy practices are designed to comply with the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). We do not knowingly collect personal information from a child under 13 without first obtaining Verifiable Parental Consent (VPC).

2. Information We Collect

We collect information in two ways: information you actively provide and information collected automatically.

a) Information You Provide for Contests and Promotions

From time to time, we may offer contests or promotions. To participate, we may ask a child to provide limited personal information, such as:

  • A child's first name (for identification in the contest).
  • A parent's or guardian's email address.

IMPORTANT: We will never ask a child for more information than is reasonably necessary to participate in an activity. Before we collect this information, we will require Verifiable Parental Consent. This is typically done by asking a parent to send an email from the address provided, confirming their consent for their child to participate.

b) Information Collected Automatically (Passive Data Collection)

To help our website function and to improve our content, we automatically collect anonymous technical information. This includes:

  • Log and Analytics Data: Your IP address, browser type, and which pages you visit. This data is aggregated and does not personally identify you or your child. We use this for security and to understand traffic patterns.
  • Cookies: Small files used for site functionality and analytics. You can set your browser to refuse cookies.

c) E-commerce Information

This website does not collect any payment information. We provide links to our official e-commerce store, which is hosted on Shopify. When you click a link to purchase an item, you will leave our website and be redirected to our Shopify store. Any information you provide on that store (such as your name, shipping address, and payment details) is collected by Shopify and is subject to their privacy policy.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following specific purposes:

  • To Administer Contests: The parent's email address is used to notify winners and obtain shipping information if a physical prize is awarded.
  • To Improve Our Website: Anonymous analytics data helps us understand what content is popular and how to improve the user experience.
  • For Website Security: Log data helps us maintain a safe and secure environment.

We will not use your or your child's personal information for any other purpose without your express consent.

4. Data Retention and Deletion

We retain personal information collected for contests only for the time necessary to fulfill the contest's purpose. Once a winner has been chosen and confirmed, all personal entries and associated parent contact information are securely and permanently deleted from our records.

5. Our Third-Party Store (Shopify)

Please be aware that when you click on a product link to our store, you are leaving https://divinetalesforkids.com. Our Shopify store is a separate entity with its own privacy policy and terms of service. We strongly encourage you to review Shopify's policies before making a purchase. Chintan Varnangal LLC is not responsible for the data collection practices of Shopify.

6. Parental Rights

As a parent, you have full control over your child's information. You have the right to:

  • Review the personal information we have collected from your child.
  • Revoke your consent and request that we delete your child's information from our records.
  • Refuse to allow any further collection or use of your child's information.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the email below.
