This policy applies to information handled through this Site. It does not control how an outside website handles information after you leave this Site, including Teachers Pay Teachers, Pinterest, Amazon, or another linked service.

You may voluntarily provide information in the following ways:

• Contact form: Your name, email address, selected subject, message, and any other details you choose to include.
• Email subscription: Your email address and subscription status when you sign up for new-post and free-resource updates through WordPress.com/Jetpack.
• Direct email: Your email address and the content of your message when you contact me by email.

The current Freebies page provides direct PDF downloads and does not require an email address to access those files.

WordPress.com, Jetpack, and related site tools may automatically receive technical or usage information when you visit. Depending on the service and your settings, this may include:

• IP address and approximate location derived from it;
• browser, operating system, device type, and language;
• referring page, pages viewed, links clicked, and access dates or times;
• cookie or similar-technology identifiers; and
• security, spam-prevention, performance, and aggregated analytics information.

These providers handle information according to their own terms and privacy policies.

Information may be used to:

• respond to questions, resource requests, or collaboration messages;
• send new-post notifications, teaching ideas, resource updates, and freebies to confirmed subscribers;
• manage subscription and unsubscribe requests;
• operate, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the Site;
• understand which pages and resources are useful through aggregated or service-provided analytics; and
• comply with applicable legal obligations or valid legal requests.

Every marketing or newsletter email should provide an unsubscribe option. Transactional or confirmation messages may still be sent when needed to complete a request.

Cookies are small data files stored by a browser. WordPress.com, Jetpack, and embedded or linked services may use cookies or similar technologies for functionality, security, preferences, analytics, and service performance.

Your browser choices

Most browsers allow you to block, limit, or delete cookies. Restricting cookies may affect certain site functions, including logged-in WordPress features or subscription interactions. Browser help documentation explains the controls available for your device.

Where a consent or privacy control is provided by the Site or a service provider, you may use that control to express your preferences.

WordPress.com and Jetpack

The Site uses WordPress.com and Jetpack services for hosting or site operation, security, forms, subscriptions, performance, and analytics. Contact-form responses and newsletter subscriptions are processed through these services.

Teachers Pay Teachers

Links to Christina’s TPT store allow you to view or purchase resources. Purchases, accounts, payments, and downloads on TPT are handled by TPT under its own policies. Links to Christina’s own store are promotional store links, not described here as affiliate links.

Amazon Associates

The Site may contain Amazon affiliate links. As disclosed in the Site footer, Christina may earn from qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you. Amazon handles activity on its services under its own policies.

Pinterest and other external sites

The Site may link to Pinterest and other outside websites. Clicking an external link takes you to a service whose privacy practices are controlled by that service.

Contact messages are retained only as long as reasonably needed to respond, keep appropriate business records, resolve issues, or meet legal obligations. Subscription information is retained while a subscription is active and may be kept afterward as required by the service provider or for suppression and compliance records.

Reasonable steps are taken to protect information, including relying on established service providers and limiting collection. However, no website, transmission method, or storage system can guarantee absolute security.

This Site is intended for educators and adult caregivers, not for children. The Site does not knowingly request or collect personal information directly from children under 13. Students should not submit personal information through the contact or subscription forms.

If you believe a child has submitted personal information, contact me using the details below so the situation can be reviewed and appropriate deletion steps can be requested.

• Unsubscribe: Use the unsubscribe link in an email or manage your WordPress.com subscription preferences.
• Contact records: Ask to access, correct, or delete information you submitted directly, subject to identity verification and applicable retention obligations.
• Cookies: Use browser controls or an available on-site privacy control.
• External services: Use the privacy and account controls offered by WordPress.com, TPT, Amazon, Pinterest, or another provider.

Depending on where you live, applicable law may provide additional rights. Requests will be considered and handled as required by applicable law.
