Home › Privacy Policy

JCT Creations is the home of children’s books by Cory Tarwater. This page explains, in plain words, what information this website collects, why, and what you can do about it. The short version: we collect very little, we never sell it, and you can ask us to delete it at any time.

What we collect

• Newsletter sign-ups. If you join the email list (for example, to get the free Story-Time Kit), we collect your email address and, if you give it, your first name.
• Review submissions. If you send a review through the reviews page, we collect your name, email address, star rating and review. Your email is never published. Your review only appears on the site if you tick the box allowing it, and then with your first name only.
• Emails you send. If you email Cory, we keep your message and email address so we can reply.
• Basic visit statistics. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which counts page visits without cookies and without tracking you across other websites.
• How visitors use the site. We use Google Analytics to see which pages people visit, how they found the site, and which buttons they tap (like “Buy on Amazon” or a printable download). It uses cookies and collects general information such as your device type, browser and rough location (city or country). It does not tell us who you are.

How we use it

We use your information only to send the newsletter or free downloads you asked for, to read and respond to your review or message, and to understand which pages are helpful. We do not sell, rent or trade your information to anyone.

Services that help run this site

• MailerLite stores newsletter sign-ups and sends our emails.
• Cloudflare hosts the website and provides the visit statistics.
• Google Analytics helps us understand how visitors use the site. You can read how Google uses this information, or turn it off with Google’s opt-out browser add-on.
• Google Fonts supplies the lettering on the site, which means your browser contacts Google to load it.
• YouTube plays the videos embedded on some pages.

Links to Amazon, Barnes & Noble, IngramSpark, Goodreads and other stores take you to their websites, which have their own privacy policies.

Cookies

This site does not use advertising cookies. Google Analytics uses cookies to count visits and see how people use the site; you can block them in your browser settings at any time. Embedded YouTube videos and the MailerLite sign-up form may also store small pieces of information in your browser to work properly.

Children

Our books are for children, but this website is meant for parents, grandparents and teachers. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us information, email us and we will delete it.

Your choices

• Every newsletter email has an unsubscribe link at the bottom.
• You can ask us to show, correct or delete any information we hold about you by emailing jctcreations2026@gmail.com.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle information, we will update this page and the date at the top.
