printablecoloringkids.com (“we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. Because our site is for families and teachers, we take extra care to avoid collecting personal information from children.

What Data We Collect

We aim to collect the minimum necessary data.

Information you provide

  • Contact form & email: name, email address, message contents, and any files/links you send.
  • Comments: the data shown in the comment form, plus your IP address and browser user-agent to help with spam detection.
  • Accounts (if registration is enabled): profile data you submit (e.g., display name, email, avatar).

Information we get automatically

  • Log & device data: IP address, browser type/version, operating system, referring URLs, pages viewed, and timestamps.
  • Cookies: small files stored on your device (see Cookies below).

Media you upload

If you upload images, remove EXIF location data. Visitors may download and extract location data from images on the site.

Why We Collect Data (Purposes & Legal Bases)

We use your data to:

  • Provide and improve our website, downloads, and features (legitimate interests / performance of a contract).
  • Respond to messages and support requests (legitimate interests / performance of a contract).
  • Moderate comments and prevent spam/abuse (legitimate interests).
  • Analytics to understand what content is helpful (consent or legitimate interests, depending on your region/settings).
  • Legal compliance and security, including detecting, preventing, and addressing fraud or technical issues (legal obligation / legitimate interests).

Where required by law (e.g., in the EEA/UK), we rely on your consent for non-essential cookies/analytics.

Cookies

We use cookies to make the site work and to remember preferences.

  • Commenter convenience: if you leave a comment, you can opt in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies so you don’t have to re-enter them next time (lasts up to 1 year).
  • Login & display (for accounts/admins): login cookies (up to 2 days), “Remember Me” (up to 2 weeks), screen options (up to 1 year). Logging out removes login cookies.
  • Editing: when editing/publishing an article, a temporary cookie may store the post ID (expires in 1 day).
  • Analytics/Performance (optional): set only with consent where required.

You can control cookies in your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect site functionality.

Embedded Content & External Services

Articles may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images). Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited those sites directly and may collect data, use cookies, and track interactions according to their own privacy policies.

We may use third-party services to operate the site. These processors only receive the data necessary to provide their service and must protect it:

  • Spam detection (e.g., Akismet): comment content, IP, and user-agent for automated spam checks.
  • Avatar service (Gravatar): an anonymized hash of your email may be sent to check if you use it. See the Gravatar privacy policy at automattic.com/privacy.
  • Analytics (e.g., Google Analytics/Privacy-friendly analytics)[optional]: usage statistics to improve the site.
  • Hosting/CDN & Security: infrastructure providers that keep the site online and secure.

Replace or remove services above to match your actual setup.

Comments

After approval, your comment and (if enabled) profile image are visible to the public in context of the comment. To help spam detection, we store the data you submit, IP address, and user-agent string.

Children’s Privacy

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or the age required in your jurisdiction) without verifiable parental consent.
If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please email [email protected] and we will delete it.

Who We Share Data With

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with:

  • Service providers (processors) that help run the site (see above).
  • Legal and security needs when required by law, to protect our rights, users, or the public.
  • Business transfers if we undergo a reorganization, merger, or sale (your information will remain protected and you’ll be notified of material changes).

If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email for security.

How Long We Keep Data

  • Comments: retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-ups automatically.
  • Accounts: we store profile information while your account is active. You can view, edit, or delete your information at any time (except username).
  • Contact requests: typically retained up to 24 months for support and record-keeping, unless we need to keep them longer for legal/security reasons.
  • Logs & analytics: kept for a limited period needed for security and site improvement.

We’ll delete or anonymize data when it’s no longer needed.

Depending on your location, you may have rights over your personal data, including:

  • Access: get a copy of your data.
  • Correction: fix inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Deletion: request we erase your data (subject to legal obligations).
  • Restriction/Objection: limit or object to certain processing.
  • Portability: receive your data in a portable format.
  • Withdraw consent: where processing is based on consent (e.g., non-essential cookies/analytics).

  • Access to categories/specific pieces of personal information.
