We do not use child profile data for behavioral advertising or to build advertising audiences.

Analytics and advertising

We do not load Google Tag Manager. With a parent’s consent, we use Google Analytics on our public pages to see how parents use the site (usage statistics such as pages viewed and approximate region). It loads only after you choose “Allow analytics” in the cookie banner, never loads on dashboard, library, onboarding, or story routes, and runs with Google signals and ad personalization turned off and IP anonymization on. We do not use Google Analytics data for advertising. Server logs (for example IP address and user agent on public pages) may be recorded as described in the Privacy Policy.

With consent we load the Facebook pixel on public pages to measure our own ads; no child data is sent to Meta. Details are in the Privacy Policy.

Some links on our public pages are affiliate links, and we may earn a commission if you buy through them.

Service Availability & Force Majeure

SlumberTales depends on services outside our control, including third-party AI providers, hosting and servers, CDN and DNS providers (such as Cloudflare), email delivery services, and internet connectivity. Outages or failures of these services, or other events beyond our reasonable control (such as power failures, natural disasters, or other acts of God), may delay a story or prevent it from being made or delivered.

We do not guarantee any particular delivery time or that the Service will always be available or uninterrupted. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any story that is delayed or not delivered because of such events.

If one of your stories is affected, contact us and we'll make it right at our discretion, for example with a replacement story or a free story credit.
