Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and how we look after it — on this website and in the Montessori Life Skills App.

Last updated: 23 August 2026

Who we are

Montessori Story Books (Montessori Life Skills Story Books™) publishes children's picture books and the Montessori Life Skills App, created by AMI-trained teacher Kerry Howard. You can reach us at any time at montessoristorybooks@gmail.com.

Information we collect

Information you give us. When you send a contact, consultation, partnership, or bulk-order enquiry, or sign up for email updates, we collect the name, email address, and any message details you choose to provide.

Usage information. We collect basic, aggregated analytics about how the website is used — such as pages viewed and general region — to understand what is useful and improve the site. We do not use this to build advertising profiles.

Purchases. Books are sold through third-party retailers such as Amazon and IngramSpark. Those purchases happen on the retailer's own site, and we never receive or store your payment card details.

Children's privacy

Our books and App are made for children aged 2–6, but they are chosen and managed by parents, carers, and teachers. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Accounts, enquiries, and email sign-ups are intended for adults only. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it promptly.

How we use your information

We use the information you provide to reply to your enquiry, arrange consultations, fulfil school and bulk-order requests, and — if you have asked for them — send occasional updates about new titles and the App. We do not sell or rent your personal information to anyone.

Email and unsubscribing

Every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can opt out at any time from our unsubscribe page or by emailing us. Unsubscribing does not stop replies to an enquiry you sent us.

Service providers

We use trusted providers to host the website, store enquiry records, and deliver email. They process data only on our instructions and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes.

Data retention and security

We keep enquiry and subscription records only for as long as needed to answer you and to meet our record-keeping obligations, and we protect them with access controls and encrypted connections. No system is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable steps to keep your information safe.

Your rights

You can ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, or to stop using it, by emailing montessoristorybooks@gmail.com. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the GDPR or the CCPA, and we will honour them.

Changes to this policy

If we update this policy we will change the date at the top of this page. Significant changes will be highlighted on the website.
