Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

Little Canadian Books is a Canadian publisher based in Halifax, Nova Scotia. We make the Little Canadian Colouring Series — a collection of A to Z colouring apps and books celebrating Canada's provinces and territories. You can reach us at kristen@littlecanadianbooks.ca.

2. Is This App Safe for Children?

Yes. The Little Canadian Colouring Series app is designed for children ages 3 and up. We comply with applicable children's privacy laws, including COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) and Canada's PIPEDA. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without verifiable parental consent.

3. What Information We Collect

We collect very little. Here's what happens on your device:

• Colouring progress — Your child's colouring (colours, stamps, drawings) is saved locally on your device only. We never see it.
• Artist name and age — If your child enters their name and age on the Ugly Stick free draw page, this is stored locally on your device only. We never transmit it.
• Unlocked packs — Records of in-app purchases (colour packs, stamp sets) are stored locally and via Apple/Google's secure systems.
• Purchase receipts — In-app purchases are processed by Apple App Store or Google Play. We receive only confirmation that a purchase was made. We never see your payment details.

We do not collect: names, email addresses, location data, photos, device identifiers, or any data that could identify your child.

4. What We Do Not Do

• We do not show ads
• We do not track your child's behaviour
• We do not share data with third parties
• We do not use analytics tools that collect personal data
• We do not have social features that expose children to strangers
• We do not require account creation

5. In-App Purchases

Some features (colour packs, stamp sets, full book unlock) require a one-time purchase. All transactions are handled securely by Apple App Store or Google Play. Little Canadian Books never processes or stores payment information. Purchases are tied to your Apple ID or Google account and can be restored at any time.

6. Data Storage and Security

All data created in the app (colouring progress, saved artwork, preferences) is stored locally on your device using standard secure storage provided by the operating system. Saved colouring images are stored in your device's document directory and, when you choose to save, your Camera Roll. We do not operate servers that store your child's data.

7. Your Rights

You can delete all app data at any time by uninstalling the app. You can clear specific data (like your child's saved name) in the app's Settings screen. If you have questions about data we may hold, contact us at kristen@littlecanadianbooks.ca and we will respond within 30 days.

8. Changes to This Policy

If we make material changes to this policy, we will update the effective date above and post the revised policy at littlecanadianbooks.ca/privacy. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
