🔐 Privacy Policy
Last Updated: [09/10/2025]
Welcome to Hidden Sparks Books — where privacy is explained in plain language, and even the fine print has a little sparkle. ✨
This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, and how we keep it safe and sound.
👋 Data Controller
That would be us—hi!
The official “data controller” (a fancy way of saying the person responsible for your info) is:
Hidden Sparks Books (an imprint of The Write Shift LLC, publishing for Cora Penwick)
Email: hello@corapenwick.com
Website: www.corapenwick.com
We're the ones making sure your data is collected responsibly, used with care, and never passed around like classroom gossip. If you ever have a question or want to check in on your data, just reach out—we’re happy to help.
🧾 Collected Personal Data (a.k.a. The Not-So-Boring Bits)
When you hang out on our site, shop the series, or sign up for something magical, we may collect a few details to help us help you. Here’s what we might gather:
Name – So we know who to say hi to
Email address – For sending updates, freebies, and fun stuff (no spam, pinky promise)
Mailing address – If you order something Ziggy-approved
Payment info – Securely handled through trusted services (we never see your full card info)
Website activity – Like what pages you visited, how long you stayed, and what made you smile (or scroll past)
Think of it as leaving a few helpful breadcrumbs so we can make your next visit even better.
We only collect what we need—and never more than necessary. We don’t sell your info or spam you—we’re way too busy keeping up with Ziggy’s adventures for that. 🧡
📋 Your Rights
You’re in charge of your own data. Here’s what you can do anytime:
Access it – Ask us what information we have about you
Update it – Let us know if something’s changed
Delete it – Say goodbye to your data and we’ll remove it (unless we legally have to keep it)
Unsubscribe – Every email we send has a link to opt out anytime
Just email us at hello@corapenwick.com—no red tape, no hoops to jump through.
🛠️ Third-Party Tools We Trust
We may use a few behind-the-scenes tools to help run things smoothly, like:
Payment processors (for secure checkouts)
Email platforms (to send you updates or goodies)
Website analytics (so we know what’s working and what’s not)
All of these services are trusted, widely used, and follow their own privacy and security rules. We only work with tools that treat your info like it matters—because it does.
We never sell or rent your data. That’s just not our thing.
🧒 Children’s Privacy
Even though our books are for children, this website is for grown-ups—parents, teachers, caregivers. We don’t knowingly collect any personal info from children under 13.
If you believe we’ve accidentally collected data from a child, please contact us right away at Hello@corapenwick.com, and we’ll remove it immediately—no questions asked.
🍪 Cookie Policy
Nope, not the chocolate chip kind (sadly). The cookies we use are little bits of digital magic that help our website remember things—like what page you visited last or what you added to your cart.
They’re tiny text files stored on your device to help improve your experience here. Cookies help us:
Keep the site running smoothly
Remember your preferences
Understand what you love so we can make more of it
You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but some parts of the site might not work quite right without them. Just like Ziggy without her mismatched socks—something would feel off.
