Privacy and Cookies
This statement covers the services provided by Storynory Ltd at Storynory.com
Comment Forms
Our visitors actively comment on our stories. Some stories have hundreds of comments. At present, we ask commenters to provide their first name only – they can also invent a nickname. We think our first-name policy protects children’s privacy.
email subscription
If you subscribe to our stories by email, we need to keep your email. The email service is provided for us by Google, but we can see the list of subscribers’ email addresses. We will not sell this list to third parties.
Other forms of Subscription
If you subscribe to our stories via iTunes or RSS feed, we have no idea who you are, unless you contact us personally.
Social Networks
You can follow us by Twitter or Facebook. This is a great way to get in touch with us, and get to know us personally. Social networks are perfect for parents and teachers, grown-up language learners, and other older listeners or young adults. We ask that only people who are thirteen years or older use Social Networks, as we do not think they are safe for children.
