Your family's privacy matters to us.

Dash Bear & Friends is built for children ages 2–5 and their families. We take your family's privacy seriously, and we've designed our site with simplicity and safety at its core. This policy explains what information we collect (very little), why, and how we handle it.

• Essential cookies

  Small files stored on your device that keep the site functioning properly — for example, remembering your cookie consent choice. These do not track you across other websites.

• Optional analytics cookies

  If you choose to accept analytics cookies, we may use privacy-focused analytics to understand how visitors use our site — such as which pages are most popular. This data is aggregated and anonymous. You can opt out at any time through the cookie banner.

• No personal information from children

  We do not collect names, email addresses, photos, or any personal information from children. There are no user accounts, no sign-up forms, and no chat features on this site.

• No personal data from children
• No location tracking
• No advertising cookies or targeted ads
• No third-party marketing trackers
• No selling or sharing of any data with third parties

Our site links to Dash Bear's YouTube channel. When you visit YouTube, Google's own privacy policy governs how your data is handled. We display an interstitial notice before taking you off our site so you're always aware when you're leaving. We do not embed YouTube videos directly on this site, which means YouTube cannot set cookies or collect data while you browse dashbear.kids.

When you first visit our site, a cookie banner gives you full control over which cookies to accept. You can accept all, customize your preferences, or reject all non-essential cookies. Your choice is saved locally on your device and you can change it at any time by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the site.

We are committed to complying with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and similar regulations worldwide. Our site is designed so that no personal information is collected from children under 13. There are no registration forms, no interactive features that require personal data, and no mechanisms for children to publicly share information.

Our site is served over HTTPS, ensuring all communication between your browser and our servers is encrypted. We use secure, modern hosting infrastructure and follow best practices for web security. Since we collect minimal data, the risk surface is intentionally small.

If we make changes to this privacy policy, we will update the date at the top of this page. For significant changes, we may also display a notice on our homepage. We encourage you to review this page periodically.

If you have any questions about this privacy policy or how we handle data, we'd love to hear from you.
