5. Embedded Content from Other Websites
Our site may include embedded content (e.g., toy demonstration videos, child development articles, or educational resources from third-party platforms). This content behaves identically to visiting the original website directly.
Third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional tracking tools, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content—especially if you are logged into their platform. We do not control third-party data practices, so we recommend reviewing their privacy policies (especially those targeting children or families).

- Legal authorities if required by law, court order, or to protect our rights, safety, or the safety of children and families.
- Your IP address is included in password reset emails to help prevent unauthorized access to your account.
7. How Long We Retain Your Data
- Comments & Metadata: Comments and their associated metadata are retained indefinitely to enable automatic approval of follow-up comments and prevent spam.
- User Registration Data: If you register an account, we store the personal information you provide (name, email, shipping addresses) in your profile. You can edit or delete this information at any time (except your username). Website administrators may also access and edit this data for administrative purposes.
- Order Data: Purchase and order information is retained for 7 years to comply with tax and legal obligations, and to facilitate returns or customer support.
- Children’s Data: If we inadvertently collect data from a child under 13, we delete it immediately upon discovery or parent/guardian request.
