Privacy Policy

Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how FreeColorPrintable (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you visit freecolorprintable.com and download our free printable coloring pages. We built this site to be simple and low-friction: you can browse and print pages without creating an account or handing over personal details. By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.

Information We Collect

We collect as little as possible. There are no user accounts on FreeColorPrintable, so we do not ask you to register, and we do not require a name, email address, or payment information to download or print a page.

• Information you choose to give us. If you email us (for example, at hello@freecolorprintable.com) to ask a question or suggest a page, we receive whatever you include in that message, such as your email address and its contents. We use it only to reply to you.
• Automatically collected usage data. Like most websites, our servers and analytics tools log standard, largely anonymized technical information — such as your browser type, device type, approximate region, referring page, and the pages you view. This helps us understand which coloring pages are popular and keep the site fast and reliable.
• Cookies and similar technologies. Small files stored by your browser help us measure usage and, where applicable, support advertising. See the sections below for details.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not build user profiles to identify you by name.

Cookies & Analytics

We use cookies and similar technologies to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. In particular, we use Google Analytics, a web-analytics service that sets cookies and collects aggregated, largely anonymized data about site traffic — for example, how many people visited a category, which pages are most downloaded, and roughly which region visitors come from.

This data is used in aggregate to guide decisions like which new coloring themes to add. You can learn more about how Google handles data on its “How Google uses information from sites that use our services” page. You can also disable analytics tracking with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Advertising

FreeColorPrintable is free to use, and we may display advertising to help cover the cost of hosting and creating new pages. We may work with third-party ad networks — such as Google AdSense — that use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads and, in some cases, to show ads that are more relevant based on your prior visits to this and other websites.

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to our site or other sites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visits to our site and/or other sites on the internet.
• You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings, or opt out of a broader list of third-party vendors at aboutads.info/choices.

Third-Party Services

To operate the site, we rely on trusted third-party providers — for example, a web-hosting and content-delivery provider to serve pages quickly, an analytics provider (Google Analytics), and an advertising provider (Google AdSense). These services may receive standard technical data, such as your IP address and browser information, as a normal part of delivering their functionality. Each provider handles data under its own privacy policy, and we encourage you to review those policies. We do not control, and are not responsible for, how these third parties use information collected through their own technologies.

Children's Privacy

Our content is family-friendly and intended to be enjoyed by children alongside a parent, guardian, or teacher. We take children's privacy seriously and design the site to be mindful of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. There are no accounts, sign-up forms, or profile features aimed at children, and we do not ask children to submit personal details. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child has provided us with personal information (for example, by emailing us), please contact us at hello@freecolorprintable.com and we will delete it promptly. We encourage parents and teachers to supervise children's use of the internet, including advertising shown by third parties.

Your Choices

You are in control of the data collected through cookies:

• Browser cookie controls. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies and clear stored data through their settings. Blocking cookies may affect how some parts of the site or ads work, but you will still be able to browse and print coloring pages.
• Analytics opt-out. Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent your visits from being included in analytics.
• Advertising opt-out. Manage personalized ads through Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info/choices.
• Do Not Track. Because there is no shared industry standard for responding to browser “Do Not Track” signals, we do not currently respond to them; you can still use the opt-outs above.

Links to Other Sites

Our pages and advertisements may contain links to websites we do not operate. If you click a link to a third-party site, you will be taken away from FreeColorPrintable, and we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of that site. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any site you visit.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the site, our practices, or legal requirements. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Significant changes may be highlighted on the site. We encourage you to review this page periodically so you stay informed.
