The Inclusive Child (“The Inclusive Child,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal information responsibly.

This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit www.theinclusivechild.com, contact us, use features of the website, or otherwise interact with The Inclusive Child, and how that information may be used.

The Inclusive Child is an internationally oriented resource focused on children, families, development, care, disability and inclusion. We aim to collect and use only information that is reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy.

1. Information You May Provide

You may voluntarily provide personal information when you:
• contact us through our website;
• send us an email;
• submit information through a contact form;
• communicate with us regarding editorial matters, partnerships, media or other enquiries; or
• participate in future resources, newsletters, downloads, products or services that require personal information.

Depending on the interaction, this may include your name, email address, the content of your message, information you voluntarily include in your communication, and other contact information you choose to provide.

Please do not send unnecessary sensitive or identifying information about a child through a public contact form or email.

2. Information Collected Automatically

Because The Inclusive Child currently operates on Blogger, certain technical information may be collected automatically by Google and/or the technologies used to operate the website. This may include IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, pages visited, approximate technical information about how you interact with the website, cookies and similar technologies, and information relating to website performance, security and traffic.

Google's Blogger documentation explains that Blogger sites may use Google cookies and may share IP address, user-agent and related performance/security information with Google.

3. Cookies

The Inclusive Child may use cookies and similar technologies provided by Blogger, Google or other services integrated into the website.

Cookies may be used for purposes such as enabling website functionality, remembering preferences, improving website performance, understanding website traffic, maintaining security, and supporting analytics or other website features where enabled.

Your browser may provide controls for managing or blocking cookies. Depending on your location and the technologies active on the website, additional cookie choices or consent mechanisms may also apply.

4. How We Use Personal Information

We may use information you provide to:
• respond to enquiries;
• communicate with you;
• consider editorial submissions or suggestions;
• respond to partnership or media enquiries;
• maintain and improve the website;
• protect the website against abuse or security threats;
• understand website usage and performance;
• provide resources or services you have requested;
• administer future newsletters, downloads, products or other offerings where applicable; and
• comply with applicable legal obligations.

5. Legal Bases for Processing

Where applicable, personal information may be processed on the basis of consent, legitimate interests, contractual necessity, legal obligations, or another lawful basis recognised under applicable data-protection law.

Where consent is relied upon, you may withdraw that consent where applicable.

6. Information About Children

The Inclusive Child focuses on children, families and inclusion. However, the website is not intended to require children to submit personal information directly.

Parents, guardians, professionals and other visitors should avoid submitting unnecessary identifying information about a child.

Please do not send information such as a child's full name, home address, school, telephone number, medical records, photographs, diagnosis, identifying case details, or other sensitive personal information unless there is a clear and appropriate reason to do so.

Where information concerning a child is voluntarily provided to us, we will handle it in accordance with applicable privacy and data-protection requirements.

7. Third-Party Services

The website may rely on third-party services and platforms, including Google/Blogger and, in the future, services supporting email, analytics, newsletters, digital resources, payments, embedded media or other website functions.

Those third parties may process information according to their own privacy policies and terms.

Where third-party services are introduced, this Privacy Policy may be updated to reflect material changes to the information collected or how it is used.

8. External Links

The Inclusive Child may link to external websites, organisations, publications, resources or services.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security or content of external websites. We encourage visitors to review the privacy policies of third-party websites before providing them with personal information.

9. Data Retention

We seek to retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to maintain appropriate records, to resolve disputes, or to comply with legal obligations.

The length of time information is retained may therefore vary depending on the nature of the information and the reason it was collected.

10. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

However, no method of transmission or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

11. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights relating to your personal information, including rights to:
• be informed about processing;
• request access to personal information;
• request correction of inaccurate information;
• object to certain processing;
• request restriction of processing;
• request deletion or erasure where applicable;
• request data portability where applicable; and
• withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
