Privacy & cookies

The short version

• Your favorites list is stored only in this browser, never on a server of ours.
• No analytics or advertising cookies are set unless you accept them. If you reject, nothing is loaded from Google at all.
• We do not sell data, and we have no data to sell.

What is stored on your device

The site uses your browser's local storage — not cookies — for a few small conveniences. This data stays in your browser and can be cleared at any time through your browser settings. It is written as you use the site, before and regardless of any cookie choice, because none of it is sent to us — we have no server to send it to.

littlesongbook.favs.v1

The list of songs you have starred.

littlesongbook.recent.v1

The last few songs you opened, so they can be surfaced again.

littlesongbook.prefs.v1

Small display preferences such as your chosen sort order.

littlesongbook.consent.v1

Your answer to the cookie banner, so that you are not asked on every page.

Analytics

If you accept, we use Google Analytics 4 to understand which songs are read and roughly where visitors come from. IP addresses are anonymised. Analytics is loaded only after consent: if you reject, the Google Analytics script is never downloaded and no analytics cookies are set. With analytics accepted, interaction events — viewing a song, saving or unsaving a favorite, sharing, changing the sort order, or following a YouTube link — are reported to Google Analytics together with the song's identifier. Your stored favorites list itself is never uploaded.

Advertising

This site is intended to carry advertising through Google AdSense in order to remain free. As with analytics, advertising scripts load only after you accept. Google may use cookies to serve and measure ads; you can review and change that at any time through the banner, or through Google's ad settings .

We use Google Consent Mode v2. Until you make a choice, advertising and analytics storage are set to denied by default.

Embedded content and outbound links

No videos are embedded on this site. Links to YouTube open in a new tab, at which point YouTube's own privacy policy applies. Fonts are self-hosted, so loading a page here makes no request to Google Fonts or any other third party.

Children

The songs are for children, but the site is written for the adults reading and singing them. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from anyone, of any age.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to access, correct and erase personal data held about you. In practice we hold none: there is no account system, no mailing list and no server-side log tied to you. Analytics data, if you have consented, is held by Google under its own terms. You can withdraw or change your consent at any time:
