Privacy and use of this site

The World, Made Simple collects only the information needed to send the briefing and understand how the site is used.

Forms

Newsletter signups store your name when provided, email address, consent and signup source. You can unsubscribe or ask for correction or deletion through the site owner.

Reading and discovery activity

Analytics events may include a one-way hash of the connecting IP address so the editorial dashboard can count unique connections without storing raw IP addresses. Guest reading progress stays in the current browser session. When you use a free My World profile, reading confidence, story states, XP, challenges and map progress are stored against your account so they can follow you across devices. This information is not sold or sent to an advertising network.

Editorial sources

Story sources support the explanations. Sponsorship or merchandise interest never changes the editorial conclusion or source selection.

Questions and corrections

For a correction, privacy request or general question, contact the site owner directly.
