If you decide to join the newsletter via any of the many sign up forms located throughout this website, then your first name and email address are required.

Blog Comments
Love something you read on my blog? Then leaving a comment is a great way to do that! I personally love hearing your feedback. If you choose to leave a comment on a blog post, then please be aware that the comment is then public and visible to anyone who reads the comment section. Your email address is never shared or disclosed, but your name and comment will be visible to others.
It is highly recommended that you avoid leaving detailed personal information in your comments (like your last name.)
I reserve the right to remove comments deemed as inappropriate, threatening, profane, or spammy without notice.
Store Purchases
Products in the Fun With Mama store are sold via WooCommerce. Your name, email address, and country are required during the checkout process. This information is required in order to send you the purchased product and to determine whether or not the EU VAT tax should be applied to your purchase.
The details you enter are stored by the third party applications. All payments are made through PayPal, which does not store your financial information once the transaction has been processed.
I also sell products via affiliate programs. Each program collects and retains their own data. I do not have access to the personal information that is collected by these affiliate programs.

Fun With Mama accepts sponsorships, paid advertisements and other forms of compensation.
Sponsored posts: A sponsored post is a blog post written in exchange of compensation for writing about a product. However, all opinions and thoughts are true and honest. This compensation may influence the content of posts but never my honest opinion. I will only recommend products that I have tried, tested and used myself (unless otherwise noted). These posts will be clearly noted.
The views and opinions expressed on this blog are purely mine and my children’s experiences. Any product claim, statistic, quote or other representation about a product or service should be verified with the manufacturer, provider or party in question.
What this all means is that I will only recommend products that I believe are wonderful and I will give you my fair evaluation.
Amazon Affiliates: We are a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for us to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites. This program provides blogs like myself with compensation for advertising for Amazon.com and for linking to Amazon.com products when appropriate in a post. Having an Amazon.com link in a post does not influence my feelings on that product and all opinions stated remain my own. Amazon, as a third party, also uses cookies to track their advertising on my site and their links. You are welcome to read more about the Amazon Affiliates program in their Operating Agreement.
Parental supervision: Please note that parental (or teacher) supervision is required for ALL activities posted on Fun With Mama.
