For grown-ups
The Space Cadets corner is a free, ad-free space for children to learn about space through quizzes, building and play. It was designed with the UK Information Commissioner's Age Appropriate Design Code (the Children's Code) in mind, so it's private by default.
What we collect: nothing
- No accounts, sign-ups, email addresses or passwords.
- No ads, no analytics, no tracking pixels and no cookies.
- Fonts, pictures and code all come from this website, so no other company is contacted while your child plays.
- Your child's first name (for their licence), stickers, rocket, aliens and wish-stars are saved only in this browser (local storage on your device). They are never sent to us or anyone else.
How it keeps children safe
- There is no chat and no way to type messages to anyone.
- Links that leave the Space Cadets corner (including the grown-ups' part of this website) are behind a grown-up check: a quick sum for an adult to answer.
- Sound is off until someone turns it on, and nothing plays by itself.
- "Read it to me" uses your device's own built-in voice; the words are not sent anywhere.
- Animations switch off automatically if your device is set to reduce motion.
- Buttons are big and easy to tap, and text is large and high-contrast.

Printing
