AgileParenting.net is the brain-child that has been jointly conceived by Wang Man, Xiaoman and Brigitte. We draw inspiration from each other and discuss, select and finally publish on this blog what looks relevant to the agile parenting community. This is a team sport which we enjoy and which will hopefully help making families happier.
However, from a German/European press law and GDPR perspective, one entity must be accountable for the content and the handling of our visitors’ personal data. Furthermore, we offer a small range of products on this site which has to have impact on a tax statement once agile parenting enthusiasts actually opt for purchasing them. To make things simple, Brigitte is standing in for all these aspects. For details, please refer to the Imprint.
The way that we handle data mirrors exactly how we manage everything else: with sincere respect and great care to the individual’s personal requirements. At the same time, this blog is designed as a platform for the agile parenting community that is interested in a certain sense of closeness and genuine, personal interaction.
