## What it is

Santa’s Grotto is a seasonal microsite, not a live identity system and not a compliance product for children. It shows a playful Nice List decision, stores wishes only in the visitor’s browser for Santa’s eyes only, offers a Christmas movie wheel curated from Rotten Tomatoes’ Best Christmas Movies with family-leaning filters, and includes a family Santa tracker inspired by the classic NORAD westbound Christmas Eve route (not affiliated with NORAD).

## What it is not

- Not a real Santa booking service or physical grotto.
- Not age-assurance compliance on its own.
- Not a cloud wish database - wishes stay on-device unless the visitor clears storage.
- Not open after 18:00 UK on 31 December 2026 (season lock: “Back next year”).
