Privacy for families
Plain-language summary. Have your legal counsel review before launch.
What we collect
- Parent: your sign-in (email or Google account, held by Google Identity Platform, not copied into our database), consent date, settings.
- Child: a nickname, a cartoon avatar, an age band, progress, stickers and daily play minutes.
- We never ask for a child's real name, photo, email, location or school.
How AI is used
- Core stories are written and reviewed by people before children see them.
- Optional features (Ask Tomi, Make a Story) use Google Gemini on Google Cloud Vertex AI. Google does not use these prompts to train its models.
- Every AI reply passes strict safety filters. Anything blocked is replaced with a gentle message and shown to you in the parent dashboard.
- You can turn live AI features off at any time.
Your controls
- Set a daily play-time limit.
- Download all your family's data as a file.
- Delete your account and all child data instantly.
How we protect and keep it
- Everything is encrypted in transit and at rest. Blocked AI questions get an extra layer of encryption with our own key.
- Blocked AI questions are deleted automatically after 90 days; daily play-time records after 30 days.
- Only our server can read the data. Backups are kept for up to 14 days.
What we never do
- No advertising, no selling data, no third-party trackers.
- No chat between children, no public profiles.
