Age Requirements

• Children under 13 in the United States may only use our Services with verifiable parental or guardian consent.
• Children in the EEA below the applicable age of digital consent (13–16 depending on EU member state) may only use account-based features with parental/guardian consent, in accordance with GDPR Article 8.
• Where our apps do not require account creation and collect only anonymous aggregate data, they may be used without parental consent, subject to platform parental controls (Apple Family Sharing, Google Family Link).

What Data We Collect from Children

• Account-free app experiences: Only anonymous, aggregated crash reports and performance data — no persistent identifiers or personal information.
• Account-based features (with prior parental consent): Parent's email address (not the child's), a username chosen by the parent, and app usage/progress data.
• We do not collect from child users: real name, home address, phone number, precise geolocation, photographs, biometric data, or any sensitive personal information.
• We collect only the minimum data necessary for the feature to function, in compliance with COPPA's data minimization requirement and GDPR Article 5(1)(c).

Verifiable Parental Consent Process

For features that require data collection from children under 13, we use the following COPPA-compliant consent methods:

• Email-plus verification: A parent provides their email address; we send a verification email requiring affirmative confirmation. The child's account is not activated until the parent completes this step.
• Platform parental controls: We respect Apple Family Sharing and Google Family Link parental consent mechanisms where applicable.
• Records of parental consent (date, method, and scope) are retained as required by applicable law.

Direct Notice to Parents

Before or at the time of collecting any personal information from a child, we provide a direct notice to the parent or guardian stating: the specific data collected, how it is used, whether it is shared with third parties, and how to exercise parental rights. A link to our full Privacy Policy is always provided.

No Conditioning of Participation

In compliance with 16 C.F.R. § 312.7, we do not condition a child's participation in any activity on disclosing more personal information than is reasonably necessary for that activity.

Advertising & Commercial Restrictions

• We do not engage in behavioral advertising targeted at children.
• Any advertising within children's apps is contextual only and complies with COPPA, FTC guidelines, and GDPR Recital 38.
• We do not create behavioral profiles of child users for any purpose.
• We do not sell children's personal information to any third party.
• We do not use children's data for purposes beyond the educational/entertainment purpose of the specific app.

Third-Party Service Providers & Children's Data

Any third-party service providers that process children's data are contractually required to: process data only for the specified purpose; maintain equivalent child privacy protections; not re-disclose, sell, or use children's data for their own purposes; and comply with COPPA and all applicable children's data protection laws.

Parental Rights

Parents and legal guardians have the right to: review information we hold about their child; request correction of inaccurate data; request deletion of their child's data (completed within 30 days of a verified request); refuse further collection or use of their child's data; and withdraw consent at any time without penalty.
