Kids Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes our policies and procedures regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information when you or your child uses our children's applications ("Applications"), and informs you about your privacy rights and how the law protects your child.

This policy applies to all ABC App Studios applications designed for children and families. For our general audience applications, please refer to our General Privacy Policy.

We take children's privacy very seriously. Our children's Applications do not collect any personal information from children. We do not display advertisements, and we comply with COPPA, GDPR, and CCPA requirements.

2. Regulatory Compliance

• GDPR — General Data Protection Regulation of the European Union (including provisions for children's data under Article 8)
• CCPA — California Consumer Privacy Act
• Google Play Families Policy — Google's requirements for apps in the "Designed for Families" program

We are committed to ensuring that our children's Applications comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding children's privacy.

3. Data Collection and Use

Information We Do NOT Collect

Our children's Applications do not collect any personal information from users, including but not limited to:

• Names, email addresses, phone numbers, or physical addresses
• Photos, videos, or audio
• Precise or coarse location data
• Contact lists, calendar data, or browsing history
• Device identifiers that could be used to identify a child personally
• Financial or payment information

No Usage, Diagnostic or Crash Data

Our children's Applications collect no usage statistics, diagnostic data or crash reports, and they contain no analytics, measurement or crash-reporting SDK. Nothing about how a child uses an Application is sent to us. Google Play may collect its own statistics about installs and crashes as the distributor; that data is held by Google under its own policy and we receive no personal data through it.

Data Required for App Functionality

Our Applications may store settings and preferences locally on the device (e.g., selected sounds, timer settings). This data is stored only on the device and is never transmitted to us; we operate no server for our Applications.

E-mails You Send Us

If a parent or guardian writes to us at support@abcappstudios.com, we receive what that e-mail contains. This is the only personal data that ever reaches us, and it reaches us only because it was sent to us. We use it only to answer and to fix the problem reported.

4. Children's Privacy

We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13 (or the applicable age in your jurisdiction). Our children's Applications are designed to be used without providing any personal information.

If we do happen to obtain any personal information through support requests or other correspondence, it will be treated with the strictest confidentiality. Such information will never be shared with any other entities and will only be retained for the purpose of resolving the support request. We will delete such information upon request.

If you are a parent or guardian and you believe that your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from a child without verification of parental consent, we take immediate steps to remove that information from our systems.

If we need to rely on consent as a legal basis for processing information and your country requires consent from a parent, we will require your parent's consent before we collect and use that information.

5. Third-Party Services

Our children's Applications embed no third-party SDK that collects data. The only third party involved is Google Play, which distributes the Applications and, in Applications that offer in-app purchases, processes those purchases through the Google Play Billing library under Google's own policy.

Our children's Applications:

• Do NOT use advertising SDKs — No advertisements are displayed
• Do NOT use behavioral tracking — No user profiling or targeted content
• Do NOT share data with third parties for any purpose

6. In-App Purchases

Some of our children's Applications may offer in-app purchases. All transactions are processed entirely by Google Play and require parental authentication (as configured in your Google Play settings). We do not collect, store, or have access to any payment information.

7. Parental Rights

As a parent or guardian, you have the right to:

• Review any personal information we may have collected about your child (we do not collect personal information, but you may verify this)
• Request deletion of any data related to your child
• Refuse further collection or use of your child's data
• Contact us at any time with questions or concerns about our data practices

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the email address provided below. We will respond to your request promptly and in accordance with applicable law.

8. Security

Because our children's Applications send us no data, what they store stays on the device and its security depends on the device. We take reasonable measures to keep the e-mail correspondence we hold confidential, and we never share it. No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.

9. Data Retention

We hold no data from our children's Applications. What an Application stores stays on the device and is deleted when you clear the Application's data or uninstall it.

The only data we keep is e-mail correspondence sent to us. We keep it only as long as we need it to answer and to handle any follow-up about the same question, and after that only where the law requires us to keep it. You can ask us at any time to delete it.

10. Transfer of Data

Our children's Applications send us no data, so there is no Application data for us to transfer.

E-mails sent to our support address are passed on by our domain's e-mail forwarding service (Cloudflare) and stored by our e-mail provider, Google (Gmail). Their servers may be located outside your country, where data protection laws may differ. We do not pass these e-mails on to anyone else. Data handled by Google Play is processed by Google under its own policy.

11. Links to Other Websites

Our children's Applications do not contain links to external websites or third-party services that are not appropriate for children. If any links are present, they are protected by parental gates as required by Google Play's Families Policy.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date at the top.

You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
