Privacy Policy

1. Introduction & Scope

Welcome to Ai Kids Guru ("we", "our", or "us"). We are committed to protecting the privacy of children and their families. This Privacy Policy explains how our mobile application and related website (collectively, the "Service") collect, use, process, and protect information when you and your child use our app.

By downloading, accessing, or using Ai Kids Guru, you acknowledge that you are a parent, legal guardian, or educator authorizing a child’s use under your supervision.

2. Compliance with Children’s Privacy Laws (COPPA & Google Play Families Policy)

Because our application is designed for children under the age of 13 (and under 16 in the European Union), we adhere to the highest standard of international privacy protocols:

• COPPA Compliant: We do not collect personal contact information directly from children without verifiable parental consent.
• Google Play Families Policy: Our app uses family-certified SDKs only, does not transmit Android Advertising ID (AAID) for ad targeting, and includes zero behavioral advertising.
• Apple App Store Kids Category: We strictly adhere to Guideline 1.3 and Guideline 5.1.4 prohibiting third-party analytics that identify children.

3. Information We Collect and How We Use It

4. Voice AI Data Handling & Guardrails

When a child uses the spoken voice tutor feature:

• Audio recording occurs only when the child actively presses or activates the voice button.
• The spoken audio stream is converted to text solely to generate educational, age-appropriate answers.
• All AI outputs pass through automated safety guardrails to ensure topics remain wholesome, educational, and free from adult content or commercial endorsements.
• Voice data is never sold to data brokers or used for targeted commercial advertising.

5. Third-Party Services & Advertising Policy

100% Ad-Free Guarantee: Ai Kids Guru contains zero third-party advertising SDKs. No commercial ads, banner advertisements, or behavioral tracking trackers are present in the app.

Any cloud infrastructure providers we utilize (such as secure cloud servers for speech-to-text processing) operate strictly as data processors under binding contractual confidentiality and child-privacy compliance agreements.

6. Parental Rights & Data Deletion

As a parent or legal guardian, you hold full authority over your child's data. You have the right to:

• Review all learning records and activity history associated with your account.
• Refuse further collection or use of your child’s information.
• Request the immediate, permanent deletion of your child’s account and all associated data.

To request immediate account and data deletion, visit our public Account & Data Deletion Portal or email us directly at privacy@aikidsguru.com.

7. Data Security & Retention

We implement industry-standard administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect all information:

• All network transmissions use TLS 1.3 cryptographic encryption.
• Stored databases are encrypted at rest using AES-256 standard.
• We retain learning progress data only as long as an active account is maintained by the parent. Inactive accounts are automatically purged after 12 months.
