The short version
Playloom Kids collects no data. None. There are no accounts, no ads, no analytics, no tracking and nothing to buy. The app never connects to the internet. Everything your child does in it stays on your device, and you can erase it at any time.
Effective 2 October 2026. This policy covers the Playloom Kids app for iPhone and iPad, made by Mihai Serban.
Who the app is for
Playloom Kids is made for children aged 3 to 4 and their grown-ups. Because young children use it, we built it so that there is nothing to collect in the first place. We follow the United States Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Apple's rules for apps in the Kids Category by not gathering any personal information from anyone, child or adult.
What stays on your device
To work, the app keeps a small file on your device only. It holds:
- the child's first name or nickname, if you chose to type one. It is only used so the narrator's screens for grown-ups can say "Ana played" instead of "your child played". You can leave it blank;
- the child's birth month and year, which decide which games are shown. The app never asks for a birthday date, a surname or anything else;
- whether English is spoken at home, which sets the starting level;
- which games were played and which words were found, so the app can bring them back on later days;
- your settings: music on or off, games per sitting, and the level.
This file never leaves the device. It is not backed up to any server of ours, we cannot see it, and nobody else can. Deleting the app deletes it. You can also wipe it inside the app: open the grown-ups' area, choose Settings, then Reset.
If you use iCloud Backup on your device, Apple may include the app's file in your own encrypted device backup, as it does for every app. That backup is yours and is governed by Apple's privacy policy, not by us.
What we do not do
- We do not collect names, email addresses, locations, photos, contacts, voice recordings or device identifiers.
- We do not use analytics, crash reporting services, advertising networks or any third-party software development kit that sends data anywhere.
- We do not show advertisements, and there are no in-app purchases or subscriptions.
- We do not ask for access to the camera, microphone, photo library, location or notifications. The app works entirely offline, including in airplane mode.
- We do not link out of the app anywhere a child could reach. The grown-ups' area opens only with a press-and-hold.
Apple's App Privacy label
On the App Store, Playloom Kids is labelled Data Not Collected. That label is accurate, and we will update it and this policy before any future version changes what the app does with data.
Your rights
Because we hold no data about you or your child, there is nothing for us to show, correct or delete on request. Everything is under your control on your own device. If you believe the app has done anything described here differently, please write to us and we will look into it straight away.
Changes to this policy
If a future version of the app ever collects anything, this page will say what and why before that version is released, and the date at the top will change. You can always find the current policy at this address and from the app's page on the App Store.
