Kaleido Club — Privacy Policy

Effective date: [DATE] · Last updated: [DATE]

Kaleido Club (“Kaleido Club,” “we,” “us”) is a family learning-and-play app operated by [LEGAL ENTITY]. We built it to be ad-free, and we do not sell children’s personal information. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices parents have. It is written to align with the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and similar rules.

1. Parents are in control

Kaleido Club has no open sign-up. A parent or legal guardian requests access (joins the waitlist and agrees to this policy), we approve the family, and only then does the parent create profiles for their children. Children cannot create accounts themselves, and there is no public chat.

2. Information we collect

From the parent/guardian

• Email address, parent name, and the interests/age range you share when requesting access.
• A password (stored only as a salted cryptographic hash — we never store it in readable form).
• Your parental-consent confirmation and its timestamp.

About the child (entered by the parent)

• A display name or first name and an avatar the parent chooses.
• In-app progress, scores, saved creations (artwork, music), and settings.

We do not knowingly collect precise geolocation, contacts, photos from the device, or use third-party advertising/behavioral-tracking networks. Optional character voices are generated by our own text-to-speech service from a fixed word set, not from anything a child records, unless a feature explicitly uses the microphone on-device (e.g., pitch practice) — audio for those features is processed in the browser and not stored by us. [Confirm this matches the shipped features.]

3. How we use information

• To create and manage the parent account and child profiles.
• To save progress and creations so children can pick up where they left off.
• To operate, secure, and improve the service (e.g., preventing abuse).
• To contact the parent about access, approvals, and important service notices.

4. What we do NOT do

• No third-party advertising and no ad targeting.
• We do not sell or rent personal information.
• We do not require a child to disclose more than is reasonably necessary to participate.

5. Sharing

We share personal information only with service providers that help us run the app (for example, hosting and our text-to-speech generation), under obligations to protect it, or where required by law. [List sub-processors.]

Links to our other channels

Our parent-facing pages link to Kaleido’s other homes on the web — our YouTube channel (songs and videos) and our shop. We do not embed YouTube videos or any third-party players inside the child experience. Those services are operated by their own companies (Google/YouTube, Shopify) under their own privacy policies, and we encourage parents to supervise viewing there — for younger children, YouTube Kids may be a better fit for watching our songs.

6. Parental rights

As a parent/guardian you may review your child’s information, ask us to correct or delete it, and withdraw consent (which ends the child’s use of the app). To make a request, contact privacy@kaleidoslearningworld.com. We will verify you are the parent on the account before acting.

7. Data retention & deletion

We keep profile and progress data while the family account is active. On a verified deletion request, or after 24 months of account inactivity, we delete or de-identify the child’s personal information. [Counsel: confirm the 24-month retention period.]

8. Security

Passwords are salted and hashed, sessions are protected, traffic is served over HTTPS, and access to production data is limited. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your family’s information.

9. Changes

If we make material changes we will update this page and, where appropriate, notify parents by email.
