Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

In short: KinnyApps builds family-friendly apps (including Kinny). This policy explains what we do with personal information when you use our websites and services.

KinnyApps ("we," "us," or "our") operates kinnyapps.com and related products. If you have questions about this policy, contact us.

2. Data collection

In short: We collect account details, usage data, and information you choose to share—only what's needed to run and improve our services.

Depending on how you use KinnyApps, we may collect: account and profile information (such as name, email, and parent/guardian contact details); information you submit through forms or support channels; device and log data (such as app version, general location derived from IP, and diagnostic events); and payment or billing-related information processed by our payment partners (we do not store full payment card numbers on our servers).

3. How we use information

In short: We use data to provide the product, keep accounts safe, fix bugs, and communicate with you about the service—not to sell personal information.

We process information to operate and maintain our services; authenticate users; personalize in-app experiences where appropriate; detect abuse and improve security; analyze aggregated usage to improve performance and UX; comply with law; and send service-related notices. We do not sell your personal information or your children's personal information.

4. Security

In short: We use technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect your information—but no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

We implement measures such as encryption in transit where appropriate, access controls, monitoring, and vendor diligence. You can help by using a strong password and keeping account credentials private.

5. Children's privacy

In short: Family products need extra care. Parent and guardian controls are central to how Kinny is designed, and we limit what we collect from younger users to what's appropriate for the service.

Where our services are used by children, we rely on verifiable parental consent and parental oversight as required by applicable law (including COPPA in the United States, where it applies). We do not knowingly collect more information than necessary, and we do not use children's personal information for behavioral advertising. Parents and guardians may review, correct, or delete certain information—or contact us for assistance.

6. Sharing and subprocessors

In short: We share information only with service providers who help us run KinnyApps (like hosting and email), under strict agreements—not with data brokers.

We may disclose information if required by law, to protect rights and safety, or as part of a merger or acquisition with appropriate safeguards. International users: your information may be processed in countries where we or our providers operate.

7. Your choices & rights

In short: You can access, update, or delete certain data in the product, and you may have additional rights depending on where you live.

Depending on your region, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export personal data, or to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us. You may opt out of non-essential marketing emails via unsubscribe links where available.

8. Retention

We retain information only as long as needed for the purposes described here, unless a longer period is required by law.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version on this page and adjust the "Last updated" date. Material changes may be communicated through the product or by email where appropriate.
