KidoStars Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 8, 2026

Overview

KidoStars is a parent-managed routine and reward app. A parent or guardian creates the family profile, controls routines and rewards, and decides whether information is backed up.

Information Saved

KidoStars may save:

• Parent name and email address

• Child name, age, avatar, and theme

• Routines and tasks

• Task completion history

• Stars, streaks, and badges

• Rewards and reward requests

• Parent notes

• Reminder and application settings

• Parent PIN configuration

• Google Play Premium purchase status

This information is used to provide the app’s routine, reward, reporting, backup, and parental-control features.

Where Information Is Stored

Family information is primarily stored locally on the user’s device.

If a parent enables automatic Google Drive backup or exports a local backup file, a copy is stored in the location selected by the parent.

KidoStars does not operate a separate cloud account database in the current version.

Google Drive Backup

Google Drive access is provided through Android’s system file picker.

The parent chooses:

• The Google account

• The storage location

• The backup file

KidoStars can update the selected backup file after app changes and restore information when requested by the parent.

Google processes Google Drive information according to Google’s own Privacy Policy and terms.

Children’s Privacy

KidoStars is designed for use under the supervision of a parent or guardian.

Children cannot:

• Create public accounts

• Publish public profiles

• Chat or communicate with other users

• Share content publicly

• Provide location, camera, microphone, or contact information through the app

Parents are responsible for creating and managing child profiles, routines, tasks, rewards, and access controls.

Notifications and Device Features

With permission, KidoStars may use local notifications for:

• Task reminders

• Routine reminders

• Weekly progress summaries

Fingerprint access is handled by Android’s biometric system. KidoStars does not receive or store fingerprint images or biometric data.

Information Not Collected or Used

KidoStars does not:

• Collect precise or approximate location

• Access the camera or microphone

• Access contacts

• Provide child chat or social networking

• Create public child profiles

• Use advertising SDKs

• Display third-party advertisements

• Sell personal or family information

• Use family information for targeted advertising

Google Play Purchases

If a parent purchases KidoStars Lifetime Premium, Google Play processes the payment.

KidoStars may receive:

• Product ownership status

• Purchase status

• Purchase token

• Purchase acknowledgement status

This information is used to unlock and restore Premium features.

KidoStars does not receive or store payment card or banking details. Google processes payments according to Google Play’s policies.

Data Sharing

KidoStars does not sell personal information.

Information is shared only when required to provide a parent-selected service, such as:

• Google Drive backup

• Google Play purchase processing

• Android notification and biometric features

These services are governed by their providers’ respective privacy policies.

Data Retention and Deletion

Information remains on the device until it is:

• Edited or deleted by the parent

• Removed using Delete local account in Settings

• Cleared through Android application settings

• Removed when the app is uninstalled

Backup files saved on the device or Google Drive are not automatically removed when the local account is deleted. Parents must delete those backup files separately from their selected storage location.

Security

KidoStars provides optional Parent PIN and device biometric controls to protect access to parent features.

No electronic storage method is completely secure. Parents should protect their:

• Device

• Google account

• Parent PIN

• Exported backup files

Child Mode should not be considered a replacement for Android device-level parental controls.

Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated when KidoStars features or legal requirements change.

The updated policy will display a revised effective date. Continued use of KidoStars after an update means the revised policy applies.
