This Privacy Policy describes how **Bible Stories for Kids** ("the App", "we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects your information. The App is designed as a family-friendly audio and video library for children and parents to explore faith together.
We are committed to protecting your privacy and complying with global children's privacy laws, including the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and GDPR-K.
## 1. Data Collection and Usage
**We do not collect, store, or share any personal information (PII) on our servers.**
The App is designed to be used without an account. We do not ask for your email address, phone number, or any other identifying information to use the App.
## 2. Local Storage (Device Only)
To provide a personalized and seamless experience, the App saves certain data **strictly locally on your device**:
* **Family Profiles:** The names and avatars you create for local profiles.
* **App Preferences:** Your selected theme (light/dark mode) and sleep timer settings.
* **Listening & Viewing History:** Your saved favorites, recently listened stories, and playback progress (Continue Listening).
This data remains entirely on your phone or tablet. We have no access to it. If you uninstall the App or clear its data, this local information will be permanently deleted.
## 3. Streaming and Internet Connection
The App requires an active internet connection because the audio stories and animated videos are streamed online. When you play a story or video, your device communicates with our media hosting servers. This process temporarily utilizes your IP address for the sole technical purpose of delivering the media files to your device. We do not store, log, or use IP addresses for tracking or profiling.
## 4. Third-Party Services and Advertising (If Applicable)
*Note: If your app does not have ads, you can remove this section. If it uses AdMob, keep it.*
To support the App's development, we may use third-party advertising services such as **Google AdMob**. Because our App is directed at families and children:
* Ads are configured to be **Family-Friendly** and **Non-Personalized**.
* We do not allow third-party ad networks to collect personal data or use behavioral tracking/profiling on our users.
* Ad networks may collect anonymous technical information (such as device type or network info) strictly for contextual advertising, frequency capping, and fraud prevention.
For more information, please review the [Google Privacy Policy](https://policies.google.com/privacy).
## 5. Children's Privacy
Bible Stories for Kids is built for families to use together. We do not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13 (or the applicable age of digital consent in your region). If you are a parent or guardian and believe we have inadvertently collected personal data from your child, please contact us immediately so we can take steps to remove it.
## 6. Security
Since we do not collect or store user data on our servers, the risk of data breaches is fundamentally minimized. All media streaming and communication with third-party services (like non-personalized ads) are conducted over secure, encrypted connections (HTTPS).
## 7. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Any updates will be posted on this page, and the "Effective Date" at the top will be updated accordingly.
