ABCPal Privacy Policy
Last Updated: April 18, 2025
Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Nik Edmiidz ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, and discloses information about you when you use our mobile application ABCPal ("the App").
We are committed to protecting your privacy and the privacy of children who use our application. ABCPal is designed for children aged 3-6 with parental involvement.
Information We Collect
ABCPal is designed with privacy as a priority. We collect very minimal information:
- User Name: The app stores only the child's first name locally on your device to provide a personalized experience. This information never leaves your device and is not transmitted to us or any third parties.
- Usage Data: The app stores progress information about which letters have been mastered. This information is stored only locally on your device and is not transmitted to us or any third parties.
ABCPal does not collect:
- Personal information beyond the first name
- Location data
- Device information
- Usage analytics
- Photos, videos, or audio recordings
How We Use Information
The limited information stored by ABCPal is used solely to:
- Provide a personalized learning experience
- Track progress within the app
- Enable core functionality
Data Storage and Security
All information collected by ABCPal is stored locally on your device using standard iOS data storage. We do not transmit, store, or process this information on external servers.
Data Sharing
We do not share any user data with third parties because:
- We do not collect any data beyond what is stored locally on your device
- The app does not connect to the internet for operation
- There are no analytics services, advertising networks, or social media integrations
Children's Privacy
ABCPal is designed for use by children aged 3-6 with parental involvement. We recognize the importance of children's privacy and comply with applicable laws regarding children's privacy.
As we do not collect personal information that leaves the device, and no information is transmitted online, the app provides a secure environment for children's learning.
Your Rights and Choices
As all data is stored locally on your device, you control your data completely:
- To delete all app data, you can uninstall the app from your device
- To reset progress within the app, you can reinstall the app
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date.
