Children's Privacy Notice
Version 2026-11
Uswazi Wazi Kids is a learning academy for children ages 1 to 10. This notice explains, in plain words, what we collect about children, why, and the choices parents have. Parents are asked to agree to it before any child profile is created.
Who we are
Uswazi Wazi Kids is operated by Uswazi Wazi. Contact us about privacy at security@uswaziwazi.dev.
What we collect about your child
- Profile: a nickname, an animal avatar, birth year, learning level and language. We ask you not to use a full name.
- Learning activity: lessons started and finished, quiz answers, stars earned and time spent, so lessons can adapt and your screen-time limits work.
- Device basics: standard technical information needed to run the service securely (for example, the type of browser).
We do not collect a child's photo, voice, last name, school, address, location, email or phone number. Children cannot message other people, post anything publicly, or share contact details in the app.
What we collect about you, the parent
- Your name, email and password (to run your account), your country and language.
- A record of your consent: the notice version, date, and that a card check was completed. The $0.50 check is refunded immediately and we do not store your card; Stripe processes the payment.
How we use it
- To run lessons, track progress, suggest what to learn next and show you reports.
- To enforce the screen time and settings you choose.
- To keep the service secure and fix problems.
We do not show ads, we do not sell or rent information, and we do not use children's information to build advertising profiles.
The AI teacher (when it launches)
A future AI teacher will help with lessons. It will be off unless you switch it on for a child. Messages will be checked by safety filters, personal details will be blocked, and you will be able to read the conversation history. We will update this notice and ask for your consent again before it starts.
Who can see it
- You, and any co-parent or guardian you add to your family.
- Our service providers, only to run the app: Supabase (database and storage), Stripe (payments) and our hosting provider. They may not use it for anything else.
- Authorised staff, only when needed for support or safety. Their access is logged.
- Authorities, only if the law requires it.
How long we keep it
We keep a child's profile and learning history while the profile exists. If you delete a profile, it and its learning data are deleted. If you withdraw consent, all child profiles in your family are switched off and stop collecting data.
Your choices and rights
- Review your child's information in your family dashboard at any time.
- Change or delete a child's profile from your family page.
- Withdraw consent from your family page; we then stop collecting your child's information.
- Ask us any question, or ask for a copy of your child's data, at the email above.
Changes to this notice
If we change how we handle children's information, we will update the version number above and ask for your consent again before the change applies to your child.
