Poffykids Privacy Policy
INTRODUCTION
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully before using the Poffykids app. This policy explains what information may be processed when you use the Poffykids mobile app, in-app content, games, support links, and related services, and for what purposes that information may be used. By downloading, opening, or using Poffykids, you confirm that you have read and accepted this Privacy Policy. Because the app is intended for children, use of the app by a child should take place with the supervision and permission of a parent or legal guardian.
DEFINITIONS
“App” means the mobile children’s learning app named Poffykids.
“We”, “us”, or “Poffykids” means the developer that provides the Poffykids app and related services.
“User” means the person using the app and, for child users, the relevant parent or legal guardian.
“Information” means information that may be processed under this policy. In Poffykids, this usually means technical and usage settings stored locally on the device, such as game progress, sound or music preferences, and access status. If you send a support request, your email address and the information you voluntarily include in your support message may also be included.
PURPOSES
The purpose of Poffykids is to provide children with a safe, simple, fun, and age-appropriate learning experience. Information may be used only for the following purposes:
- To keep the app working properly
- To remember local app state such as game progress, settings, and access preferences
- To manage access status such as in-app purchases or subscriptions
- To respond to support requests
- To evaluate errors, security issues, or misuse
- To improve the app and the user experience
CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
Poffykids is an educational app intended for preschool and early-learning children. We do not knowingly ask children for, and do not aim to collect, personal information such as name, surname, address, phone number, photo, voice recording, location information, or similar information. The app is not designed for children to create accounts, open profiles, send messages, share public content, or connect to social networks. Support, purchases, rating, and similar adult-facing actions should be handled through parental controls or device/platform mechanisms. If you are a parent or legal guardian and believe that your child has sent personal information to us, you may contact us at support@countpop.app. Where appropriate, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information or restrict its use.
SCOPE OF INFORMATION COLLECTED OR PROCESSED
Poffykids is designed as an app that does not require account creation. In the current app structure, the following information may be processed:
- Game progress and unlock status
- Sound and music preferences
- Local records related to in-app access or subscription status
- Your email address and the information you share in your message when you send a support request
- The effect of App Store purchases or subscription transactions on access status
Credit card information, payment account information, or billing information is not collected directly by Poffykids. Purchases and subscriptions made through the App Store are processed by Apple.
SUPPORT SERVICES
You may send us an email by using the support link in the app. In that case, we may receive your email address, message content, and any information you add to your message. This support information is used only to review and answer your support request, resolve the issue, and improve the app where necessary. We do not use support information for advertising, profiling, or targeting children.
NEWSLETTER AND MARKETING
Poffykids currently does not offer newsletter subscription or child-directed marketing communication inside the app. If a newsletter or similar communication channel is offered in the future, it will be directed only to a parent or legal guardian and this policy will be updated.
THIRD-PARTY CONTENT, ADVERTISING, AND ANALYTICS
In its current structure, Poffykids does not use third-party advertising networks, child-directed behavioral advertising, social network plugins, or third-party analytics SDKs. If advertising, analytics, or similar third-party services are used in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated and will clearly state what information those services may process. Age-appropriate methods that comply with applicable laws will be used to protect child users’ privacy.
IN-APP PURCHASES AND SUBSCRIPTIONS
Poffykids may offer in-app purchases or subscription options for access to some content or features. These transactions take place through the App Store and Apple’s payment infrastructure. Your payment method, card information, or sensitive Apple account information is not viewed or stored by Poffykids. To make purchase or subscription status work inside the app, technical information such as access period, unlock status, or similar records may be stored locally on your device.
SHARING OF INFORMATION
We do not sell, rent, or share personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.
Information may be shared only in the following situations:
- When we must comply with a legal obligation
- When requested by a court, authorized public authority, or legal process
- When we believe in good faith that it is necessary to provide security, protect our rights, or prevent misuse
- With service providers such as email or infrastructure providers used to respond to your support request, only to the extent necessary
SECURITY
We take reasonable technical, administrative, and physical measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage over the internet, email, or digital systems is completely risk-free. Therefore, absolute security cannot be guaranteed.
RETENTION PERIOD
Game progress, settings, and access information stored on the device may remain on your device for as long as necessary for the app to work. Deleting the app or resetting device settings may remove this local information. Information related to support requests may be retained for as long as necessary to answer the request, keep records, comply with legal obligations, or meet reasonable business needs.
FORCE MAJEURE AND EVENTS OUTSIDE OUR CONTROL
To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may not be responsible for security incidents caused by events outside our reasonable control, unauthorized access attempts, system failures, natural disasters, service provider interruptions, or similar causes.
CHANGES
This Privacy Policy may change from time to time. If significant changes are made, notice may be provided in the app or on our website where appropriate. The current policy will remain accessible inside the app. Continuing to use the app means that you accept the current policy.
GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
This Privacy Policy is interpreted together with the principles set out in the relevant Terms of Use, subject to mandatory consumer, children’s privacy, and data protection rules. In any dispute, mandatory laws and competent authorities will be taken into account.
