Children & Family Privacy Notice
This notice explains how Kid / Mio handles information about children in your family. It supplements our Privacy Policy. Please read it before adding a child to your family.
1. Who creates child accounts
Children cannot register on their own. Only a parent (or authorized guardian) with a parent account can create a child profile, set login credentials, and add the child to the family.
2. What we collect about children
- Display name and family username
- Birth date (used to adapt the interface by age group)
- Gender (for avatar selection)
- Interests (optional, for children 10+)
- Task activity, photos submitted for tasks, coins, goals, achievements
- MIO pet progress and educational discoveries
- Push notification token if notifications are enabled on the child’s device
We do not require a child’s email address or phone number.
3. What parents can see
Parents in the same family can view and manage:
- Tasks assigned to the child and completion status
- Photos and reports submitted for tasks
- Coin balance, savings goals, and reward requests
- Progress summaries and achievements
- Child profile details (name, age group, interests)
A second parent joined via family code has the same visibility as the first parent, unless you remove them by leaving the family (account management between parents is described in the app).
4. Push notifications for children
If the child’s device allows notifications, we may send alerts about achievements or reminders. iOS shows a system permission dialog. You can disable notifications in iOS Settings → Notifications → Kid / Mio.
5. Photos
Some tasks may ask the child to attach a photo from the photo library as proof of completion. Photos are stored securely and visible to parents in the family. Do not assign tasks that would cause children to upload inappropriate or third-party private images.
6. No ads, no sale of child data
- We do not display third-party advertising in the child experience.
- We do not sell or rent children’s personal information.
- We do not use child data for behavioral advertising or profiling for marketing.
- We do not use third-party analytics SDKs for cross-app tracking.
7. Deleting a child’s data
Parents can permanently delete a child account:
- Open the child’s profile in the parent app
- Scroll to “Danger zone” / Delete child
- Confirm deletion
This removes the child’s account, tasks, coins, MIO data, and uploaded photos from our systems (subject to brief backup retention described in the Privacy Policy).
Deleting your own parent account may also delete the entire family and all children if you are the only parent — see Terms of Service.
8. Your consent
By creating a child account, you confirm that you are the parent or legal guardian (or have appropriate authority) and consent to our collection and use of the child’s information as described in this notice and the Privacy Policy.
