Privacy
Privacy, in plain language
This is a pilot notice for invited families. It is not a legal certification; the owner reviews it for the families’ location before launch.
Reading lessons
Anyone can read lessons and use activities without signing in. We don’t use advertising trackers, session recording or third-party analytics.
Families
- Family accounts are by invitation only. A grown-up signs in with Google; we use the verified email only to match the invitation.
- For each child we keep a nickname, a picture choice, an age band, a language and optional interests. We never ask for a child’s surname, school, grade, email, phone, address, marks or photo.
- A child uses a separate paired browser. The child’s browser never receives the grown-up’s sign-in.
Learning history and wishes
- We save what a paired learner explores, practises and bookmarks, and the topics they wish for. Reading a page is never treated as mastery.
- A child sees only their own wishes. Their grown-up can see their children’s wishes. The person who builds the library sees the question text without the child’s name or family.
- Before a wish is used to plan a lesson, personal details are removed. Only that cleaned question is given to the AI writing assistant on the owner’s computer — never names, emails, family details or learning history. Note that the AI service processes what it is given; it is not fully on-device.
Keeping and deleting
Detailed activity records are kept about 90 days; summaries and bookmarks while the profile exists; answered or withdrawn wishes about 180 days; read notifications 90 days. A grown-up can export the family’s data or delete the family from Family settings. Deleting first disconnects every learning device.
Signing out
Signing out of Curiosity doesn’t sign your browser out of Google. On a shared computer, also sign out of Google, or use a separate browser profile for your child.
