The short version. Kiddy Crosswords collects nothing about you or your child. There are no accounts, no ads, no analytics, no tracking, and no third-party software of any kind inside the app. Nothing your child does in the game ever leaves their device.
This policy explains, in plain terms, what the app does and does not do with information. It applies to the Kiddy Crosswords app for iPhone, iPad and Android — previously called Picture Crosswords For Kids, and Easy Crosswords For Kids on Google Play — published by PLURIFORM S.R.L. (“we”, “us”). We wrote it to be read by a parent in two minutes, not by a lawyer in twenty.
Information we collect
None. The app does not ask for, gather, or transmit any personal information. Specifically, it does not collect:
- Names, email addresses, phone numbers, or postal addresses
- Dates of birth, photographs, audio, or video
- Contacts, calendars, photos, microphone, or camera — the app never requests these permissions
- Location of any kind, precise or approximate
- Device identifiers, advertising identifiers, or IP addresses
- Usage analytics, crash reports, event logs, or behavioural data
There is no sign-up, no login, and no user account. The app works identically whether or not the device is online.
What is stored on the device
The app saves a small amount of information locally so the game can pick up where your child left off. This stays on the device, is readable only by this app, and is never sent anywhere:
- Which crosswords have been finished, and which one to resume
- The chosen language
- The sound and vibration switches
- A flag recording whether the full game has been unlocked
Deleting the app removes all of it. A grown-up can also erase it at any time from Settings → Reset progress inside the app.
Advertising and tracking
There is no advertising in the app — no banners, no interstitials, no “rewarded” video, no cross-promotion of other apps. We do not track users across apps or websites, we do not use the Advertising Identifier on iPhone and iPad or the Advertising ID on Android, and on iOS the app never presents the App Tracking Transparency prompt because there is nothing to ask about. No data is sold or shared with anyone, because none is gathered in the first place.
Third-party software
The app contains no third-party SDKs, no analytics libraries, no advertising networks, and no social media components. It is built entirely from the platform’s own frameworks and our own code: Apple’s on iPhone and iPad; Google’s on Android, including Google’s Play Billing library, which handles purchases the way the App Store does on iOS.
Purchases
The full game can be unlocked with either a monthly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. Purchases are handled entirely by the store: by Apple through the App Store on iPhone and iPad, and by Google through Google Play on Android. We never see or receive your payment details — no card number, no billing address, no name. The app is told only whether a valid purchase exists, and stores that single yes-or-no answer on the device.
The stores’ own handling of purchase information is covered by Apple’s Privacy Policy and Google’s Privacy Policy.
Children’s privacy
This app is designed for children, and it is built so that there is nothing to protect: because no personal information is ever collected, none can be exposed, misused, or requested by anyone.
- No personal information is collected from children of any age, so no verifiable parental consent is required under COPPA, the GDPR, or equivalent laws.
- There is no chat, no messaging, no user-generated content, and no way for a child to communicate with anyone through the app.
- There are no links out to the open web anywhere a child can reach.
- Purchases, settings, and erasing progress all sit behind a grown-up check designed to be passed by an adult and not by a young child.
Network access
The app makes no network requests of its own. Every crossword, picture, and word is included in the download or generated on the device. The only network traffic is the store’s own — Apple’s or Google’s — when the App Store or Google Play is asked about a purchase or a restore.
Your rights
Rights to access, correct, export, or delete personal data — under the GDPR, the CCPA, or any similar law — apply to data a company holds about you. We hold none. If you would like the on-device data gone, use Reset progress in the app or delete the app, and it is gone immediately and completely.
Changes to this policy
If the app ever changes in a way that affects this policy, we will update this page and change the date at the top. If a future version were ever to collect anything at all, we would say so here clearly and in advance, rather than quietly widening a definition.
