Child Information Protection

Effective: 2026-07-16

This page is a plain-language summary of how Pumlo protects children. It is not a substitute for the full Privacy Policy or Terms of Service, but it captures the commitments we make to families using the App. Where this page and the Privacy Policy say the same thing, both are binding.

No Account, No Identity

There is no sign-up. The App never asks for, receives, or stores your child's name, phone number, email, mailing address, exact birthday, exact age, gender, photographs, voice, contacts, or precise location. The age band shown during onboarding (2–3, 4–5, or 6–9) is the only thing about your child the App knows, and it stays on this device.

No Ads, No Tracking

The App contains no advertising of any kind, no behavioural-tracking SDKs, no analytics services that build profiles, and no cross-app trackers. Your child cannot be served personalised ads, retargeted, or fingerprinted by the App.

No Permissions That Could Surveil

The App does not request access to the camera, microphone, photo library, contacts, calendar, location, Bluetooth, or motion sensors. It cannot listen, watch, or follow your child around the device.

No Outside Communication

There is no chat, no messaging, no friend system, no sharing, no leaderboards, and no user-generated content. Your child cannot interact with strangers through the App.

Subscriptions Are Adult-Only

All purchase, restore, and data-deletion actions live behind a Parent Area that requires reading a spelled-out number to enter — a task designed for adults. Three wrong answers triggers a 30-second cooldown. This makes accidental in-app purchases by children effectively impossible. Subscriptions themselves are processed by Apple App Store; the App never sees payment information.

You Control the Data

Everything the App stores lives only on this device. From the Parent Area you can erase all of it in two taps with Delete Local Data. Doing so does NOT cancel an Apple subscription — that is managed in the system Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.

Daily Time Limit

In Settings you can set a daily play-time limit (there is none by default). Once a child reaches that limit, the App locks itself for the rest of the day and shows a "see you tomorrow" screen. This is enforced by the App locally; no telemetry is sent.

Subscription Verification (Apple Only)

To verify subscription state and support "Restore Purchase", the App uses Apple's standard on-device StoreKit framework, which talks directly to Apple. No third-party subscription service is involved. Nothing about your child — no profile, no age, no behavioural events — is sent to anyone.

Compliance Posture

The App is designed to comply with the spirit of laws like the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), the EU General Data Protection Regulation including its child-specific provisions (GDPR-K), and the U.K. Age Appropriate Design Code, by minimising data collection to the point of effectively eliminating it. Where applicable law requires verifiable parental consent for collecting child data, this App side-steps the requirement by not collecting child data in the first place.

Reporting a Concern

If something about the App feels off — a behaviour you didn't expect, a setting that seems wrong, a question about how your data is handled — please email butyoux@163.com. We respond within 7 days.
