Privacy Policy

KidClear

KidClear's library works offline. Search history is short, non-sensitive and local; custom entries can be encrypted. A family-offline build removes the Internet permission completely.

Development status: KidClear is still in development and is not yet available on Google Play. This page describes, from the current source code, how the app is being designed to behave. It will be finalised as the formal privacy policy before any release, and updated if behaviour changes.

Information the App Accesses

  • Microphone audio during voice search (on-device transcription)

Information Stored on Your Device

  • Favourites, short non-sensitive search history and your own added entries

Information Transmitted Off the Device

Nothing. KidClear has no mechanism for uploading your data.

Sharing and Third-Party Services

No data is shared with third parties. The app contains no advertising or tracking SDKs.

Permissions

Every permission KidClear requests, and the reason it exists:

Microphone

Voice search: speak a word instead of typing it. Transcription happens on the device.

Internet

Declared in the standard build. A dedicated family-offline version removes this permission entirely, and the explanation library works offline in every version.

Further Detail

  • The explanation library is bundled and works entirely offline.
  • Search history is short, stored locally and excludes sensitive searches.
  • Custom entries you add can be stored encrypted on the device.
  • Safety routing shows UK support resources for immediate-risk searches and protects those screens from screenshots.
  • The familyOffline app version removes the Internet permission at the manifest level.

Data Retention

History and favourites stay on the device until you clear them in Settings.

Data Deletion

Clear history and saved items in the app's Settings, or clear the app's storage in Android settings.

Children and Age Considerations

KidClear is designed to be family-friendly. It collects no personal information from anyone, including children, and contains no advertising.

External Links

Where the app links to external websites or services, those destinations are clearly indicated and governed by their own privacy policies.

Changes to This Policy

If the app's behaviour changes, this page changes with it and the date at the top is updated. Material changes for a released app will also be reflected in its Google Play listing.

Privacy Enquiries

Questions about this policy can be raised via the contact page or the KidClear support page. The website privacy page covers this website itself — the app and the site are separate software with separate behaviour.
