Privacy notice

What the app does with data

The KiddyGo mobile app is a directory of places you can use anonymously, or with an account if you'd rather your favourites followed you. This is everything it touches:

Location — only while in use, only with permission

If you grant the location permission, the app reads your position while you are using it so it can order nearby places by distance. It is used for that calculation in the moment: it is not saved, not attached to any profile, and not shared. If you decline the permission the app still works — the list simply isn't sorted by distance. You can change or withdraw the permission at any time in your device settings.

Directory queries

The places, categories and photos you see come from our database, hosted on Supabase. Like any internet request, each query carries technical data — IP address, timestamp and the request itself — which appears in server logs and is used to run the service and detect abuse. Those logs aren't used to build profiles of users.

Favourites — on your phone, or in your account

Without an account, the places you save are stored on your device using the app's local storage (AsyncStorage): they are not sent to us or to anyone else, we hold no copy, and they disappear when you uninstall the app. With an account, they are stored in our database (Supabase) against your account, so a new phone doesn't lose them — and the ones already on your device move across when you sign up. Each of those rows records which public place you saved and when, and nothing else about you.

Accounts — optional

You can use the whole app without signing up. If you do create an account, we ask for an email address and a password and nothing else: no name, no phone number, no profile to fill in. The email is how you sign in and where confirmation and password-reset links go; the password is stored hashed by Supabase Auth, so nobody at KiddyGo can read it. The account exists to keep your favourites — we don't use it to market anything at you — and you can delete it yourself, at any time, from this website.

No tracking

The app carries no analytics tools, advertising networks, attribution SDKs or third-party trackers. Nothing is used for advertising, and nothing is sold or shared with data brokers.

What this website does with data

This site is the public home of the same project, and handles a little more than the app:

Waiting list

If you enter your email in the waiting-list form, we store it in our database (Supabase) for one purpose: to let you know when KiddyGo launches in your area. We ask for nothing else, and you can have it deleted at any time by writing to the address below.

Language cookie

The site stores a cookie (NEXT_LOCALE) to remember the language you picked. It is strictly necessary to serve the site in your language and is never used for tracking or advertising.

Server logs

Our hosting provider records the usual technical data for each visit — IP address, browser, pages requested, timestamp — so the site can be delivered and kept secure.

Partner area

Businesses that list a place sign in to a private dashboard with an email and password. Those credentials and the listing details are processed only to manage the listings.

Legal basis

• Consent — the location permission in the app, and joining the waiting list. Both can be withdrawn at any time.
• Legitimate interest — keeping the service running, secure and free from abuse (server logs).
• Contract — running the accounts app users choose to create, and managing the accounts and listings of partner businesses.

Who else is involved

We don't sell data and we don't share it for advertising. A small number of providers process data on our instructions:

• Supabase — the database, file storage and server functions behind the app and this site.
• Our hosting provider — serving this website.

These providers may process data outside your country. Where that happens, transfers rely on the safeguards allowed by data protection law, such as the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.

How long things are kept

• Location: not stored — used only in the moment.
• Favourites: on your device until you remove them or uninstall the app; in your account until you remove them or delete the account.
• Account: your email address and password for as long as the account exists. Delete the account and they go with it, straight away.
• Waiting-list email: until KiddyGo launches in your area and we've told you, or until you ask us to delete it — whichever comes first.
• Server logs: a short period, for security and diagnostics.

Your rights

You can ask us for a copy of your data, or to correct it, delete it, restrict or object to its use, or move it elsewhere — and you can withdraw any consent you've given.

Write to fr.kiddygo@gmail.com and we'll reply within one month. If you use the app without an account there may be no data we can link to you; if that's the case we'll say so.

You don't have to write to us to close an account. You can delete it yourself — along with the favourites saved in it — from this website:

Delete your account

If you think we've handled your data badly, you can also complain to the data protection authority in your country.

Children

KiddyGo is about places for children, but it is built for the adults who take them there — parents, carers and families. The app is not directed at children, the accounts it offers are for those adults, and we collect no information about children.

Changes to this notice

If what KiddyGo does with data changes, we'll update this page and the date at the top. Anything significant will be flagged in the app or on the site.
