Children's privacy & data (COPPA)
Dyscovery is built for children, so we follow the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) by design. This page is a working draft of our notice — it is not yet legal advice and must be reviewed by counsel before launch.
The short version
A parent or guardian holds the account and gives verifiable consent before we collect anything from a child. We collect the minimum needed to run the games, never sell data, never use it for behavioral advertising, and let parents review or delete it at any time.
What we collect
From the parent: email and authentication details. From the child profile: a display name (not a legal name), a coarse age band (not a birth date), accessibility preferences, screening responses, and gameplay results.
Verifiable parental consent
We obtain consent before any collection. We ask for separateconsent for anything that is not integral to the service — including sending de-identified data to our AI provider for game generation and report narration. We never use children's data to train third-party AI models, and we never share it for targeted advertising.
Your rights as a parent
Review your child's data, revoke consent, and request export or deletion at any time. Deletion is honored promptly and logged.
Retention & security
We keep data only as long as needed to provide the service, following a written retention schedule, and protect it with encryption in transit and at rest.
