With your explicit consent — if you choose to share or export records (e.g., to a pediatrician or family member)

6. Children’s Privacy

KiddoApp is intended for use by parents or guardians to track their children’s vaccination information. The App is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect information directly from children under 13 (or the applicable age of consent in your jurisdiction).

All data related to a child (name, birthdate, vaccine records) is entered and controlled by the parent/guardian. We comply with applicable children’s privacy laws, including the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) where applicable, and similar regulations in other regions.

10. Third-Party Services

The App may use third-party services (e.g., analytics providers, cloud storage, crash reporting) that collect information used to identify you. These third parties have their own privacy policies governing their use of such information. We encourage you to review their policies. We do not permit these providers to sell or use your data for their own marketing purposes.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons.

Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

14. Consent

By using KiddoApp, you consent to this Privacy Policy and agree to its terms.

This is a general-purpose privacy policy template intended for informational use in preparing your Google Play Store and Apple App Store listings. It is not a substitute for legal advice. Laws such as GDPR (EU), CCPA (California), COPPA (US), and similar regulations in other jurisdictions have specific requirements — consider having this reviewed by a legal professional before publishing, especially since your App handles children’s health-related data.

The vaccination schedules and medical event timelines in KiddoApp are based on the official guidelines published by leading national and international public health and pediatric medical authorities.
