Privacy Policy

We're here to help you pick great books — without collecting your personal info.

Welcome to ParentsPick, your new go-to for finding the right books for your kids! We built this app to keep things simple and private — no personal data, no fuss. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle things while you scan and explore.

1. What we don't collect

We don't gather or keep any personal info — here's the scoop:

  • No Personal Data: No names, emails, or accounts needed. Everything stays on your device.
  • No Device IDs: We don't track things like UDID or other identifiers that point to you.
  • Just Book Scans: When you scan a barcode, that's all we work with — nothing more.

2. The camera's job

The camera's only trick is scanning barcodes:

  • Barcode Only: It captures ISBNs when you scan a book — no photos, no audio, no extras.
  • No Saving: We don't store what the camera sees — it's just a quick read to get book details.

3. Tools we use

We lean on a couple helpers to keep the app humming:

  • Sentry & Mixpanel: These track basic, anonymous stuff — like if a scan worked — to fix bugs and improve things.
  • No Personal Tie: They don't know who you are or what device you're on — just raw, nameless stats.

4. Where your data stays

Here's the deal on storage:

  • Your Device Only: Scans and preferences don't leave your phone — we don't have servers waiting to grab them.
  • Nothing Stored: Close the app, and we're not holding anything. It's all local to you.

5. Sharing? Not really

We don't share personal data — because we don't have it:

  • No Third Parties: No one gets your info since we don't collect it to begin with.
  • Legal Stuff: If the law knocks, we'd comply — but there's nothing personal to hand over.

6. Your choices

No accounts, no data collected — means you're already in control:

  • Scan what you want, when you want
  • Preferences stay on your device
  • Delete the app, and it's all gone

7. Policy updates

If ParentsPick changes, we'll update this policy and post it here. Check back anytime to see the current version.
