Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 02/05/2025
Welcome to Kiddos Books, a sub-product of Kiddos AI, developed and powered by Kiddos LLC.
We (“we” or “Kiddos LLC”) are committed to protecting your privacy in compliance with this policy and all applicable state and federal laws. We have a few fundamental principles to ensure transparency and to protect your data:
We have adopted this policy to provide full transparency regarding any information collected by the Mobile Application and the purposes for which it is collected.
The use of "collect" complies with legal definitions and does not necessarily imply that we transmit or extract information about your usage to our servers.
Our goal is to inform you about our practices so you can make an informed decision about using Kiddos Books.
We do not and will not sell any information gathered by the Mobile Application to any third party.
To protect minors, Kiddos Books uses an age gate based on a sequential math problem rather than directly requesting the user’s age.
Our Mobile Application offers filters such as age group, language preference, and reading categories (like “Teacher Picks” or “Parent Favorites”) to enhance browsing. These filters do not collect personal data about your identity or behavior. No information about your usage, preferences, selected filters, or reading history is ever sent to our servers. We do not collect, store, or access such information.
This Privacy Policy describes:
The types of information we may collect when you purchase, download, install, register with, access, or use the Kiddos Books Mobile Application.
Our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing that information.
Our practices concerning children’s personal information under the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
This policy applies only to information we collect within the Kiddos Books Mobile Application or through communications directly related to it (such as emails you send us).
It does not apply to:
Information collected on other apps or websites operated by Kiddos LLC.
Information collected by any third party.
Please read this policy carefully. If you do not agree with it, do not download, register with, or use the Kiddos Books Mobile Application.
By using Kiddos Books, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
For the purposes of this policy, even if information is collected solely on the device and never transmitted elsewhere, it is deemed "collected" under applicable law.
1. Information We Collect and How We Collect It

By using Kiddos Books, you acknowledge that:
Any transmission of information is at your own risk.
Kiddos LLC is not responsible for circumvention of security features by third parties.
6. Accessing and Correcting Your Information

7. Your State Privacy Rights
Depending on where you reside, you may have the right to:

8. Children’s Personal Information (COPPA Compliance)
We do not knowingly collect, use, or disclose personal information from children under 13 without parental consent.
No identifiable information is collected through the standard use of Kiddos Books.
We encourage parents to monitor their child's use of digital apps and contact us immediately if they believe personal data has been inadvertently collected.
9. Parental Consent and Age Verification
Kiddos Books uses a sequential math problem (age gate) to help ensure compliance with COPPA.
By agreeing to our Terms of Use, parents confirm they consent to their child’s use of the app and associated policies.
If you have any concerns, you may contact us at contact@kiddos.ai.
