Children's privacy (COPPA)

DreamWeaver is intended to be used by parents and legal guardians for the benefit of their children. We do not knowingly collect information from or market to children under 13. By creating a Child Profile, you represent that you are the parent or legal guardian with authority to provide this information. Parents and guardians have the right to: • Review information provided about their child • Request deletion of their account and all associated data • Refuse further collection or use of their child's information • Exercise these rights through the Settings screen or by contacting us

Third-Party Service Providers: We share information with service providers that perform services for us: • Backend Hosting: Your data is stored on Google Firebase servers • Analytics: Firebase Analytics (mobile app) and Google Analytics (website) process usage data to provide insights and analytics services. These services may collect information about your visits and interactions. • AI Model Providers: To generate stories and illustrations, we send your prompts (including child information and custom text) to AI text generation services (such as OpenAI GPT models) and AI image generation services. These providers have their own privacy policies, and we only send the minimum information required for generation.
