Privacy Policy

Family Agreements helps families organize responsibilities and rewards in a transparent and positive way. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected, how it is used, and how it is protected.

Last updated:

In short

  • One email address per adult, and none at all for a child — no email, no phone number, no contacts.
  • The camera is used only to scan a QR invitation code. Nothing is recorded, stored or uploaded.
  • Usage statistics and crash reports go to Google Firebase. They carry no names, no email addresses and no text from tasks or rewards. The collection is on by default; it can be switched off in the application settings.
  • No advertising networks, no advertising trackers, no selling of personal data. The device advertising identifier is not collected.
  • Write to support@family-agreements.app to have the account and its family data deleted.

This summary is here for readability. The sections below are the binding text.

Family Agreements is designed to collect the minimum amount of information necessary to operate the service.

Parent account information:

  • Email address
  • Authentication tokens required to maintain a session

The email address is used only for authentication and account management.

Child profiles:

  • Display name chosen by the parent or child
  • Internal identifier (UUID)
  • Membership within a family group

Child accounts do not require an email address.

Beyond that, the application collects information about how it is used, along with crash diagnostics: without it there is no way to see where the application breaks and which step people get stuck on. It is collected by Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics, Google services. They hold no names and none of the text you type in, but they cannot be called fully anonymous either — the complete list is below.

What this includes:

  • Actions: a screen was opened, a role was chosen, a sign-in went through, a family was created, an invitation QR code was scanned, a task was created, completion was approved, a subscription was purchased
  • Attributes: the role (adult or child), the plan (free or Family Pro), whether a family exists, which step of the initial setup you are on, and how you signed in (an emailed code or Google)
  • Error codes, server response statuses and the addresses of failed requests, with the identifiers stripped out
  • Crash reports: the place in the code, the application version, the device model, the Android version and a request code that lets a crash be matched with a line in the server log
  • The device language, the approximate region Google derives from the IP address, and a random installation identifier — it changes when the application is reinstalled

What it does not include:

  • Names, email addresses or any contact details
  • Task and reward titles, or any other text you type in
  • Account, family or profile identifiers
  • The device advertising identifier or the Android ID

The collection is on by default. It is switched off in the application settings, and the switch applies only to the device where it was switched off: a child's phone is switched off separately.

One last event goes out before the collection stops — the fact that it was switched off. After that the application sends neither statistics nor crash reports, and whatever has not yet left the device is deleted. Data Google has already received stays with Google until its retention period runs out.

The application may store information related to family activity, including:

  • Household tasks
  • Task completion status
  • Reward catalog entries
  • Reward requests
  • Points balances
  • Transaction history (ledger)

This information exists only to support core app functionality.

Family Agreements may request access to the device camera.

The camera is used only for scanning QR invitation codes when a child joins a family or re-authenticates a device.

The application does not:

  • Record video
  • Store images
  • Upload camera content to servers

Camera access occurs only when the user explicitly chooses to scan a QR code.

Information collected by the application is used only to:

  • Authenticate users
  • Manage family membership
  • Track task completion
  • Maintain point balances
  • Process reward requests
  • Display activity history
  • Find failures and improve the application

The application does not sell personal data.

Usage statistics are read in aggregate — to improve the application, not to watch a particular person or family.

Application data may be stored on secure backend servers operated by the developer.

Stored data may include:

  • Account identifiers
  • Family data
  • Tasks and rewards
  • Ledger history

Reasonable security measures are used to protect stored information.

Family Agreements does not sell personal data and does not share it with third parties, apart from the service providers the service cannot run without:

  • Authentication infrastructure
  • Secure hosting providers
  • Google Firebase — usage statistics (Firebase Analytics) and crash reports (Firebase Crashlytics)

Usage statistics and crash reports are processed by Google as a service provider and under its own privacy policy. They are stored on Google servers, including outside the country you live in.

The application does not use advertising networks and does not track users for advertising purposes.

The device advertising identifier is not collected: the permissions the Google library adds by default have been removed from the application, and the sending of advertising and personalization signals is switched off.

Family Agreements is designed to be used within families under the supervision of parents or guardians.

Child profiles contain only:

  • A display name
  • Activity within the family system

The application does not collect external contact information for children. Parents control creation and management of child accounts.

A child profile yields the same data as an adult one: actions and crash diagnostics. The profile name and the titles of tasks and rewards do not go into it.

Children are shown no advertising, the device advertising identifier is not collected and no advertising profiles are built.

The collection switch applies to one device. To stop the collection from a child's phone, switch it off on that phone.

Data is stored only as long as the family account exists.

If an account is deleted, associated family data may also be removed from the system.

Usage statistics and crash reports live separately from the family account: they are kept by Google until the retention period set for the Firebase project runs out.

Users may request deletion of their account and associated data by contacting the developer at support@family-agreements.app.

After verification, account data will be removed from the system.

Usage statistics and crash reports cannot be deleted on request: they carry no name, no email address and no account identifier, so there is no way to match them to you individually. They disappear on their own once the retention period runs out; to stop new ones from being sent, switch the collection off in the application settings.

The developer takes reasonable measures to protect user information, including:

  • Secure authentication
  • Encrypted network communication
  • Server-side authorization controls

However, no system can guarantee absolute security.

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time.

If significant changes occur, the updated policy will be published at the same URL: family-agreements.app/privacy-policy.
