DF: Bedtime Stories for Kids (“we”, “our”, or “us”) — Effective date: August 22, 2025
This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and the rights you have in relation to that information. If you are a parent or guardian of a child who uses our app, please read the Children's Privacy section carefully.
This Privacy Policy applies to the DF: Bedtime Stories for Kids mobile application and any associated websites, services, features, and content (collectively, the “Service”). The data controller for the Service is DF: Bedtime Stories for Kids. If you need to contact our privacy team, please email [email protected] (Attn: Privacy Officer).
This policy does not create any contractual rights beyond those set out in our Terms of Use. This policy is intended to be clear and legally compliant, but it is not legal advice — if you need legal advice please consult a qualified attorney.
We collect information you provide to us and information collected automatically when you use the Service. Examples include:
Sensitive data: We do not intentionally request or retain personal data that is legally considered “sensitive” (e.g., race, religion, health) except where you voluntarily provide such information in a message or uploaded content. If you or a child submits sensitive data, you understand and consent to our processing of that content for the limited purposes described in this policy.
We process personal data for the following purposes and rely on the legal bases described below (for EU users, legal bases are stated in accordance with the GDPR):
| Purpose | Data used | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Provide and operate the Service (story creation, storage, playback) | Account data, uploaded photos & files, usage data | Performance of contract; your consent for certain features |
| Process uploaded media (image/audio processing, transforms, enhancements) | Uploaded photos, audio and associated metadata | Performance of contract; separate consent when required |
| Customer support and troubleshooting | Support messages, logs, device info | Performance of contract; legitimate interests (maintaining service) |
| Analytics, product improvement and research | Usage, device, crash reports | Legitimate interests (service improvement); consent where required |
| Legal compliance and fraud prevention | Account and transaction data, logs | Legal obligation; legitimate interests |
Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us or using the app’s settings (withdrawal does not affect processing already completed lawfully prior to the withdrawal).
We retain personal data only as long as is necessary to provide the Service, to comply with legal obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements.
If you need a different retention schedule (for legal reasons), please contact us at [email protected].
We implement reasonable organizational, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, and alteration. These safeguards include access controls, encryption in transit and at rest where supported by our providers, and regular security assessments.
No system is perfectly secure; if we become aware of a security incident that poses a risk to your rights or freedoms, we will follow applicable legal requirements (including notification to affected users and regulators when required by law).
The Service is designed for children and families. We take special care with data about children.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights regarding your personal information. Examples include:
To exercise your rights, please contact us at [email protected] or use in-app controls where available. We will take steps to verify your identity before responding. We aim to respond to verifiable requests without undue delay and in accordance with applicable law.
If you are a California resident, you have specific rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act, including the right to request certain information about our data collection and sharing practices, the right to request deletion, and the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information.
Do we sell personal information? We do not knowingly sell personal information for monetary consideration. If we ever do engage in activities that constitute a “sale” or “sharing” under applicable California law we will comply with notice and opt-out requirements and provide a “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” mechanism.
To submit a request under California law, contact us at [email protected] with “California Privacy Request” in the subject line. We will verify your request in accordance with law.
The Service may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not controlled by us. This policy does not apply to third-party services. We encourage you to review the privacy notices of third parties before providing your data to them.
Your personal information may be processed and stored in countries other than the country where you live. We take steps to ensure adequate protection for transfers (for example contractual protections, Standard Contractual Clauses, or reliance on adequacy decisions where available).
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. When we make material changes, we will post a notice in the app and update the Effective Date above. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
If you have questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or our data practices, please contact:

If you are an EU resident, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. If you are in the United States and believe your privacy rights have been violated, you may have other remedies depending on local law.
This Privacy Policy is intended to describe our practices in clear terms and to be legally compliant with many common privacy laws. It does not create any contractual rights beyond those set out in our Terms of Use. This policy is not legal advice; consult a qualified attorney for legal counsel tailored to your situation.
