This policy covers all applications published by Kendal Slack, across three product families:
Kendal Slack itself does not collect, store, or transmit any personally identifiable information (PII) from any of these apps. Advertising data described below is collected by Google AdMob, never by us.
None. We do not run a backend, we do not have user accounts, and we do not receive any data about you from the apps directly. The primary-school and Year 12 apps never collect personal information, location data, device identifiers, usage analytics, crash reports, photos, microphone or camera data, contacts, or payment information beyond what Apple handles.
All progress — stars and pets, lesson progress, questions answered, mock-exam results, flashcard streaks, your exam date, and any first name you enter for the in-app greeting — is stored locally on your device. It never leaves the device (except as described in §4), is never transmitted to any Kendal Slack server (we don't operate one), and can be deleted at any time by deleting the app.
The Year 12 apps work fully without Amy. When you ask her to mark a response or explain a concept:
In short: Amy may see the words of your answer, but she sees nothing about you.
The Year 12 apps unlock Amy through two optional auto-renewing subscriptions — Amy Live (A$4.99/mo) and Crunch Time (A$9.99/mo). All payment is handled by Apple via In-App Purchase; we never see your card details, billing address, or Apple ID. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.
The primary-school apps comply with Apple's Kids-category guidelines, COPPA (US), the Australian Privacy Act 1988, and GDPR where applicable. The Year 12 apps are intended for senior secondary students (typically 16+); no parental consent is required because no personal information is gathered from any user.
The primary-school apps integrate no third-party services at all and run entirely offline. The Year 12 apps integrate exactly one third party — Anthropic's Claude API for Amy — and need internet only for her; everything else works offline. None of our apps include analytics tools, social-login SDKs, crash reporting, or cloud syncing.
The free word games store streaks, scores, settings and progress on your device only. They embed Google AdMobto show ads to non-subscribing users. If you allow tracking at the iOS App Tracking Transparency prompt, AdMob may collect your device's advertising identifier (IDFA), coarse location derived from IP, ad interactions, crash diagnostics, and in-app purchase activity. If you ask the app not to track, ads still show but are non-personalised. Google's use of this data is governed by policies.google.com/privacy.
Apps are distributed through the App Store; Apple may collect information as part of download and purchase per Apple's privacy policy. Since we collect no personal information, there is nothing for us to access, correct, export or delete — your data simply does not exist on any Kendal Slack server. If this policy changes, the effective date above is updated and users are prominently notified in-app first.
