Introduction
At EduTales, your privacy and data security are our top priorities. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our app. As our target audience includes children under the age of 13, we adhere to strict regulations, including the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and ensure compliance with the guidelines laid out by Google Play's Privacy and Security policy.

Data Security
We use industry-standard security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We encourage parents to be involved in their children’s online activities to ensure a safe and positive experience.
