Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Lamp & Path ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting the privacy of the families who use our app. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have regarding your information.

By using Lamp & Path, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the app.

2. Information We Collect

Account Information: When you register, we collect your name and email address.

Child Profile Information: You may voluntarily provide information about your children, such as name, birth date, interests, learning styles, and grade level. This information is used solely to personalize your experience within the app.

Activity Logs & Content: We store activity descriptions, photos, videos, documents, weekly summaries, and other content you choose to enter into the app.

Subscription & Payment Information: Payment is processed by Stripe. We do not store your full credit card details. We receive and store subscription status information (e.g., active, trialing, canceled) to manage access to the app.

Usage Data: We may collect limited technical information such as device type, browser type, and app interactions to improve the app's performance and user experience.

3. How We Use Your Information

• To provide, operate, and improve the Lamp & Path app
• To personalize your experience and generate AI-powered insights and summaries
• To process your subscription and manage billing through Stripe
• To send you account-related emails (e.g., weekly reminders, subscription notices)
• To respond to your support requests and communications

4. Children's Privacy

Lamp & Path is designed for parents and guardians to document their children's learning. The app is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children. All child profile information is entered by a parent or guardian and is associated with the parent's account.

If you believe a child under 13 has provided us personal information without parental consent, please contact us immediately at lampandpathhelp@gmail.com and we will delete it promptly.

5. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with trusted third parties only as necessary:

• Stripe – for payment processing
• AI providers – to generate summaries and insights (activity descriptions may be sent to AI services; no personally identifiable information beyond what you input is shared)
• Infrastructure & hosting providers – to operate the app securely
• Legal authorities – if required by law or to protect our rights

6. Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored securely using industry-standard practices. We use encrypted connections (HTTPS) and access controls to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Data Retention

We retain your account and associated data for as long as your account is active. You may delete your account at any time from the Settings page, which will permanently delete all associated data. Some information may be retained for a limited period as required for legal or billing purposes.

8. Your Rights & Choices

• Access & correction: You can view and update your account information within the app.
• Deletion: You may delete your account and all associated data from the Settings page.
• Opt-out of emails: You can turn off weekly email reminders in Settings.

Lamp & Path may use cookies or similar local storage technologies to maintain your session and remember your preferences. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking for advertising purposes.

10. Third-Party Links

The app may contain links to external sites (e.g., our Facebook community). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their policies.

11. Changes to This Policy
