Privacy Policy (Hello! Pretend Phone)

Last updated: June 11, 2026

"Hello! Pretend Phone" (the "App") is a pretend-phone app for children aged 0–3 and their families that works entirely on the device. The App is designed with the utmost respect for your privacy. The App does not collect or transmit any personal information or usage data whatsoever.

This policy explains how the App does — and does not — handle information.

1. Core principle: everything stays on the device

The App uses no accounts and no cloud. All data — recorded audio, the names and photos you set, and your settings — is stored only on your device and is never transmitted off the device. No third party, including the developer, can access this data.

2. Information stored on the device

The App stores the following only on the device (in the app's private storage). None of it is transmitted externally.

Recorded audio: recordings of family voices (greeting, reply, goodbye, and so on).
Contact details: the names you register, the photos you choose, and settings.
In-app settings and purchase status: flags such as whether the one-time unlock is active.

3. Information we do not collect

The App does not collect any of the following:

Personally identifying information such as name, email address, or phone number
Location data
Device identifiers or advertising IDs
Usage or analytics data (including access analytics and crash analytics)

4. Sharing and third-party services

We never provide, share, or sell any information to third parties.
The App does not display ads.
The App does not include any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs.

5. Children's privacy

The App is intended primarily for young children. As described above, the App does not collect any personal information or usage data from any user, including children. There are no ads, no external tracking, and no account registration. Actions such as recording, deleting, and purchasing are kept behind a grown-ups' area (a parental gate) so that a child cannot trigger them by accident.

6. How device permissions are used

The App uses the following device permissions to provide its features. Anything captured stays on the device.

Microphone: used to record family voices. Recordings are stored only on the device.
Photo library: used to set a photo for a contact in the phone book. Selected images are stored only on the device.

7. Deleting data

You can delete individual recordings or contacts from within the App.
Uninstalling the App removes all data stored on the device.
Because the data exists only on the device, it cannot be recovered once deleted.

8. Purchases (one-time unlock)

The App's one-time purchase is processed through Apple's App Store. Payment is handled by Apple, and the developer never receives payment details such as credit card numbers. Purchase management and refunds follow Apple's policies.

9. Changes to this policy

We may revise this policy as needed. If there is a significant change, we will update the "Last updated" date on this page to let you know.
