ColorFable is built so that children can color without accounts, ads or tracking. This policy sets out exactly what the app handles and who else is involved.
Overview
This Privacy Policy applies to ColorFable: Kids Coloring (“ColorFable”), a coloring and drawing app for Android provided by Acuity Tech Apps (“we”, “us”, “our”). It explains what information the app handles, where it goes, and how parents and guardians can make requests.
Our general Privacy Policy covers acuitytechapps.com. Where the two differ about ColorFable, this policy applies.
1.Children and Parents
ColorFable is designed for children, with parents or guardians managing settings, purchases and privacy requests.
- Children do not need an account, and ColorFable does not ask a child for an email address, phone number, date of birth or location.
- ColorFable has no chat, social features or public sharing.
- We do not sell personal information and do not use children’s information for advertising.
If we learn that information has been collected from a child beyond what applicable law permits, we will delete it, or obtain any legally required parental consent before any further use.
2.Information Stored on Your Device
Most of what ColorFable keeps never leaves the device. It is held in the app’s private storage and includes:
- drawings in progress and saved artwork;
- story progress, completed sheets, coin balance, rewards, streaks and daily challenges;
- parent settings, including the parent PIN, screen-time limit, and sound, music, haptic and reduced-motion preferences; and
- an optional first name, if a parent enters one in Settings. It is only used to greet the child on the home screen and is never sent off the device.
We do not upload drawings or this information to our own servers, and ColorFable does not export artwork to shared device folders or share it with other apps.
Backups and new devices
ColorFable turns off Android’s cloud backup for its app data. On newer versions of Android, a direct device-to-device transfer while setting up a new phone or tablet may still copy app data, depending on the device.
Clearing ColorFable’s storage or uninstalling the app permanently deletes this information, including saved artwork, coins and progress. It does not cancel a subscription.
3.Purchases and Subscriptions
Payments for ColorFable Premium are processed by Google Play. We never receive your payment card details.
We use RevenueCat to validate purchases, keep Premium access working, restore purchases, and report on subscription performance. For this, RevenueCat receives purchase records from Google Play, which can include:
- product and plan identifiers;
- purchase tokens and order identifiers;
- purchase, renewal and expiry dates, and subscription status; and
- a random, anonymous customer identifier that RevenueCat generates for the app.
ColorFable does not send RevenueCat a name, email address or account. The app is configured so that RevenueCat does not collect device identifiers, and the Android advertising ID permission is removed from the app. RevenueCat retains purchase history; it is not only processed temporarily.
4.Story Downloads
Story artwork is delivered through Google Play. When a story downloads, Google receives the connection information needed to deliver it, such as an IP address, and handles it under its own privacy policy. ColorFable needs an internet connection only for story downloads and purchase-related services.
5.What ColorFable Does Not Do
- ColorFable shows no ads and contains no advertising SDKs.
- It contains no third-party analytics or crash-reporting SDKs. The only subscription reporting is what RevenueCat provides from purchase records.
- It does not access the device’s location or contacts.
- It does not track children across other apps or websites.
6.Support Requests
If a parent emails us, we receive the email address, the message and any attachments. We use them only to answer the request, resolve problems or handle privacy requests.
Please do not send children’s personal details, or artwork that contains personal information, unless it is needed to resolve your request.
7.Who Receives Information
- Google Play — payments, subscription management and story downloads. Google Privacy Policy
- RevenueCat — purchase validation, restoration and subscription reporting, on our behalf. RevenueCat Privacy Policy
- Spacemail — our email provider, which processes support correspondence.
We may also disclose information where the law requires it, to protect rights, safety and security, or as part of a lawful business transfer with appropriate safeguards. We never make children’s drawings public.
8.Retention and Deletion
Information on the device stays there until it is removed through the app or by clearing its storage or uninstalling it.
- Support emails are deleted once the request is resolved and no longer needed, and in any case no later than 24 months after the last message.
- Purchase records are kept only while needed to provide and restore Premium access, handle refunds and disputes, prevent fraud and meet legal obligations. They are then deleted or anonymised.
Parents can ask us to access or delete information we control by emailing hello@acuitytechapps.com. Because ColorFable has no accounts, we may ask for the Google Play order number from the purchase receipt (it begins with “GPA.”) to find the right record, and for enough information to confirm the request comes from the parent.
Deleting information does not cancel a Google Play subscription, and Google and RevenueCat may keep records they are required to hold.
9.Security
Purchase and download services use encrypted connections, and access to our support mailbox is restricted. We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information, but no method of storage or transmission is completely secure.
10.International Processing
Our service providers, including Google and RevenueCat, may process information in the United States and other countries outside your own. Where information is transferred internationally, we rely on providers and safeguards appropriate to the circumstances and applicable law.
11.Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal information, to restrict or object to processing, and to complain to your local data protection authority. Parents and guardians may exercise these rights on behalf of their children.
Where processing relies on consent, you can withdraw it at any time; this does not affect processing that already took place. To make a request, email hello@acuitytechapps.com.
12.Changes to This Policy
We will update this page when ColorFable’s practices change, and revise the “Last updated” date. Where the law requires it, we will give additional notice or ask for consent before a change takes effect.
