For parents
Safety
This page explains what My World Quest does with data, what child interaction is available, and how we use AI. It uses plain language. The last update was June 2026.
What the app does
- The app is free. It has no adverts and no in-app purchases.
- Children play without signing up. Progress is saved to the device.
- There is no chat, no comments, and no public leaderboards for children.
- Most of the app works offline once it has loaded once.
- Every screen has a read-aloud button for children who cannot read yet.
- High-contrast and large-text options are in the menu.
What the app does not do
- We do not show adverts of any kind.
- We do not sell, share, or trade user data.
- We do not collect a child’s name, email, phone number, or location.
- We do not use manipulative timers, streaks that punish, or loot boxes.
- We do not allow children to talk to strangers.
Data we collect
Everything below is only used for the reason stated.
| What | Why | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Anonymous device ID | To count how many children use the app each day. We cannot link this ID to a person. | Sent to our server. Deleted after 12 months. |
| Stars, streaks, and badges | To save the child’s progress between visits. | Stored in the browser on this device only. Never uploaded. |
| Child’s first name (optional) | To greet the child by name if the parent chose to enter it. | Stored in the browser on this device only. Never uploaded. |
| Contact form messages | So we can reply to parents who write to us. | Sent to our support inbox by email. Kept until the query is resolved. |
Safeguarding & child interaction
Keeping children safe is our first priority. This is exactly what is and is not available today.
Available now
- Self-paced lessons, quests, games and the globe — all free.
- Read-aloud narration and printable worksheets.
- Progress and rewards saved on the child’s own device.
Not available
- Live one-to-one teaching or tutoring is not available.
- There is no way for a child to message, call, or meet an adult through the app.
- There is no open chat, forum, or public profile for children.
We are developing live teaching carefully. We will only introduce it with proper vetting, supervision, consent and recordkeeping in place. Until then it stays off.
AI & child-safety transparency
We are honest about how AI is and is not used. We do not claim any external audit or certification.
| Expectation | Our approach | Status |
|---|---|---|
| No AI chatbot talks directly to children | There is no open-ended AI chat for children. Children interact with pre-prepared lessons and activities only. | Implemented |
| AI-assisted content is reviewed before children see it | Where AI helps draft or organise learning content, it is checked against our curriculum data and quality checks before publishing. | Partially implemented |
| No child personal data is used to train models | We do not collect children’s personal information, so none is used for training or profiling. | Implemented |
| Independent external assessment of AI safety | We have not completed an independent third-party assessment. We do not claim any external audit or certification. | Planned |
