Privacy Policy
How ReadyTales handles parent accounts, personalized story content, generated media, providers, retention, deletion, and privacy requests.
Effective May 18, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how ReadyTales collects, uses, stores, and shares information when parents or guardians use the app to create stories, characters, images, and narration.
Information we collect
Account information, such as identifiers and sign-in details provided through our authentication provider.
Parent-created content, such as character names, animal selections, traits, story concepts, settings, prompts, generated story text, generated images, and narration files.
Purchase and credit information, such as credit balances, credit activity, and payment confirmation details from app stores or payment processors. We do not store full payment card numbers.
Technical information, such as device, browser, log, diagnostic, and security information needed to operate and protect the service.
Children and parental control
ReadyTales is designed for use by parents and guardians, not for unsupervised use by children.
Because stories may be personalized for a child, parents should avoid entering unnecessary sensitive information about a child.
If we learn that we collected personal information directly from a child without appropriate parental consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
How we use information
To create, save, display, and manage characters, stories, generated images, and narration.
To send prompts and related inputs to AI providers so they can generate story text, image prompts, images, and related outputs.
To manage credits, purchases, account access, customer support, safety, fraud prevention, troubleshooting, analytics, and service improvement.
AI providers and generated content
ReadyTales uses AI providers, including OpenAI, to generate or assist with stories, prompts, and images. Inputs sent to AI providers may include the character and story details you provide.
Generated images and stories may be stored so they remain available in your library. ReadyTales does not claim ownership of generated images.
AI output may not be unique, and similar outputs may be generated for other users.
How we share information
We share information with service providers that help us operate ReadyTales, such as authentication, cloud database, file storage, AI generation, payment, analytics, and hosting providers.
We may share information if required by law, to protect rights and safety, to prevent fraud or abuse, or as part of a business transfer such as a merger, acquisition, or asset sale.
We do not sell children's personal information.
Retention and deletion
We keep account data, saved characters, saved stories, images, narration, and credit records for as long as needed to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.
You may request deletion of account content through the support or contact channel listed in the app store listing or on ReadyTales.app. Some records may be retained where required for legal, security, payment, or accounting reasons.
Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
Your choices
You can choose what character and story details to provide, delete stories in the app where supported, and contact us about account or content deletion requests.
You can avoid entering real names or sensitive details and use fictional character details instead.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will update the effective date and provide notice where required by law.
