1. Who We Are

Bored Bear is a mobile gaming subscription service for children, developed by Bored Bear LTD, Company Number 16439369, registered in Landgate Chambers, 24 Landgate, Rye, TN31 7LJ, England, United Kingdom. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring a safe experience for children and their families. We comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

2. What Information We Collect

We limit the collection of personal data to the minimum necessary for app functionality:

●      No Personally Identifiable Information (PII): We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or other personal details from children.

●      Device IP Address (Persistent Identifier): We collect and temporarily store the device’s IP address — which is considered personal data under GDPR and a persistent identifier under COPPA — only to save and restore game progress and ensure the app works correctly. This information is protected and never used for tracking, profiling, or advertising.

●      Parent-Initiated Contact: In the parent section of the app, adults may choose to contact us via email. We only use this information to respond to inquiries.

3. How We Use This Information

We use the IP address to:

●      Save and restore game progress.

●      Ensure the app functions properly

We may share minimal data with trusted service providers who help us operate the app (e.g., hosting, subscription management, payment processing). These providers are bound by strict data protection agreements and cannot use the information for their own purposes

We use parent-provided email addresses solely to respond to questions, feedback, or support requests.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

●      For Subscribers: We process data necessary to fulfill the subscription service. We do not collect or store payment card details; all payments are processed securely by the app store provider.

●      For Free Users: We collect only the minimal technical data necessary to operate the app (such as saving game progress) based on our legitimate interest in providing a functional and safe service.

●      For Parent-Initiated Contact: We process data based on consent given when contacting us.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share personal data with third parties. We may disclose information only if required by law.

6. Data Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as it is needed for the purposes described in this policy:

●      IP addresses are stored only as long as necessary to maintain gameplay progress, after which they are deleted or anonymised.

●      Emails from parents are kept only until we have responded and resolved the matter.

When data is no longer needed, we securely delete it or make it anonymous so it can no longer be linked to a person.

Bored Bear is designed for children and complies with COPPA, GDPR, and other applicable child privacy laws.

●      We do not collect personal information from children beyond what is necessary for the app to function.
