For parents, siblings, and helpers

Safety and privacy

What we ask for (almost nothing), and what we teach about staying safe.

What we never do

There are no ads, no tracking for sale, no in-app purchases, and no messages from strangers. The chat is fully scripted, so no live AI ever talks to your learner on our site. We never ask for a legal name, address, phone number, school, workplace, payment details, or exact location. The setup asks what to CALL your learner: any nickname works, it is optional, and skipping keeps the friendly default, Sam.

Sign-in is optional and exists only to sync progress between devices. Skipping it changes nothing else.

What we actively teach

Safety is part of the curriculum, not a page of fine print. Keep your secrets safe has learners practice refusing to share private information. Spot a trick teaches four warning signs: hurry, secret, money, and password. Robot Helpers ends with the learner writing their own safety rules for AI helpers.

The scam routine stays the same: stop; do not click, reply, or pay; tell a person you trust; then block or report it together. If the learner already acted, they are not in trouble. Ask them to tell you right away so you can decide what to do next together.

For other confusing, unsafe, money, medicine, account, or big-decision moments, stop and ask a person you trust. The lessons name that person as part of the team.

Money moments need you

The Make and Sell land teaches pricing and market day, and it repeats one rule at every step: a person you trust handles the money, the accounts, and meetings with strangers. If your learner receives benefits like SSI, read our Make and Sell family guide before the first real sale; earned income has rules.
