Terms of Use

1. Description of the service

KidPapa is a family app that helps children build independence through routines, encouragement, and a visual progress system. KidPapa is not a childcare service, a medical tool, a certified educational tool, or a safety device. It is an organizational tool meant to support, not replace, parental supervision.

2. Account and parent responsibilities

The account is created and managed by a parent or legal guardian ("the account holder"), who is solely responsible for:

• the accuracy of information provided on children's profiles;
• the confidentiality of their password and the security of their account;
• supervising how the app is used by children in their care;
• decisions made regarding the sharing features described in section 3.

3. Family sharing — risks and responsibilities

KidPapa lets the account holder generate a link that grants unauthenticated access to a child's profile (for example, for grandparents or a babysitter), at an access level chosen by the account holder (view-only or full access).

The account holder acknowledges and agrees that:

• once this link is shared, KidPapa has no technical way to control who uses it, or to prevent it from being forwarded to unauthorized third parties;
• in "full access" mode, anyone in possession of the link can modify the child's progress data;
• the account holder is solely responsible for deciding whether to share this link, the access level granted, and who they share it with;
• the account holder can revoke access at any time from their account, which immediately invalidates unauthenticated access — but cannot guarantee that a copy of the link hasn't already been saved or forwarded elsewhere.

4. Children's personal information

KidPapa processes information about children (first name, birth year, habits) strictly for the purpose of providing the service, in accordance with Quebec's Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (Law 25). This information is never sold or used for advertising. The account holder remains responsible for obtaining any consent required to create a child's profile.

5. Intellectual property

The KidPapa name, the Kiko character, and the app's design and code belong to their creators. Content you create (children's names, routines) belongs to you; you grant KidPapa a limited license to host and display it as part of the service.

6. Disclaimer of liability

KidPapa is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including without limitation warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or uninterrupted service.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, KidPapa and its operators shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages resulting from:

• use or inability to use the service;
• any unauthorized access resulting from the account holder sharing a family link;
• any parenting decision made based on information shown in the app;
• any interruption, data loss, or technical error.

This limitation does not apply to damages resulting from gross or intentional misconduct, or where applicable law prohibits such a limitation.

7. Termination

The account holder may stop using the service at any time. KidPapa reserves the right to suspend or terminate an account in case of a violation of these terms.

8. Changes

These terms may be updated. Significant changes will be communicated to account holders by email or an in-app notice.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the province of Quebec and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.
