Multiple ad platforms with children-specific networks are embedded, meaning children using the app will see ads from many sources. Data from the app flows to analytics and tracking services that build profiles across sessions.

Recommendation: Use With Caution

Best For: Kids with parental supervision and ad exposure expected

Understanding the Scores

Positive Security Features

• None identified in this version of the app.

Areas for Improvement

• The app shares children's activity with over a dozen advertising networks at once, including platforms not designed for children's audiences, expanding the reach of children's personal data well beyond the app itself.
• Behavioral data from sessions is sent to multiple analytics and attribution services with limited parental controls available to restrict or stop this sharing.
• Data flows to advertising platforms operating across multiple regions, meaning information is distributed broadly with little transparency about retention or downstream use.
