LittleLoop Privacy Policy
Last updated July 15, 2026
Who we are
LittleLoop (“we”) is a parent-controlled video playlist app. Parents review and approve individual videos; children watch only that approved list in a locked child mode. Contact: support@littleloopapp.com.
What we collect
Parent account. Email address and authentication data, processed by our sign-in provider Clerk. Used only to sign you in and sync your content between your devices.
Content you create. Child profile nickname, avatar choice, age range, and time-limit setting; the list of approved video links (video ID, title, channel name, duration, thumbnail URL as provided by YouTube). Child profiles do not require a real name.
Subscription status. Whether your account has an active LittleLoop Premium subscription, processed by RevenueCat and the Apple App Store / Google Play. We never see your payment details.
Family sharing. When the main caregiver invites another caregiver, family members can see each other’s account email and access the shared child profiles, settings, approved playlists, and watch activity. Invitation links expire after seven days and can be revoked by the main caregiver.
Crash reports. Technical crash data via Sentry: device model, OS version, and stack traces. We configure Sentry to send no personally identifying information, no child names, and no video titles.
What never leaves the device
- Parent PIN — stored only as a salted hash in the device Keychain/Keystore. It is never transmitted, logged, or recoverable by us.
- Watch activity on the free plan — sessions, daily totals, and most-watched statistics are stored only on the device and are deleted with the app.
Children's privacy
LittleLoop is operated for and by parents. Child mode collects no personal information from children: there is no search, no browsing, no comments, no account for the child, and no advertising of our own. Video playback uses YouTube’s privacy-enhanced embedded player (youtube-nocookie.com). Videos may include ads served by the video platform; we have no control over and receive no data from them. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13; the only child-related data we store is the nickname, avatar, and settings a parent chooses to enter.
Third-party processors
| Service | Purpose | Data |
|---|---|---|
| Clerk | Parent sign-in | Email, auth tokens |
| RevenueCat | Subscription management | Store receipt, anonymized user id |
| Sentry | Crash reporting | Device/OS info, stack traces |
| YouTube (Google) | Video playback, metadata, thumbnails | Video requests from the device |
We do not sell personal data, do not run third-party advertising, and do not use cross-app tracking.
Data retention & deletion
Account data is retained while your account exists. For the main caregiver, Settings → Delete account & data removes the entire family. For an invited caregiver, it removes only their account and family access. You can also request deletion at littleloopapp.com/delete-account or by emailing support@littleloopapp.com; we complete requests within 30 days.
Changes
We will update this page and the “last updated” date for material changes, and note them in release notes.
