4. AI disclosure
Coo uses artificial intelligence (Anthropic's Claude) to provide chat responses, generate daily summaries, detect patterns, and create personalized guidance. When you interact with AI features:
- Your baby's relevant data is sent to Anthropic's API to generate personalized responses.
- Anthropic does not use your data to train their models (per their commercial API terms).
- AI-generated content is informational and does not constitute medical advice. Always consult your pediatrician for medical concerns.
- Chat conversations are user-private. Your partner cannot see your individual chat history.
5. How we share your information
We do not sell your personal data. We do not display ads. We share data only in these limited circumstances:
- Within your household: Baby care data (logs, milestones, growth) is shared with other members of your household. Chat conversations remain private.
- Service providers: Anthropic (AI processing), Sentry (error monitoring), PostHog (analytics), Resend (transactional email), Apple (payments via App Store), RevenueCat (subscription management).
- Legal requirements: When required by law, legal process, or to protect the safety of our users.
6. Children's privacy (COPPA)
Coo collects information about children (baby care data entered by parents) but does not collect information from children. Coo is designed for use by parents and caregivers who are at least 18 years old. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at privacy@coofamily.com.
7. Data security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and secure server infrastructure. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure.
8. Data retention
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, your personal data is permanently removed. Shared household data (baby logs, milestones) may remain accessible to other household members. Database backups are retained for 14 days on a rolling basis.
9. Your rights
You may:
- Access and export your data (CSV or PDF export available to Premium subscribers).
- Update or correct your personal information through your profile settings.
- Delete your account and associated data by contacting us.
