Last updated: April 1, 2026
Overview
Girl Dad is a mobile app designed to help fathers build stronger relationships with their daughters. We take your privacy seriously, and we want to be clear about what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we protect it.
This policy applies to all users of the Girl Dad app.

Daughter Profile Data
To personalize your experience, we collect:

This data helps us improve the app experience. It is not linked to your personal identity.

Children's Privacy
Girl Dad is designed for adult users: fathers and father figures. The app is not directed at children under the age of 13.
We collect limited information about your daughter (name and age) only to customize your content experience. This information is associated with your adult account and is not used to build a profile on or market to your child.
If you believe a child has created an account or submitted personal information without parental consent, please contact us and we will delete the information promptly.
Data Sharing
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties.
We may share data with:
- Service providers: Trusted vendors who help us operate the app (e.g., hosting, analytics, customer support). These vendors are contractually required to protect your data.
- Apple: As required to process In-App Purchases and deliver the app through the App Store.
- Legal authorities: If required by law, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of our users or the public.
Data Retention
We retain your account and profile data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.
Anonymized analytics data may be retained indefinitely.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data
- Withdraw consent for optional data processing
- Lodge a complaint with a data protection authority
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the address below.
Security
We use industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. We encourage you to use a strong, unique password for your account.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you in the app or via email before the changes take effect.
