ACTIQO (“we,” “our,” or “us”) helps parents and guardians stay on top of their children’s activities. This policy explains what information ACTIQO collects, how we use it, who processes it on our behalf, how long we keep it, and the choices you have. We do not sell your family’s information, we do not share it with advertisers, and ACTIQO is ad-free.
ACTIQO accounts are held by adults (18 or older). Children do not have accounts and cannot sign in. A child in ACTIQO is a profile that the account holder creates and manages. Information about children is provided through adult-held ACTIQO accounts; children do not enter information directly or hold ACTIQO accounts.
ACTIQO uses location in two different ways, and it matters which is which:
Our Terms of Service describe the permission you give ACTIQO to process your information for these purposes. You keep ownership of the information you add.
Some features — weekly and monthly Insights and summaries, reflection write-ups, Highlight headlines, and short contextual messages after a session or result — are generated with Google’s Gemini service. To produce them, we send Google the information the feature needs, which can include your children’s names, activity names, attendance and enjoyment and energy ratings, costs, session results and scores, and the free text you write in Check-In notes, reflections, and Highlights. Google returns written text, which we store in your account and show to you. If the AI service is unavailable, ACTIQO produces the same features with its own non-AI logic instead. AI output is informational and can be wrong; it is not professional advice.
Check-In texts. If you verify your phone number and turn on Check-In texts, ACTIQO sends a text after a session so you can record the Check-In by replying. That is the only kind of text ACTIQO sends. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to stop all texts or HELP for help. You can also turn texts off in Settings.
Email. We send account and service emails (for example, sign-in, invitations, and support replies) and, unless you turn it off, a weekly read of your family’s activities. Every non-essential email includes a way to unsubscribe.
We do not use these tools for cross-app or cross-site tracking, and none of them are used for advertising.
We do not sell your personal information and we do not share it with advertisers. Trusted service providers process information on our behalf, only as needed to operate ACTIQO, under agreements that restrict how they may use it:
We may also disclose information when the law requires it, to protect the rights and safety of ACTIQO and its users, or as part of a business transaction such as a merger or acquisition, in which case this policy will continue to apply to your information.
We may create aggregated or de-identified information — for example, how often families in a region attend a type of activity, or typical enjoyment trends by age band — once it can no longer reasonably identify you, your child, or your household. We use it to improve ACTIQO, build and refine recommendations and benchmarks, and for research, analytics, and planning, and we may keep it after your account is deleted. We do not intentionally re-identify information that has been properly de-identified. Our long-term recommendation and benchmark data is built from de-identified features such as age bands, activity categories, participation frequency, distance and cost bands, and attendance and enjoyment trends, not from names, contact details, exact addresses, precise coordinates, or the verbatim text you write.
We keep your household information while your account is active, so that your family’s history, coordination, and Insights keep working. We do not automatically delete useful history from an active account just because it is old. Beyond that, this is our retention schedule:
| Information | How long |
|---|---|
| Inactive accounts | After 36 months without meaningful use of your account, we delete or de-identify your household information unless the law or another purpose described here requires longer. |
| When you delete your account | We aim to remove your personal information from our active systems within 30 days, and sooner where the law requires it. |
| Backups | Deleted information can remain in backup and disaster-recovery copies for up to 90 days. Backups are used only to recover from a failure, never for product, analytics, model, or marketing purposes, and deletions are re-applied if a backup is restored. |
| Check-In text records | The minimum record needed to show consent, STOP, HELP, and delivery (not the message content) is kept for 5 years after the last text. Ordinary text content is kept for up to 12 months unless it became part of your saved Check-In history. |
| Marketing opt-outs | The minimum record needed to keep honoring your opt-out is kept indefinitely and used for nothing else. |
| Billing and tax records | Records needed for tax, accounting, refunds, and disputes are kept for 7 years. This does not extend to family or child information. |
| Security and audit logs | 24 months, or longer for records tied to an actual security incident, fraud, investigation, or legal matter. |
| Support records | 24 months after the matter is closed, or longer for an unresolved dispute or legal obligation. |
| Raw product analytics | 24 months, then deleted, aggregated, or de-identified. |
| De-identified and aggregated information | Kept indefinitely, as described above. |
| Legal holds | Where a legal, regulatory, tax, security, or litigation obligation requires it, we keep only the specific records needed for that purpose, and we do not use them for anything else while they are held. |
ACTIQO is designed for parents and guardians, not for children, and is not directed at children under 13. Only adults hold accounts. Information about children — such as a child’s name, birthdate, and activity schedule — is entered by the parent or guardian who holds the account, and that parent or guardian can view, correct, or delete it at any time in the app or by emailing us. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13, and we do not share children’s information with advertisers or third-party marketers. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided personal information directly to ACTIQO, we will delete it promptly.
We use technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect your information, including encryption in transit, access controls, and encryption of stored data by our hosting and authentication providers. No system is perfectly secure, so please keep your sign-in credentials private.
We may update this policy as ACTIQO, the law, or our service providers change. We will post the updated policy here with a new “Last updated” date and, for material changes, tell you by email before they take effect where reasonably possible.
