How SafePlay Protects Your Privacy
When you use SafePlay, you're trusting us with information about what you watch. We take that trust seriously. Here's an inside look at how we protect your privacy.
Our Privacy Philosophy
Our approach to privacy is simple: collect only what we need, protect everything we have, and never sell your data. We're in the business of filtering content, not monetizing your viewing habits.
Minimal Collection
We only collect what's essential to provide the service.
Strong Encryption
All data is encrypted in transit and at rest.
No Data Selling
We never sell your data to advertisers or third parties.
Your Control
You can delete your data anytime you choose.
What We Collect (And Why)
Account Information
When you sign up, we collect your email address and name. That's it. We use this to:
- Let you log in to your account
- Send important service updates
- Respond to support requests
Payment Information
If you subscribe to a paid plan, we use Stripe to process payments. We never see or store your full credit card number — that's handled entirely by Stripe, which is certified to the highest security standards (PCI-DSS Level 1).
Filtering Activity
When you filter a video, we record which video was filtered and when. This allows us to:
- Let you re-watch filtered videos without using more credits
- Show your filtering history in your dashboard
- Provide usage statistics and credit tracking
Important: We don't track what you watch — only what you actively choose to filter through SafePlay. Regular YouTube viewing isn't tracked by us at all.
What We Don't Do
We don't sell data to advertisers
Our business model is subscriptions, not advertising.
We don't build profiles for targeting
We don't analyze your viewing patterns to serve you ads or recommendations.
We don't store video content
We process audio to identify profanity, but we don't store the videos themselves.
We don't share with third parties
Your data stays with us (and the service providers necessary to operate, like our hosting provider and payment processor).
Family Privacy
Family accounts have additional privacy considerations. Here's how we handle them:
Family Account Privacy
- Parental visibility: Parents on the account can see children's viewing history. This is by design for parental oversight.
- Profile separation: Siblings can't see each other's history — only parents have cross-profile visibility.
- Children's privacy: We comply with COPPA and don't collect personal information from children beyond what's necessary for the service.
