Privacy Policy
Thank you for using PlayPrep. This Privacy Policy explains how PlayPrep Labs LLC collects, uses, shares, and protects your information when you use our mobile application and related services. We are committed to transparency and to keeping your information safe.
1. Who We Are
PlayPrep is a mobile application designed to help anyone plan, organize, and manage activities, crafts, field trips, and learning experiences — including parents, teachers, homeschoolers, camp counselors, group leaders, and individuals planning activities for themselves or others of any age. PlayPrep is operated by PlayPrep Labs LLC, an Indiana limited liability company.
- Company: PlayPrep Labs LLC
- State of formation: Indiana, USA
- Contact: PlayPrepApp@gmail.com
2. Who This App Is For
PlayPrep is intended for use by anyone age 13 and older who plans or participates in activities — including parents, educators, homeschoolers, camp counselors, group leaders, and adult learners. The app supports activity planning for participants of all ages, from young children to adults.
Any information about participants — such as names, birthdates, age ranges, interests, or accessibility preferences — is entered by the account holder (who must be at least 13 years old) on behalf of themselves or others in their group.
By using PlayPrep, you confirm that you are at least 13 years old. If you are under 18, you confirm that a parent or guardian has reviewed and agreed to this policy on your behalf.
3. Information We Collect
3.1 Account Information
When you create a PlayPrep account, we collect:
- Your email address and password (if you register with email)
- Your name (if provided during sign-up)
- Authentication tokens when you sign in with Apple or Google
Account authentication is powered by Supabase (see Section 6). We do not store your Apple or Google passwords.
3.2 Content You Create
Data you enter into PlayPrep is stored on our servers (Supabase) and locally on your device. This includes:
- Activity titles, descriptions, steps, tips, and supply lists
- Photos you add to activities or places
- Participant profile information: nicknames, birthdates, age groups, interest preferences, and accessibility preferences (such as sensory preferences or mobility notes)
- Places and field trip details
- Planning, scheduling, and calendar data
- Shopping list and supply closet data
- Collections and organizational data
3.3 Location Data
PlayPrep may request access to your device's location for the following purposes:
- Places feature: To geocode addresses you enter for field trips and local places, allowing them to appear on the in-app map. Geocoding is performed using Apple's on-device geocoding service (no data is sent to Google for this purpose).
- Spark AI recommendations: If you enable location for Spark, your approximate location may be used to provide location-relevant activity suggestions.
Location access is optional. You can use PlayPrep without granting location permission. You can revoke location access at any time in your device settings.
3.4 Imported Content
PlayPrep allows you to import activity content from third-party URLs. When you use this feature, the source URL is permanently associated with the imported activity to preserve attribution. You are responsible for ensuring your use of imported content complies with the original creator's terms and copyright.
3.5 Crash Reports & Diagnostics
PlayPrep uses Sentry (sentry.io) for crash reporting and error diagnostics. When the app crashes or encounters an error, Sentry automatically collects:
- The type and location of the error in the code
- Device type, operating system version, and app version
- A stack trace (technical log of what the app was doing)
- Your anonymous user ID (if logged in) — not your name or email
Sentry data is used only to identify and fix bugs. It is not used for advertising. You can review Sentry's privacy practices at sentry.io/privacy.
3.6 Subscription & Payment Data
PlayPrep subscriptions (Pro and Pro Plus) are managed by RevenueCat. RevenueCat processes subscription status, entitlements, and renewal data. We do not handle or store your payment card details — all payment processing is handled by Apple's App Store or Google Play. RevenueCat's privacy policy is available at revenuecat.com/privacy.
3.7 Push Notifications
If you enable push notifications, PlayPrep may store a device push token to deliver local and server-triggered notifications (such as plan reminders). You can disable notifications at any time in your device settings or in the app's Notifications settings screen.

- Service providers: Supabase, Sentry, RevenueCat, and AdMob receive data as described above to provide their services.
- Affiliate networks: Clicking affiliate links sends click data to Amazon or other affiliate partners. We do not share your name, email, or account data with affiliate partners.
- Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or to protect the rights and safety of PlayPrep Labs LLC, our users, or the public.
- Business transfer: If PlayPrep Labs LLC is acquired, merged, or transfers assets, your data may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such change.

9. Minors & Participant Privacy
PlayPrep accounts must be held by users age 13 or older. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. Participant profile data (nicknames, birthdates, interests, accessibility preferences) is entered by the account holder — an adult or older teen — on behalf of themselves or others in their group, and is stored within the account holder's account.
If you believe a child under 13 has independently created an account and provided personal information, please contact us at PlayPrepApp@gmail.com and we will delete that account and information promptly.
10. Security
We implement industry-standard security measures including:
- Encryption in transit (TLS/HTTPS) for all data sent between your device and our servers
- Encryption at rest for data stored in Supabase
- Row-level security policies to ensure users can only access their own data
- Secure authentication via Supabase Auth with support for Apple Sign In and Google OAuth
No system is perfectly secure. We encourage you to use a strong password and to keep your device software up to date.
