SimplyCub

Trust Center

We earn your trust as a feature. Here’s exactly what the cub is, how it works, what we do and don’t collect, and the promises we keep — in plain language.

Our promises

  • No ads, ever

    No advertising in the app, anywhere, at any age.

  • We never sell data

    Your family’s data is yours. We never sell or share it.

  • No engagement tricks

    No autoplay, no endless feeds, no streak guilt, no surprise rewards.

  • COPPA by design

    Built to collect the minimum from children, with parent-gated controls.

  • Accuracy guardrail

    Every math and fact step is verified before it reaches your child.

  • A helper, not a person

    The cub is honest that it’s a friendly helper — and points back to real people.

What the cub is

The cub is a friendly, AI-powered learning helper — not a real person, and not a replacement for people. It talks, teaches, and plays to help your child learn, and it’s designed to gently point your child back to family, friends, and the real world.

How it works

  • Powered by Claude AI

    The cub uses Anthropic’s Claude to understand and reply. All AI keys live on our servers — never on your child’s device.

  • Teaches, never just answers

    The cub guides with questions (Socratic), and every math or factual step is double-checked before your child hears it.

  • Safe by design

    Every message is filtered for age-appropriateness, conversations stay on learning (no drift), and worrying moments are surfaced to you.

  • You can see everything

    Every word exchanged is saved as a transcript you can read any time. Nothing is hidden.

What we collect

  • A first name or nickname, and an age
  • A few interests, to make learning personal
  • Learning progress and the cub conversations (visible to you)

What we never collect

  • No surname, address, school, or phone number
  • No photos of your child, contacts, or location
  • No biometric or advertising identifiers
  • No data sold or shared with advertisers — ever

A healthy companion

Default

Your cub is a friendly helper, not a person — and it’s designed to bring your child back to the people who love them, never to replace them.

  • Honest about what it is

    Age-appropriately clear that the cub is a friendly helper made by computers — not a real person.

  • Points to the real world

    The cub encourages family, friends, outdoor play, and rest — real connection comes first.

  • No unhealthy dependence

    It never claims to be your child’s only friend or a substitute for people, and never discourages offline time.
