Last Updated: July 19th, 2025

This Privacy Policy describes how Sola Fide Technologies ("we", "us", "our") handles your information when you use the Path of Progress website and progressive web application ("Service").

We are committed to protecting your privacy and complying with applicable privacy legislation, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and relevant Alberta privacy laws.

1. Scope and Consent

By using the Path of Progress website or application, you consent to the limited information collection and handling practices described in this Privacy Policy. The application is designed for use by parents and guardians who manage accounts for their children.

2. What We Collect

Website Visitors

When you visit the Path of Progress website, we do not use cookies, third-party analytics, or tracking scripts. We do not collect any personal information from website visitors unless you voluntarily provide it (e.g., by signing up for an account or contacting us).

Account Holders

We collect limited personal information from the parent or guardian who creates the main account. This includes:

Full name
Email address
Date of birth
Login credentials (email/password or federated identity if supported)

We also collect family account-specific content, including:

Child profile names (as entered by the parent; these may be real names, nicknames, or titles)
Chore names and recurrence
Coin and gem balances linked to child profiles

We do not collect any personal information directly from children, nor do we allow them to create or manage their own accounts.

3. How We Use This Information

We use the above information to:

Create and authenticate the parent account
Display and manage chore progress, rewards, and profiles
Send necessary service-related notifications (e.g., password resets)
Provide parental access to chore data and family dashboard features

We do not use your personal information for marketing or advertising, nor do we use third-party analytics to track user behavior.

4. Who Has Access

All app data is accessible only to users logged into the same family account.
We do not share, sell, rent, or disclose your information to any third parties.

5. Data Storage and Security

All data is stored securely in our managed backend.
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to safeguard data against unauthorized access or loss.
However, no system is 100% secure, and we disclaim liability for data breaches or outages. Use of the Service is at your own risk.

6. Children's Privacy

Path of Progress is designed to be used under parental supervision only. The application is structured so that:

Only parents or guardians can create accounts.
Children interact only through profiles managed and monitored by parents.
No personal data is collected directly from children.

We do not knowingly collect any information subject to child privacy laws (such as COPPA in the US), as we rely on parental control of all inputs.

7. Data Retention

We retain information only as long as needed to provide the Service's functionality. Parents may request that data be removed by contacting us directly.

8. Third-Party Services

The Service does not use or integrate with third-party services for analytics, advertising, login, or data processing.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any updates will be posted on this page and within the application, and the "Last Updated" date will be revised accordingly. Continued use of the Service indicates acceptance of the updated terms.
