Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us. This policy explains how ParentWise handles your data.

Privacy-First Commitment

ParentWise collects NO personal data. We don't have user accounts, we don't track you, and we don't sell your information. Everything you do on ParentWise stays on your device.

What We Don't Collect

  • No email addresses or contact information
  • No user accounts or passwords
  • No personal health information about you or your children
  • No browsing history or usage tracking
  • No cookies for tracking or advertising
  • No third-party analytics or advertising networks

Local-Only Data Storage

ParentWise uses your browser's local storage (IndexedDB and localStorage) to save:

  • Bookmarks: Pages you've saved for quick access
  • History: Recently viewed references (last 10 items)
  • Preferences: Settings like units (lbs/kg), temperature scale (F/C), dark mode
  • Tool Data: Charts you've created, routines you've built

This data never leaves your device. It's stored locally in your browser and is not transmitted to our servers or any third parties.

You can delete all locally stored data at any time by clearing your browser's cache and local storage.

Technical Information

Like most websites, our web server may log basic technical information:

  • IP address (for security and performance monitoring)
  • Browser type and version
  • Page requested and response code
  • Referrer URL

This information is used solely for security, performance optimization, and debugging. It is not used to track individual users or build profiles.

AI Features (Optional)

If you use optional AI-powered features (such as "Explain this calculation"), your input may be sent to Vercel AI Gateway for processing. This includes:

  • The specific text or data you submit to the AI feature
  • No personal identifying information
  • No health information unless you explicitly enter it

AI features are clearly labeled and opt-in. You control what information is sent for processing.

PWA Offline Functionality

ParentWise is a Progressive Web App (PWA) that caches content on your device for offline access. This means:

  • Key references and guides are stored in your browser's cache
  • You can access this content without an internet connection
  • Cached content is stored locally and not transmitted anywhere

External Links

ParentWise may contain links to external websites (such as partner services or reference sources). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external sites. Please review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.

Children's Privacy

ParentWise does not collect any information from children. While our content is about children, our service is designed for parents and caregivers. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. Your continued use of ParentWise after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

Last Updated: November 2025
