Protecting young players' privacy is fundamental to how we build Knowley:

• Minimal Data Collection: Creating an account requires only basic credentials (email and chosen username). We never request real names, phone numbers, or physical addresses.
• Guest Play Supported: Users can explore categories and answer questions without creating an account or sharing any personal information.
• Parental Rights: Parents or legal guardians may review, request modifications to, or request the immediate deletion of their child's account and personal data at any time by contacting our support team or using our Deletion Portal.
