Privacy, in plain language

Family OS holds some of the most personal information a family has. This page says, without legal fog, what we keep, where it lives, who can see it, and how you take it back.

What we store

  • Your account email and a securely hashed password.
  • The family members you add: names, roles, birthdays, and an optional profile photo.
  • Whatever you choose to enter — calendar events, tasks, goals, budgets and transactions, meals, routines, kids' quests, memories, documents lists and notes.
  • Photos you upload to memories and milestones.

We never ask for bank logins, full account numbers, or passwords to other services. The Vault stores a reference to where a credential lives (for example, an entry in your password manager), not the credential itself.

Who can see it

  • Only people in your family who have signed in. Access rules are enforced in the database itself, per family, on every table.
  • Money, vault, insurance, documents and estate sections are limited to parents. Children's accounts cannot read them.
  • We do not sell your data, show ads, or use third-party advertising or analytics trackers.

Services that help run the app

  • Supabase — database, sign-in and private photo storage (hosted in the United States).
  • Vercel — hosts the website.
  • Resend — sends sign-up, invitation, password-reset and daily-brief emails.

Some features fetch information from outside services. They receive only what the feature needs:

  • Weather (Open-Meteo): the coordinates of the city you set.
  • Investment prices (Yahoo Finance, CoinGecko): ticker symbols only — never quantities or values.
  • Verse lookup (bible-api.com): the verse reference you type.
  • Calendar subscriptions: we fetch the calendar link you provide.
  • Family Assistant (Anthropic), only where it has been switched on: your question plus the family information needed to answer it. Vault, estate, documents and private parenting notes are never sent.

Cookies and device storage

We use a sign-in cookie to keep you logged in, and your browser's local storage for preferences like dark mode. That is all.

Children

Family OS is set up and managed by parents or guardians. Information about children is entered by them, and any child sign-in is created at a parent's invitation and limited to the child's own quests and rewards screen.

Your controls

  • Export: Settings → “Download family backup” gives you every record as a file.
  • Delete: the family owner can permanently delete the whole family and its photos from Settings → “Delete this family”.
  • Email: the daily brief can be turned off in Settings at any time.

Changes

If this page changes in a way that matters, we will update the date at the top and tell signed-in families inside the app.
