We process personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (EU) 2016/679.

2. Who May Use the App

Play Play Play! is intended for parents or legal guardians aged 18 years or older.

Accounts may only be created by adults.
Children do not create accounts themselves.

Parents are solely responsible for the child profiles they create and manage.

3. Our Data Minimisation Approach

We apply the principle of data minimisation under Article 5 GDPR.

We only collect personal data that is necessary to provide the core functionality of coordinating playground meet-ups.

We do not collect GPS tracking data or real-time location data.

4. Personal Data We Collect

Parents may create a child profile including:

    • First name

    • School

    • Group/class

    • City

    • Postal code (used to center the playground map)

    • Parental consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR)

By creating a child profile, the parent confirms they are the legal guardian and consent to the processing of the child’s personal data.

5. Playground Check-Ins & Visibility

When a parent checks in at a playground:

    • The child’s first name and picture, and check-in information is visible to other parents whose children have been added as “friends”.

    • Connected “friends” may receive notifications (push and/or email).

    • Check-in information is self-declared by parents.

    • We do not verify physical presence.

We recommend that parents only connect with families they know personally.

6. Visibility, Search & Friend Connections

Play Play Play! operates within a closed environment accessible only to registered parent users.

Child profiles are never publicly searchable or accessible outside the app.

A. Search Functionality

Registered parents may search for other children within the app using one or more of the following details:

    • First name

    • School

    • Group/class

When a profile matches the search criteria, the following information may be visible to the searching parent:

    • Child’s first name

    • Profile picture (if uploaded)

    • School

    • City

Search functionality is designed to help parents connect with families they already know (for example, through school or existing community relationships).

Search results are only visible to authenticated parent users.

B. Friend Connections

When a parent accepts a friendship request:

    • The connected parents may receive notifications (push and/or email) when the other child checks in at a playground.

    • The child’s first name, profile photo, and selected playground may be visible to the connected parent.

Parents may remove friendships at any time.
