Habit Party

Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 2, 2026 · Lindon Digital LLC

Habit Party is a family app for chores and good habits. We collect only what the app needs to work, we never sell your information, and we don't show ads or use ad or analytics trackers. Kids never need an email address.

Who we are

Habit Party is made by Lindon Digital LLC (formerly Chore Coach LLC), a Washington limited liability company. Questions or requests go to our Privacy Officer: Privacy Officer, Lindon Digital LLC, support@lindondigital.com.

Two ways to use Habit Party

• With an account (most families). A grown-up creates an account, so the family can use Habit Party on several devices, with or without a Family Party subscription. That information is stored on our servers as described below.
• On this device only (older free version). Families who started before accounts existed may still use Habit Party without an account. Their information stays on that iPhone or iPad and we don't receive it.

What we collect with an account

Collected automatically: IP address, device and operating system type, app version, sign-in records, and a random family ID that we use with RevenueCat to check your subscription status.

How we use it: only to run Habit Party for your family, for sign-in, security, subscriptions and fixing bugs. We never use it for ads, for profiling, or to contact a child. There are no ads, no ad tracking and no analytics SDKs in Habit Party.

We do not collect location, contacts, photos, microphone or camera data, advertising identifiers, or a child's email or phone number. "Read tasks aloud" plays voices recorded into the app; for a task name a grown-up typed, the text (never who it belongs to) is turned into speech once by Microsoft Azure and the recording is kept for reuse. If that isn't available, your device's built-in voice reads it. Music and sounds are made on the device.

If you email us to hear when Habit Party launches, we use your email address only for that.

Children (COPPA notice)

Habit Party is designed for families with children, and we follow the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

• Parents set it up. Only a parent or guardian 18 or older can create an account. Children never create accounts and never give us an email address, phone number, photo, voice recording or location.
• Parent's consent first. Before a child under 13 is added, the child's parent or legal guardian confirms consent in the app. Other grown-ups invited to the family can't give this consent. We save the date of that consent with the child's profile.
• We tell the parent by email. When a child under 13 is added, we email the parent a notice that explains what we collect about the child, how we use it, and how to delete it.
• What we keep about a child: the first name or nickname and age the parent enters, the girl/boy choice for the character, the character's look, the tasks the parent sets, the child's check-offs, rest days, stars and items, and a scrambled PIN. We use it only to run the game for the family.
• Children under 13 stay in the family. They can't have friends, they don't get a friend code, and they're never shown to friends or to linked families. Their information is never shown to anyone outside your family.
• No ads, no tracking, no selling. We don't show ads, use advertising IDs or analytics trackers, or sell or rent any information. Service providers listed below process it only to run Habit Party for us, under written agreements to keep it secure.
• Parents are in control. A parent can review, change or delete a child's information at any time in Settings, refuse further collection by deleting the child's profile, or email us to ask for a copy or deletion.
• We ask again before changes. If we ever change how we collect, use or share a child's information, we'll ask the parent for consent again first.

Who can see your information

• Your family sees each other's characters and progress.
• Friends. Each grown-up and each kid 13 and up has their own 8-character friend code. Kids 13 to 17 can be friends only with other kids, and grown-ups only with grown-ups, and a grown-up in each family must approve. Friends see the person's first name and family name, character, this month's progress and today's count, and can send pre-made stickers and gifts. They can't see your task list or wallet, can't change anything, and there's no chat or free text. A grown-up can remove a friend at any time.
• Linked families. A family link connects two families, for relatives like grandparents. Linked families see each other's grown-ups and kids 13 and up, never children under 13.
• Service providers that run Habit Party for us: Supabase (database and login, hosted in the United States), RevenueCat (keeps track of whether your family has an active subscription; it receives a random family ID and Apple purchase details, never names or tasks), Apple (App Store and payments), Cloudflare (hosts this website) Resend (sends account emails and parent notices) and Microsoft Azure (turns the name of a task a grown-up typed into a spoken voice when read-aloud is on; it receives only that text, not who it belongs to, and doesn't keep it). They may use the information only to provide their service to us.

Friends and family links need Family Party. We don't sell or rent personal information, and we don't share it for advertising.

Keeping and deleting information

We keep information only as long as we need it to run Habit Party for your family:

• Active accounts: while the account is in use.
• Inactive accounts: if no one in the family signs in or uses the app for 12 months, we delete the family entirely, including all members' and children's information.
• Daily check-off history older than 3 years is deleted.
• Friend requests that aren't answered are deleted after 90 days.
• Backups: deleted information is gone from our backups within 30 days.

We keep children's information for the same purposes and time limits as above, and never longer than needed. Deleted information is removed from our database and can't be read back.

A grown-up can delete the account any time in Settings → Account → Delete account. This deletes the login, the family, and all members' data from our database right away, and from backups within 30 days. Deleting your account does not cancel an Apple subscription; cancel it in your Apple settings. Subscription records may be kept by Apple and RevenueCat as needed for billing and tax law. On the device-only version, deleting the app removes everything from the device.

Security

Data is sent over encrypted connections, and each family's data can be read only by that family's signed-in grown-ups (and, for limited progress info, by the friends and linked families they approved). No system is perfect, so please use a strong password.

Health information

Habit Party is a general-purpose task list, like a family calendar or checklist. We don't ask for, collect, or try to work out anyone's health status, medical conditions, diagnoses, medications, or body measurements, and we don't use what families type to infer health information. Families choose their own task names; whatever a family types (for example "Go to bed" or "Practice soccer") is stored as ordinary task text and shown only to that family. Friends see progress counts, not your task list. It is never sold, used for ads, or shared for any other purpose. Our separate Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy explains this in detail for Washington, Nevada and other residents.

Your choices and rights

You can see and edit your family's information in the app, ask us for a copy, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it by emailing support@lindondigital.com. Depending on where you live (for example California, Washington, Canada, Mexico, Taiwan or Hong Kong), you may have additional rights, such as confirming whether we hold your data, getting a copy, correcting it, deleting it, or withdrawing consent; we honor them for all users. We answer requests within 15 days. If we need more time, we'll tell you why, and we'll never take longer than the law where you live allows. If we turn down a request, you can appeal by replying to our answer with the word "Appeal"; we'll respond within 45 days, and if you're still not satisfied you can contact your state attorney general or your local privacy authority.

International users

Habit Party is available in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Taiwan and Hong Kong. Your information is stored and processed in the United States, where privacy laws may differ from those where you live. While it's in the United States, it may be accessible to U.S. courts, law enforcement and other authorities under U.S. law. We protect it as described in this policy wherever you are. Our Privacy Officer is responsible for how we handle personal information: Privacy Officer, Lindon Digital LLC, support@lindondigital.com.

Changes

If we change this policy in a way that matters, we'll tell you in the app before it takes effect. If a change affects how we collect, use or share a child's information, we'll ask the parent for consent again first.
