Privacy Policy

Tamil Chuvadi is run by ABCs of Learning Pte. Ltd. ("we", "us"). This page explains, in plain words, what we keep about parents and children, why we keep it, who can see it, and how to ask us to delete it. We follow Singapore's Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA).

Please Use A Nickname For Your Child

Your child only needs to type a name to play. We suggest a nickname or first name only, not a full name and never a school or class. Nothing else about your child is asked for.

What We Keep

  • About the parent: your name, your email address, and your password (kept in a scrambled form, so we cannot read it).
  • About each child: the nickname you give, and its Tamil spelling if you add one. A parent PIN is kept in scrambled form too.
  • Learning results: the levels a child has reached, best typing speeds, and certificates earned in our games.
  • Your plan: whether you are on Free or Pro, the date your paid time runs to, and whether you pay monthly or yearly.
  • Payment records: when you buy Pro, our store (run on Shopify) takes the payment. We receive only the order number, amount, date, and your Shopify customer number. We never see or keep your card details.
  • On your device: a sign-in cookie that keeps you logged in, a cookie that remembers when a device is in kids' mode, and some game progress stored in your browser.

We do not run advertising, we do not use advertising trackers, and we do not sell your information.

Why We Keep It

  • To run your account and sign you in.
  • To save each child's progress and show it to you in the parent portal.
  • To give Pro access for the time you have paid for, and to match payments to the right account.
  • To email you about your account (for example confirming your address or resetting a password) and about your plan.
  • To keep the service safe and fix problems.

By creating an account you agree to us using your information for these purposes. A parent or guardian must create the account and agree on behalf of any child. You can withdraw your agreement at any time by asking us to delete your account (see below), though we then cannot keep the account running.

Who Can See It

  • You. The parent sees the family's nicknames and results in the parent portal. Other families cannot see yours.
  • Us. A small number of people at ABCs of Learning Pte. Ltd. can reach the data when they need to run the service or help you.
  • Services that help us run the site: our database and sign-in provider (Supabase), our website host (Vercel), our store and payment provider (Shopify), and the service that sends our emails. They handle data only to do that job for us. Some of them store data outside Singapore, and we choose providers that protect it to a standard comparable to the PDPA.
  • The authorities, only if the law requires us to share.

How Long We Keep It

We keep your account and your children's results while your account is open. When you ask us to delete your account, we delete the parent account, the children and their results. Records of payments may be kept for as long as the law requires for accounting and tax, and these do not include your children's details.

Your Choices

  • See or correct your information: change your name and your children's nicknames in the parent portal, or ask us.
  • Ask for a copy of what we hold about you.
  • Delete your account and your children's data: email us from the address on your account at aysha.iqbal@abcsoftamil.com with the subject "Delete my Tamil Chuvadi account". We will confirm it is you, then delete the account within 30 days and tell you when it is done. Deleting the account does not cancel a subscription: please cancel it in your subscription account first (see Manage Your Subscription).

Keeping It Safe

Each family can only open its own records. Passwords and PINs are stored scrambled, secret keys stay on our servers, and payment notices from our store are checked before we act on them. No system is perfect. If a breach puts your information at significant risk, we will tell you and the authorities as the PDPA requires.

Questions Or Complaints

Our contact for data protection is Aysha Iqbal, aysha.iqbal@abcsoftamil.com. We may update this page as the service grows, and we will change the date at the top when we do.
