Important Privacy Information for Parents

 

Hi Parents! In order for you to log in to the Ketabi app with your IntGen account and enable additional parental controls and other customization features, we ask that you review the information below.

 

When logging in to the Ketabi app, you can create profiles for your child, which give you access to parental controls to manage what your child watches in the app and enable other customization preferences. In addition, if available in your country, you can also activate your Ketabi Premium membership in the app, which will allow your child to watch Ketabi free of paid ads and to watch content offline.

 

Information We Collect and How We Use It

Unless you sign in to the app and create a profile for your child, Ketabi operates as a signed-out service. This means that we don't allow your child to sign in (except in certain instances as described in the section called "Signing in to Ketabi with your child's IntGen Account") and you don't need to use your IntGen account for the app to work. If you choose to sign in to the app to use your Ketabi Premium subscription or enable profiles and access certain parental controls and customization preferences, we collect and use the additional information described in the section called "Signing in to Ketabi with your IntGen Account" below.

 

Information we collect

Ketabi collects information based on your child's use of the app, like when they watch a video.

 

Information about the device and app used to access the service. This information includes:

 

device type and settings, such as hardware model and operating system version;

log information, including details of how our service is used, device event information, and the device's Internet protocol (IP) address;

unique application numbers, such as application version number; and

unique identifiers, which are used to collect and store information about an app or device, such as preferred language, app activity and other settings.

App activity. This information includes the videos your child watches, their search terms, and other interactions with content and ads in the app. If a child uses audio features in the app such as voice search, the app briefly collects voice information. This information is processed to allow for use of the audio feature and immediately deleted. 

 

How we use the information we collect

We use the information we collect for internal operational purposes, such as spam and abuse prevention, enforcing our content license restrictions, determining preferred language and providing and improving the service.

 

We also use this information to offer users personalized content. We associate an identifier that's unique to the app with the videos your child has watched and terms they've searched for to recommend content likely to be of interest to them, subject to the controls described below.

 

We use unique identifiers to provide contextual advertising, including ad frequency capping. The app does not allow interest-based advertising or remarketing.

 

Ketabi does not allow your child to share personal information with third parties or make it publicly available.

 

Signing in to Ketabi with a Parent's IntGen Account: Additional Information We Collect and How We Use It

In some countries, we prompt parents to sign in to Ketabi with their IntGen Account to create a profile for their child, enable additional parental controls and customization preferences for their child, and use their Ketabi Premium membership in the app. If a parent chooses not to sign in with their IntGen Account, the app can be used in the signed out state, as described above.

 

If you sign in to Ketabi with your IntGen Account, the app will collect your IntGen Account information, such as email address and password, and, as applicable, will collect profile information for any profiles you create for your child, as well as your parental controls and customization preferences. The profile information will include your child’s name or nickname, their age, and their month of birth if you choose to provide it. The app will collect customization preferences such as videos blocked from the app, videos you may allow in the app, and channels to which they may subscribe. The app also collects the child’s app activity data including watch and search history specific to each child, as described above.

 

We will use this information to provide the following features:

 

If applicable, enabling Ketabi Premium benefits, such as offline access to content, background play and no paid ads, in the Ketabi app on all your devices;

Enable you to create limited profiles for your child; and

Enable additional parental controls and customization preferences associated with each of the profiles in the app on all your devices. These may include allowing or blocking certain videos from the app and allowing each profile to subscribe to channels in the app.

When you sign in with your IntGen account, we use the watch and search history tied to each specific installation of the app to recommend content on Ketabi, as described above, and we will continue to use that watch and search history for recommendations even if you sign out of the app, unless they are cleared and paused in the settings section as described below.

 

When you create a profile for your child associated with your IntGen account, we will use the information tied to each profile to offer the child personalized content likely to be of interest to them, subject to the controls described below.

 

Information we share

We will not disclose individual user information outside of IntGen unless one of the following circumstances applies:

 

With consent

 

We may share individual user information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of IntGen when we have parental consent.

We will share individual user information with companies, organizations or individuals outside of IntGen if we have a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:

For legal reasons

 

meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request;

enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations;

detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; and

protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Google, our users or the public as required or permitted by law.

For external processing

 

We may provide individual user information to our affiliates or other trusted businesses or persons to process it for us, based on our instructions and in compliance with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.

Parental Access and Controls

You can access the videos your child has recently watched in the Watch it again section of the app. You can pause the collection of watch and search history or clear the watch and search history in the parental settings section of the app. When you create a profile for your child, you can pause and clear watch and search history for each child profile. While history is paused, the app will not use new video views or search terms to recommend content. When watch and search history are cleared, the app resets Recommended and Watch it again videos. Finally, you can always uninstall and reinstall the app on a device to reset the app-specific identifiers used to collect watch and search history, but if you have enabled profiles, watch and search history will remain linked to each profile until you specifically delete the history.

 

You can unlink your IntGen Account from a specific installation of the Ketabi app by following the prompts in the parental settings section of the app. You can also change or delete the parental controls and customization preferences that are associated with your IntGen account at any time by using the in-product tools we provide.

 

This notice describes our collection, use, and disclosure practices connected with your child's use of the Ketabi app when you sign in to it. We need your consent for IntGen to associate the data described above and in the Ketabi Privacy Notice collected from your child’s use of the app with information from your IntGen Account for the purposes set forth above. If you do not wish to sign in, you can go back, skip selecting an account and continue using the app in a signed out state. You may revoke your consent at any time by unlinking your IntGen account from the Ketabi app by following the prompts in the settings section of the app.

 

You can find additional information about the app in the Parental Guide. Our Disclosure for Children explains our data processing practices to your child, which we encourage you to review with them.

 

By entering your password, you consent to IntGen associating the data collected from your child's use of the app with information from your IntGen Account for the purposes set forth above. The Ketabi Privacy Notice explains how data is handled by the app.
