What data does Poio store?
Poio attempts to limit stored personal data to a minimum. As of now, we store e-mail addresses, the player's first name and the player’s birth year, in addition to data needed to remember and track the player’s progression in the game.
What is my data used for?
When you initially register for Poio, we will ask you for specific permission for each of the processes that are based on permission. For the processes that are based on permission, granting permission will of course be voluntary, and permission can be withdrawn at any time by contacting Poio at privacy@poio.com, or by going to the parent menu in the game (available from the cog icon under the map after registration).
Processes that are based on permission:
Personal follow-up with reports and tips, so that you can follow your child's progress in the game.
Newsletter, in case you are interested in future Poio products.
Cloud storage, so you can play across many different devices. (Coming soon)
Game improvements, so that we can improve the game and boost the learning effect for your child.
