Montessori Daily · Effective date: October 11, 2026 · Last updated: October 11, 2026
Montessori Daily (the app) is published by Emir KIZILIRMAK (md9.net), who is the data controller under Turkey’s Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 (KVKK), the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK GDPR. Contact: destek@md9.net
The app is made for parents and other adults who care for children aged 1 to 7. It is meant to be used by an adult, not by a child on their own. The details you enter about your child stay on your device (see section 4).
The app asks for notification permission only when you turn on the daily reminder and, on iPhone, for tracking permission (App Tracking Transparency) for personalized ads. Both are optional; the app works the same if you say no.
None of this is sent to us or to anyone else. If backups are turned on, it may be included in your phone’s own iCloud or Google backup. Removing a child (Settings › Children, tap the child, Remove child) deletes that child’s profile and activity history. Deleting the app deletes all of it.
Activities, routines and guides are built into the app and work offline. The app does not use a server of ours.
Reminders are local notifications scheduled on your device by the app itself. No push token is created and nothing is sent to a server. You can turn them off in Settings › Daily reminder or in your phone’s notification settings.
| Service | Data processed | Purpose | Retention | Can it be turned off? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Firebase Analytics | Usage events (for example screens opened, an activity opened or completed, with the activity, area, age group and free or Premium plan), app instance ID, device model, operating system version and language, approximate location derived from the IP address (country/city) | Understanding how the app is used and improving it | At most 14 months | Yes: Settings › Privacy › Share anonymous usage data (on by default) |
| Firebase Crashlytics | Crash diagnostics (stack trace, device model, operating system and app version), Crashlytics installation ID | Finding and fixing bugs | 90 days | Yes: the same switch |
| Firebase Remote Config | Firebase installation ID, app version, platform and language | Adjusting settings such as the number of daily activities and how often ads appear, without an app update | Google’s standard retention | No; the app needs it to work as intended |
Firebase never receives your child’s name or date of birth. Google processes this data on our behalf as a processor. See Firebase privacy and security.
If you do not have Premium, the app shows ads from Google AdMob: a banner, ads between items in lists and, never in the first 7 days after you install the app, at most one full-screen ad a day when you leave an activity or a guide.
Google acts as an independent controller for this data. See How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and the Google Privacy Policy.
Premium is bought through the App Store or Google Play, and Apple or Google processes the payment; we never see your card details, Apple ID or Google account. We use RevenueCat to check whether Premium is active and to restore it. RevenueCat receives an anonymous app user ID created on your device, purchase and subscription details from the store (product, price, purchase and renewal dates, country) and basic device information. It does not receive your name or email address. See the RevenueCat privacy policy.
| Processing | GDPR / UK GDPR | KVKK |
|---|---|---|
| Usage statistics, crash reports, remote settings and non-personalized ads | Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)) | Art. 5(2)(f) |
| Personalized ads, use of the advertising identifier | Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)); you can withdraw it at any time | Explicit consent, Art. 5(1) |
| Premium purchase, verification and restore | Performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)) | Art. 5(2)(c) |
Our legitimate interests are understanding how the app is used, fixing bugs and offering the app free of charge with ads. You can object at any time; turning off Share anonymous usage data is enough. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place before.
Google and RevenueCat may process data in the United States and other countries. They rely on safeguards such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, the UK International Data Transfer Addendum and, where applicable, the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. For KVKK purposes, transfers abroad take place under Article 9 of KVKK.
| Data | Period |
|---|---|
| Data on your device | Until you remove the child profile or delete the app |
| Firebase Analytics events | At most 14 months |
| Crashlytics crash reports | 90 days |
| Advertising data | Under Google’s retention policies |
| Purchase records (RevenueCat) | As long as needed to verify and restore Premium and to meet legal obligations |
Depending on where you live, you can ask for access to, correction or deletion of your personal data, restrict or object to processing, ask for data portability and withdraw consent at any time (GDPR Articles 15–22, KVKK Article 11). Because there is no account, most of your data is on your device and under your control, and we cannot identify you by name. For ads or purchases you can also contact Google or RevenueCat directly. Email destek@md9.net and we will reply free of charge within 30 days.
You can complain to your local data protection authority, for example in the EU, to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk) or to Turkey’s Personal Data Protection Authority (kvkk.gov.tr).
Montessori Daily is an app for parents and caregivers. It is not directed at children, and children should not use it on their own. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. The name and date of birth you enter for your child are stored only on your device and are never sent to us, Google or RevenueCat. If you believe we have received personal data from a child, email destek@md9.net and we will delete it. You can limit purchases with Screen Time on iPhone and Family Link on Android.
If we change this policy, we will update this page and the “Last updated” date. Significant changes will also be shown in the app.
