02
Intended adult-facilitator audience
The app is designed for adult youth facilitators, caregivers, guardians, and authorized volunteers who prepare supervised small-group activities. It is not designed for independent use by children.
03
App purpose
CircleLab supplies original educational activity guides, a deterministic five-beat workshop builder, prepared conversation prompts, anonymous visual selections, general inclusion reminders, and source references.
04
Data not collected
The app does not collect or transmit names, email addresses, phone numbers, birth dates, schools, photos, audio, contacts, precise or approximate location, device identifiers, advertising identifiers, health information, financial information, messages, usage analytics, crash telemetry, or diagnostic logs.
05
On-device preferences and session state
The app may save Reduce Motion, large-text choice, anonymous mosaic cell numbers, locally reviewed activity IDs, and the current builder selections. These records stay in the app’s private storage on the device.
06
No youth records or free-text notes
CircleLab has no youth profile, attendance, behavior, case-management, incident, diagnosis, or free-text note feature. Facilitators must not use anonymous controls to encode a person’s identity.
07
Permissions
The app requests no Internet, camera, microphone, location, Bluetooth, notification, contacts, calendar, SMS, call log, health, or shared-storage permission. Android may add an internal signature-protected component permission that is not a user-data permission.
08
No account
There is no registration, login, password, profile, cloud account, or identity verification inside the app.
09
No ads, analytics, tracking, or third-party SDKs
CircleLab contains no advertising, analytics, attribution, social, telemetry, crash-reporting, remote-configuration, or network software development kit. It does not track users across apps or websites.
10
No sharing or sale
Because the app does not collect or transmit personal data, it does not sell, rent, disclose, or share personal data with the organization, advertisers, data brokers, analytics providers, or other third parties.
11
External source links
The Source Shelf displays citation URLs as plain reference text. The app has no Internet permission and does not open or monitor those destinations. If a user visits a source separately, that site’s privacy terms apply.
12
Retention and deletion
Device-only preferences remain until the user clears them in Studio Settings, clears Android app storage, or uninstalls the app. Clear all local data removes CircleLab’s saved preferences and anonymous state.
13
Backup and device-transfer behavior
Android backup and device-transfer are disabled for CircleLab. The app does not provide cloud sync or restore. Platform or device behavior outside the app remains subject to the user’s device provider.
14
Security limits
Data is limited to private on-device preferences and protected by Android application sandboxing. No software or device can be guaranteed completely secure; users should maintain device access controls and current system updates.
15
Children and safeguarding
The app does not knowingly collect children’s personal information and should be operated by adults in an appropriately supervised setting. It does not provide chat, profiles, direct adult-minor messaging, public sharing, or youth records. Safeguarding concerns belong in the setting’s authorized process.
16
General-wellness limitation
Optional Reset Corner pauses are general educational ideas, not therapy, counseling, diagnosis, treatment, crisis support, or medical advice. For urgent safety or health concerns, involve a trusted adult and appropriate local emergency services outside the app.
17
Policy changes and user choices
Material changes will be reflected in an updated policy with a new effective date. Users may stop using the app and delete local data at any time. A future feature that changes data practices requires a matching app, listing, Data Safety, and policy update before release.
18
Privacy contact
Written privacy questions may be directed to: BRIGHTSIDE YOUTH ORGANIZATION, 1935 W 4700 S STE 132, TAYLORSVILLE, UT 84129, United States. Do not send sensitive youth, health, safety, or incident details through ordinary correspondence.
