Privacy Policy

MIMO (TinyTalk AI) · Android
Package: com.malixora.tinytalk · Version 1.1.0

Last updated: 29 September 2026

The short version. MIMO has no ads, no analytics, no tracking, no third-party advertising SDKs, and we do not sell or share personal information. Everything your child creates stays on the device unless you deliberately turn on online AI chat. If online chat is off or unavailable, Mimo answers entirely from a knowledge base built into the app.

1. Who we are

MIMO (also published as “TinyTalk AI”) is a voice-first AI companion app for children, operated by an independent developer. This policy explains what the app collects, why, and what control you have.

2. Information this app collects

MIMO is designed so that the minimum possible data leaves the device. Here is the complete list of what the app touches.

2.1 Data stored only on your device

The following is saved in the app’s private storage (SharedPreferences). It is not uploaded anywhere, is not readable by other apps, and is deleted when you uninstall the app or use the in-app reset control.

Data	Why it is needed	Stored where
Optional child name or nickname	So Mimo can greet your child by name	On device only
Conversation history	To keep context in an ongoing chat	On device only
Topics and words the child shows interest in	To personalise suggestions	On device only
Stars, hearts, levels, streaks, gift and challenge progress	Rewards and game progression	On device only
Time-of-day and daily usage minutes	Enforces the parent-set daily time limit	On device only
Parent PIN	Protects the parents’ settings area from a child	On device only
Settings (language, voice pitch, dark mode, safe mode, daily limit)	App preferences	On device only
Child drawings from the Diary feature	Saved as PNG images so the child can revisit them	App-private documents folder on device

2.2 Microphone (voice input)

MIMO requests the RECORD_AUDIO permission so your child can speak to Mimo instead of typing. Speech recognition may be performed on the device by your phone’s built-in Android speech service.

Please note: how audio is processed during recognition is controlled by your device manufacturer and operating system, not by this app. Some Android keyboards and voice services may send audio to their own cloud service. If you prefer fully offline recognition, use a device with on-device speech recognition enabled, or avoid the microphone and type instead.

2.3 Internet access (optional online AI chat)

If a working AI provider key is included in the build, and you allow online chat, the child’s question text is sent to the configured AI provider so the assistant can reply. The app supports two providers:

Provider	What is sent	Why
OpenRouter (`openrouter.ai`)	Your child’s message text, plus a short fixed system prompt and a small set of general-knowledge facts	To generate a reply
Google Gemini (`generativelanguage.googleapis.com`)	Same as above	Used as a fallback provider when OpenRouter cannot answer

No personal profile is sent. The child’s name, age, precise location, photos, drawings, contact list, and device identifiers are never included in AI requests. Our own developers do not receive, log, or store the contents of your child’s conversations.

3. Permissions we request, and why

Permission	Purpose	Is it required?
`RECORD_AUDIO`	Voice input to talk to Mimo	Optional — typing works without it
`INTERNET`	Online AI chat and text-to-speech resources	Optional — the app runs offline without it

MIMO requests no camera, contacts, location, phone, calendar, or storage permissions.

4. What we do NOT do

No advertising or ad SDKs
No analytics, telemetry, or usage tracking SDKs
No crash-reporting or profiling services
No selling, renting, or sharing of personal information
No third-party behavioural advertising networks
No account creation, sign-in, or email collection
No background location tracking

5. Children’s privacy

MIMO is intended for children with the supervision of a parent or legal guardian. Because the app can generate open-ended conversational replies, we recommend the following, and we have built these safeguards in by default:

Safe Mode is on by default. It blocks requests relating to self-harm, weapons, violence, and adult content, and redirects the child to a parent. The filter understands English, Hindi, Hinglish, and Urdu phrasing.
Daily time limit. A parent sets a daily allowance; the app stops starting new conversations once it is reached.
Parents’ area is PIN protected. There is no default PIN — you create your own on first use, so a child cannot change these settings.
Parents’ test button. Inside the parents’ area you can verify whether online AI is actually responding, so you always know which mode your child is in.

A child of any age should use MIMO with a parent or guardian present, particularly when online AI chat is enabled. If your child asks Mimo something inappropriate despite these safeguards, please report it using the contact details in section 9.

6. How to delete your child’s data

You have three ways, from easiest to most complete:

Inside the app. Open the parents’ area, enter your PIN, and use the reset control. This clears conversation history, progress, stars, interests, and settings.
Delete individual drawings. In the Diary feature, open the drawing and use the delete button.
Uninstall the app. This removes all app data from the device permanently.

You can also request deletion of your Play Store account data at Google Play Developer Support.

7. Data retention

Because data is stored on your device, we do not hold a copy and have nothing to retain or delete. Data sent to an AI provider is processed during the request for a reply and is governed by that provider’s own OpenRouter privacy policy or Google privacy policy. We have disabled provider-side training requests where the API permits it, and we never store your child’s conversation content on any server we control.

8. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, export, or delete personal data, or to object to processing. Because we operate no account system and hold no server-side database, the practical way to exercise these rights is to reset or uninstall the app, which removes the data at its source. If you have questions, contact us using the details below.

10. Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top of this page. Material changes will be described here. Continuing to use the app after a change means the updated policy applies.
