1. Our Promise to You
At Bambaverse, protecting your data, especially that of children, is not just a legal requirement; it’s a cornerstone of our mission. Whether remixing beats, building bots, or exploring African folktales in AR, every interaction is designed with privacy, transparency, and creativity in mind.
2. Children Come First
We follow a privacy-by-design approach, guided by both the Kenya Data Protection Act (DPA) and global standards like COPPA:
Minimum data collection – We only ask for what’s essential to enable learning.
No ads or profiling – Children are never targeted for advertising or behaviorally tracked.
No selling or renting of personal data.
AI safe zones – Our AI tools are sandboxed, age-appropriate, and don’t store identifiable information.
Guardian involvement – Parents and educators are informed and in control.
3. What We Collect (and Why)
We never collect facial recognition, school IDs, biometric data, or real-time GPS locations.
4. Consent, Access & Control
Verified consent is required before collecting or using a child’s data.
Guardian dashboards allow full visibility into what children are creating and accessing.
Opt-in only for newsletters or research participation.
Data rights: You can view, correct, delete, or export data at any time.
To request access or removal: info@bambaverse.com
