MathQuest Privacy Policy

Last updated: 13 June 2026

MathQuest is a maths-practice app for Australian primary-school children, made by ChronoPredict. Because it is built for children, it is built to collect as little as possible. This page explains, in plain language, exactly what that means.

The short version

• MathQuest works with no account and no personal information at all. Used that way, your child's progress stays on your device only.
• You can choose to make a free family account so progress saves and syncs across devices. Then we store your email, and for each child a nickname, an avatar and their maths progress, on servers in Australia. No real names, no birthdays, no photos, no location. You can delete it all any time.
• There are no ads and no trackers. The app can send us anonymous usage statistics (never linked to your child, explained below), and a switch in the For grown-ups area turns that off in one tap.
• We never sell or share your or your child's data.

What is saved on your device (no account needed)

Used without an account, MathQuest saves a small amount of practice data in your browser's storage, on the device itself: the practice level reached in each skill; which levels have been mastered, and when; daily and weekly quest progress, streaks and achievements; and whether sound is on. This is numbers, dates and tick-boxes. Without an account, none of it is sent to us or to anyone.

Optional family accounts (only if you choose)

You never need an account. If you want your child's progress to save and sync across devices, an adult can make one in the For grown-ups area (behind a parental check). Before anything is stored, we show exactly what an account keeps and ask you to agree as the parent or guardian.

What an account stores

• You: your email address and sign-in, so the account is yours. You can sign in with Google or with an email and password.
• Each child profile: a nickname and an avatar you pick (a real name is not needed), their maths progress, and, only if you choose to add it, a year level to set a good starting point.

What an account never stores: birthdays, real full names, photos or uploaded images, your location, contacts, or anything your child types. We never show your child to anyone else.

Where it lives: on Google Firebase servers in Australia (australia-southeast1). We use Google Firebase Authentication to manage sign-in; Google acts as our processor for that. The data is encrypted in transit and is not shared with anyone or used for advertising.

Your rights as a parent: you can see, change or delete this at any time in the For grown-ups area. Deleting a profile erases that child's stored progress; deleting the account erases everything, your sign-in and every profile and all their progress. You can also email support@chronopredict.com to ask what is held or to ask us to delete it.

Kept separate: account data and the anonymous usage statistics below are kept strictly apart. Signing in never attaches your child's identity to the anonymous statistics; they stay anonymous.

The web-hosting part, honestly

MathQuest is a web app. When your device loads it or fetches an update, the request is handled by our hosting provider, Google's Firebase Hosting, exactly as happens when you open any website. That means Google's servers briefly see your device's IP address and standard technical details in routine server logs, which is how the internet delivers and secures content, and requests may be handled by servers outside Australia. We do not use those logs to identify anyone, and we run no analytics or advertising on them.

Anonymous usage statistics (you can turn this off)

To make MathQuest better at setting the right difficulty, and to catch technical problems, the app can send us a small set of anonymous usage statistics: things like how many questions were answered correctly at each level, which screens get used, the app version, and a code when something goes wrong.

Here is what keeps it anonymous:

• It is not linked to any account, name or your child. The statistics travel with a random id that only means "the same device as before", and that id is wiped if you use Reset progress. If you have an account, these statistics are still kept separate from it.
• The events are from a fixed list of numbers and codes. There is no free typing anywhere in the app, so nothing personal can ride along.
• The data goes only to our own systems in Australia, is never shared or sold, and is never used for advertising. Raw events are deleted within 90 days; we keep only overall statistics, like "level 4 subtraction is too hard for Year 3s".

You stay in control: in the For grown-ups area there is a switch called Share anonymous usage stats. Turn it off and the app stops sending anything, immediately.

No ads, no tracking, no selling

MathQuest contains no advertising, no third-party trackers, no social-media features and no in-app purchases. We do not sell, rent or share data with anyone. If that ever changes for a future feature, this policy will change first, with a new date at the top, before the feature ships.

This website

Our landing site follows the same rules as the app: no ads, no trackers and no analytics. One part of it is different, and it is opt-in: a box where parents and teachers can leave an email address to hear when MathQuest launches on Google Play, plus the odd big update. If you use it, your address is delivered to our inbox by a form service called Web3Forms, and we keep it in that inbox only. It is used for those updates and nothing else, never shared or sold, and removed the moment you ask: reply to any email we send, or write to support@chronopredict.com. The form is meant for grown-ups, not children.

Deleting your data

• No account (on-device): open For grown-ups (it asks an adult-level maths question) and choose Reset progress to wipe all saved practice data on the device. To remove everything, clear this site's data in your browser, or uninstall the app.
• With an account: in the For grown-ups area, delete a child profile to erase that child's stored progress, or delete the account to erase your sign-in and every profile and all their progress. You can also email support@chronopredict.com.

Children's privacy

MathQuest is designed for children, so child safety leads every decision: minimal data by design, no ads served to children, no dark patterns, a parental gate in front of anything meant for adults, and a clear parent-consent step before any child account data is stored. We work to the standards of the Australian Privacy Act and Google Play's Families policy.

Changes to this policy

If MathQuest ever changes what it stores or sends, we will update this page and the date at the top before the change goes live, and say plainly what changed.
