Child Safety Standards
Effective Date: March 22, 2025
Plunge (“Plunge App”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) is committed to maintaining a safe and secure environment for all users, including children. We take child protection seriously and comply fully with Google Play’s Developer Policy Center requirements, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and all applicable local laws governing data privacy and child safety.
This policy outlines the standards and procedures we follow to ensure the safety and well-being of children on our platform.
App Audience Declaration
Plunge is not designed for use by children under the age of 13 although it is available to children under the age of 13. We have declared our target audience and content appropriately in the Google Play Console and restricted access to age-appropriate users.
If future features are developed that are appropriate for children, we will update our app classification, declare relevant audience groups, and implement appropriate content filtering and parental control options.
Age Screening
We do not implement a age gate at the point of registration as the app is designed for everyone and includes nothing that would be inappropriate for users under the age of 13.
Data Collection and Privacy
We do not knowingly collect, use, or disclose personal information from users under the age of 13 without verifiable parental consent. Our Privacy Policy clearly outlines:
The types of data collected
How the data is used
With whom the data is shared (if applicable)
User rights and data deletion mechanisms
We provide a contact method for parents to inquire or request deletion of their child’s information. Please use the form below to submit a report.
Content Standards
Plunge does not include content that is inappropriate for children, such as:
Sexually explicit or suggestive content
Violence or violent behavior
Profanity or vulgar language
Drug, alcohol, or tobacco-related messaging
Harassment, bullying, or hate speech
All user-generated content (UGC), if applicable, is subject to moderation filters and community guidelines enforcement.
Advertising and Monetization
Any advertising within Plunge adheres to age-appropriate ad standards. We use only Google Play-certified ad SDKs and ensure that ads targeted to users (where allowed) are contextual, not interest-based when user data collection is limited or restricted due to age.
Parental Controls & Support
While Plunge is not currently designed for children, we support parental involvement and offer clear instructions for supervising access via device-level parental controls.
For inquiries or concerns related to child safety, parents and guardians can contact us via the form below.
Ongoing Review
This policy is reviewed annually and updated as needed to reflect regulatory changes, feedback from users, and shifts in platform usage.
