Click Confident Phonics. Last updated 20 October 2026.

Click Confident Phonics is a reading app for children in Grades 1 to 3, used with a parent, carer or teacher. We built it to collect nothing.

What we collect

Nothing. The app has no accounts, no sign-in, no advertising, no analytics and no tracking. We do not receive, store or share any information about you or your child.

What stays on your device

The first names or nicknames you type for each reader, their chosen buddy picture, lesson stars, practice minutes and scores (reading accuracy, spelling and words correct per minute) are saved only on your device, inside the app. They are never sent to us or to anyone else. Deleting the app, or removing a reader in the Grown-up corner, deletes this information.

Backup codes

In the Grown-up corner you can create a backup code to move a reader’s progress to another device. The code is created on your device and contains only that reader’s name, buddy picture and stars. It is only shared if you choose to copy and send it somewhere yourself.

“Hear the word”

This button uses your device’s built-in voice to say a word aloud. The speaking happens on your device; the app does not send any recordings or audio anywhere, and it never uses the microphone.

Children

The app is designed so that no personal information about children leaves the device, in line with the aims of South Africa’s Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) and the US Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Settings and backups sit in a Grown-up corner that opens only after a sum is answered.

Third parties

The app contains no third-party code, adverts or links to other websites or apps. If you choose the Andika, Atkinson Hyperlegible or Lexend font in Reading settings, that font is downloaded once from Google Fonts, which receives your device’s internet address like any website download. The default font needs no download.

Changes

If this policy ever changes, the new version will be posted here with a new date.
