SV Sleepy Voice — Privacy Policy

Update Date: December 3, 2025


Sleepy Voice ("we", "us", "our") is a family-first bedtime story app. We respect your privacy and aim to keep your family's stories and voices safe. This Privacy Policy explains what data Sleepy Voice handles, how it is used, and how you can manage or delete it.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Children’s Information (Local Storage & Data Minimization)

To personalize stories, parents may enter:

Data Minimization Guarantee: The app uses a Second Person Point of View ("You") for story generation. The child's real name is NEVER transmitted to our servers or third-party AI providers for story text or audio generation. This information is stored only on your device and is never uploaded to our servers unless you explicitly authorize a safe, anonymized cloud backup.

1.2 Voice Samples (Parent Voices Only)

Parents may optionally record a short voice sample to create a personalized storyteller voice.

1.3 Financial/Purchase Information

We do not directly collect or store payment details (such as credit card numbers). All purchases and subscriptions are processed securely by the third-party payment provider (e.g., Google Play Store or Apple App Store). We collect non-financial transaction data, such as:

This data is used solely for account management, restoring purchases, and app functionality.

1.4 Device and Technical IDs

Since Sleepy Voice does not require traditional login, we generate and use a unique, non-personal Device Identifier (Device ID) or a random User ID to:

This identifier is treated as an anonymous identifier and is not linked to any real-world identity unless explicitly provided by the user (e.g., via a support email).

1.5 Usage Data (Anonymous)

We may collect anonymous, non-identifying usage data such as app version, language, and aggregated counts (e.g., number of stories created) solely to improve the app. This data does not contain child or parent identifiers.


2. How We Use Information

We use local child profile data (Age Range, Interests) to:

Nothing that can identify your child is shared without your explicit consent.

3. Data Security

We prioritize on-device storage. Temporary files used for processing (like voice recordings) are deleted as soon as processing completes. If you choose to back up content to the cloud, we encrypt files in transit and can encrypt at rest. We never sell or rent your data.

Note: The generated voice model may be represented by a model ID or configuration used for playback. The raw voice sample (original recording) is deleted automatically.

4. Children’s Privacy & Compliance

Sleepy Voice is designed for family use under parental supervision. We follow COPPA (Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act) and similar regulations (such as GDPR-K). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 without parental consent. Any features that may involve voice or personal input require the parent to initiate them.

5. Third-Party Services

We use reputable third-party AI and audio providers (for example, Azure OpenAI Service or licensed TTS vendors) solely to perform one-time text generation and voice synthesis. Crucially, we ensure that these third parties never receive the child's name, nickname, or any other identifying information. They only receive the minimal, non-identifying story parameters (e.g., interests, age range) required for transient processing. We do not provide third parties with identifying child data.

6. Data Retention & Deletion

6.0 Server Data Minimization Policy

Sleepy Voice adheres to a policy of data minimization. Generated story audio files are not stored on our servers. All stories and audio content are stored locally on the user's device. Audio processing on our servers is purely transient; files are deleted immediately after synthesis or completion of the necessary API task. We do not store or retain any story text containing child names.

Data TypeStorage LocationRetention
Child profile (name, age, interests)Local deviceUntil user deletes profile or app
Generated stories (text)Local device (optional anonymized cloud backup)User-managed
Voice samples (raw recording)Temporary (local / API processing)Deleted immediately after cloning
Audio files (story narration)Local device onlyUser-managed (Not stored on our servers)
Usage logs (anonymous)Server (aggregated)Short-term for analytics
Device ID / Purchase StatusServer (encrypted)Until user requests deletion

6.1 User Data Deletion Request

You can request the deletion of your account data (including generated voice models and anonymous usage logs) at any time. Deletion can be initiated in two ways:

We will process all deletion requests within 30 days, in compliance with all relevant privacy regulations.

7. Contact

If you have questions or requests about this policy or your data (including deletion), contact us:

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Major updates will be announced within the app.


Summary: Sleepy Voice keeps your family’s stories and voices private — everything sensitive is local by default. No ads, no tracking, and crucially, the child's name is never sent to the server for story or audio generation. Your voice and your child’s imagination belong to you.
