There are basically 2 sides:
- Can kids consent to letting their parents know where they are
- Is the system secure enough to unauthorized access
We're very serious about getting both right!
- dman 16y agoHow do you handle the following edge cases 1) a kid using the product grows over 18 while the product is still installed on their phone? 2) Does a person being monitored get some visual feedback about the fact that theyre being tracked ?
- mickdj 16y ago1) It's really up to the families - if they are ok with sharing location data then they can keep it running. It seems like this would be most useful when the kids are 12 to 14 years old. We have very plans for products that extend up and down the age range, but this isn't it. 2) All parties on the system get the same visibility; you can see your own history and your parent's history in the same way that they can see yours. We've really tried hard to make the app useful to both parents and kids.
- dman 16y agoCool! It looks like youve put in a lot of thought about the privacy and social issues - which is always a good sign for someone doing a privacy related startup.
