Your privacy, in plain language
Last updated September 22, 2026
The short version
- No account, no login, and no email required.
- No cookies, no analytics, and no third-party trackers.
- Your quiz answers stay on your device and are never sent to us.
What we collect
Nothing on our servers. Kids' Device Guide has no user accounts and no database of visitors. We do not ask for your name, email, phone number, or your child's information, and we have no way to receive them.
When you take the quiz, your answers are saved only in your own browser, using a feature called session storage. That data lives on your device so the results page can read it, and it is cleared automatically when you close the browser tab. It is never transmitted to us or anyone else.
The optional first name
The quiz lets you add your child's first name so the printable family agreement can be personalized. This is entirely optional. Like every other answer, it stays in your browser on your device, is used only to fill in the agreement you print, and is never sent to us or placed in any web address.
Cookies and analytics
We do not use cookies, web beacons, fingerprinting, or analytics services. We do not build advertising profiles and we do not track you across other sites. There is no third-party tag on these pages collecting your behavior.
Links to other sites
Our recommendations link out to device makers, carriers, and the official sources we cite. Once you follow a link, you are on that company's website, which has its own privacy practices we do not control. Outbound links use rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer", so we do not pass along any information about you.
Affiliate disclosure: some outbound links may be affiliate links, which means we could earn a commission if you buy something. This never changes your price and never influences our scoring. The matching engine is deterministic and source-agnostic.
Children's privacy
This site is designed for parents and guardians, not for children. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from anyone, including children under 13. The optional first name is entered by a parent, stays on the parent's device, and is never collected by us, consistent with the spirit of the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
Changes to this policy
If we ever change how the site handles data, for example by adding a feature that needs a server, we will update this page and its "last updated" date before that feature goes live. Our intent is to stay tracker-free and account-free.
A note on scope
This page describes our practices in plain language and is not legal advice. Device details on this site are focused on the United States market and are provided for general guidance; always confirm current pricing and features with each provider.
