How Tinkertable handles your family’s information
Short version: a parent owns the account, kids use nicknames, we collect as little as we can, and we never sell anything.
Who this covers
Tinkertable is run by TAK2008, LLC, 5900 Balcones Drive #34755, Austin, TX 78731. You can reach us at support@tinkertable.ai. This notice covers the Tinkertable website and app during our beta.
What we collect
- Email address of the parent, or of a teen 13 or older who signs up themselves, used only to sign in and to reach you about your account.
- Profile nicknames and age group (for example, “Sam, ages 8 to 10”). We don’t ask for kids’ real names, birthdays, schools, photos or locations.
- Interests you pick (for example, “sports” or “animals”), and for grown-ups, the kind of work they do and what they want help with at home. Kids only choose from our list. We use these only to tailor lessons and ideas, never for ads, and you can change or clear them any time.
- What your family makes: your ideas, the answers you give the coach, and the apps and recipes you save.
- Usage records: which features you use and how much AI each family uses, so we can keep costs fair and fix problems.
- Feedback you choose to send us.
Kids and parental consent
A family account is created by a parent or legal guardian. Before any child profile is created, the parent confirms they are the child’s parent or guardian and agrees to this notice. Kids under 13 never give us an email address or password.
Parents can send a kid a one-time family link so the kid can use Tinkertable on their own device. That device is linked only to the kid’s own profile, can’t see anyone else’s, and can be removed by the parent at any time from the Family page.
Teens 13 and older may create their own account with their own email address. They confirm they are 13 or older when they sign up. Payment for a teen’s account is made by a parent or guardian.
How the AI works
When someone in your family uses the coach, what they type is sent to Anthropic, the company that makes the Claude AI models, so it can write a response. Under Anthropic’s commercial terms for its API, that data isn’t used to train its models. We also block phone numbers, email addresses, street addresses and passwords before anything reaches the AI.
What we never do
- We never sell or rent your information.
- We never show ads.
- We never let kids message strangers or make public profiles.
Who else handles your data
We use a few trusted services to run Tinkertable: Supabase (our database and sign-in), Netlify (hosting), Anthropic (the AI coach), Stripe (payments for the family plan; we never see or store card numbers) and Resend (sign-in links, reminders and replies to messages you send us).
Your choices
You can delete any saved app or recipe at any time in the app. To see, download or delete everything we hold about your family, email support@tinkertable.ai or use our contact form, and we’ll handle it within 30 days.
Messages you send us
If you use our contact form, we keep your name, email and message so we can reply and keep a record of your request.
Changes
We’ll update this notice as Tinkertable grows and tell parents by email about any important change.
