Service Providers & Third-Party Services
A plain-language overview of the infrastructure and optional external services that help Kindos operate.
What this page is for
Kindos uses infrastructure and third-party services to operate the app and website and may offer optional connections chosen by families. The exact services involved depend on the feature, platform and permissions a family enables.
A provider listed here does not automatically receive every category of Kindos information.
| Provider or service category | Purpose | Information that may be involved |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase | App database, authentication and backend infrastructure used by Kindos. | Account, family, feature and security data needed for enabled app functions. |
| Google / Firebase | App infrastructure such as notifications, diagnostics or other platform services where enabled. | Device/app identifiers, notification tokens, diagnostic or account-related information as applicable. |
| OpenAI | AI-assisted functionality such as Tutor AI, Ask Kindos or Vision-related processing where enabled. | Prompts, images, audio/text or contextual information reasonably needed to answer the user’s request. |
| Google APIs and user-authorized Google services | Optional services such as Classroom, Calendar, Maps or Places when the family chooses to connect or use them. | Only information made available through the permissions and feature the user enables. |
| Google Analytics | Limited website traffic and performance measurement on getkindos.com. | Website usage, browser/device and approximate traffic information; not private in-app family messages. |
| Website/app hosting and platform providers | Host and deliver Kindos websites, app builds and related infrastructure. | Technical logs, request information and content necessary to provide the hosted service. |
| Apple App Store / Google Play | App distribution, updates and platform-level services. | Information processed by the app store under the user’s platform account and the store’s own terms. |
Optional external services
Some features may open or connect to independent services such as map/navigation providers, school platforms, shopping partners or other websites. When a user leaves Kindos or directly interacts with an independent third party, that provider’s privacy policy and terms apply.
Children’s information
When a service provider processes children’s personal information for Kindos, Kindos expects the information to be limited to what is reasonably necessary for the service and protected consistent with applicable privacy and security obligations. Kindos does not authorize service providers to use children’s personal information for targeted advertising on Kindos’s behalf.
Changes
This page may change as Kindos adds, removes or replaces infrastructure and integrations. Material privacy changes will also be reflected in the Privacy Policy where appropriate.
Beta transparency
Kindos is still in beta. Before broad public launch, this list should be checked against the production dependency inventory and vendor contracts so it reflects the services actually receiving personal information.
