Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 13, 2026. Effective the same day.

What changed: our legal entity and postal address, a complete list of what we collect, how we handle health information, every provider we use, how long we keep data, what deletion removes, and an opt-in cookie model. Health information now has its own Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy.

1. Who we are

The Dad Center is operated by AMGINSIGHTS LLC, a California limited liability company doing business as The Dad Center ("we," "us," or "our"). We decide how and why your personal information is used, which makes us the data controller.

AMGINSIGHTS LLC
3249 Accelerator Avenue #1005, Fremont, CA 94538, USA
info@thedadcenter.com

This policy covers thedadcenter.com, our iOS and Android apps, and the emails and notifications we send (together, the "Service"). If you live in Washington, Nevada or another state with a consumer health data law, our Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy also applies.

2. Information we collect

We collect only what the Service needs. Rows marked health are consumer health data and are covered by section 3.

CategoryWhat it includesWhere it comes from
AccountName, email address, how you sign in (email, Google or Apple), the profile photo from that provider if you chose one, your role (dad, mom or other), timezone, when you created and last used your account, and when you confirmed you are 18 or older and accepted the Terms of Service and this policy.You, or Google or Apple when you sign in with them.

BillingStripe customer and subscription ids, RevenueCat ids, your plan and its status. We never see your card number.Stripe, RevenueCat, Apple and Google.
ConsentThe time you agreed to our collection of health information.You, with a checkbox when you create or join a family during onboarding on the web and in app versions 1.1.2 and later, or, for accounts created before October 12, 2026 and for older app versions, the first time you open a current version of the app after that date.

3. Health and pregnancy information

Your due date, pregnancy stage and week, your baby's birth date, tracker logs, mood check-ins and dad-profile answers are consumer health data. We treat them with extra care:

  • We ask first. Before collecting this information we ask for your explicit consent with a checkbox when you create or join a family during onboarding on the web and in app versions 1.1.2 and later, or, for accounts created before October 12, 2026 and for older app versions, the first time you open a current version of the app after that date. We store the time you agreed.
  • We use it only to run the Service: your week-by-week briefings, tasks for your stage, the tracker, and sharing with your partner.
  • Never for advertising. We do not use it for advertising, we do not sell it, and we do not send it to advertising platforms.
  • Some of it is private to you. Mood check-ins and dad-profile answers are visible only to the person who entered them. Your partner cannot see them.
  • You can withdraw consent at any time by stopping use of the health features and deleting the information, or by deleting your account.

This information is not a medical record, and the tracker is for your own record-keeping, not medical monitoring. Our Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy has the full statement required by Washington, Nevada and similar laws.

4. Information about your child

You may enter your baby's name, due or birth date, and day-to-day logs (feeding, sleep, diapers, temperature, medication, milestones). You provide this as the child's parent or guardian. We use it only to run the tracker and personalize content for your family, we never use it for advertising, and it is deleted with your family's account.

5. How we use information

  • To run the Service: briefings, tasks, tracker, checklists, budget and challenges, personalized to your pregnancy or parenting stage
  • To share family data between you and your partner
  • To manage your subscription and billing
  • To send the push notifications and emails you have turned on
  • To answer feedback and support messages
  • To understand how the Service is used, through first-party usage events and, only if you accept, Google Analytics on our public marketing pages
  • To credit the campaign that brought you here when you sign up
  • To keep the Service secure and prevent abuse
  • To meet our legal obligations

We do not make decisions about you with legal or similarly significant effects by automated means.

6. Family sharing

One account creates a family and invites a partner. Everyone in the family sees the shared family data: due date and baby details, tasks, budget, checklists and tracker logs. Your partner also sees your name. Mood check-ins and dad-profile answers are private to the person who entered them.

Shared data stays with the family. If you leave or delete your account while your partner remains, the family and its shared data stay with them. Our Terms of Service explain family ownership.

7. Who we share information with

We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We share it with providers that process it for us under contract, for the purposes below.

Google and Apple sign-inAuthentication, when you choose itThey send us your name, email and photoUSA

Engineering and support tools

We may use AI-assisted engineering tools, operated under confidentiality terms, to maintain the Service. Their access is limited to aggregate or de-identified data, and such tools are not trained on your data.

Legal and business disclosures

We may disclose information if required by law or court order, or to protect the rights and safety of our users and the public. If the business is sold or merged, personal information may pass to the new owner under this policy; we will tell you by email before that happens.

8. Cookies and analytics

Strictly necessary (always on)

Your sign-in session, your cookie choice, and a session-only first-party cookie that holds campaign parameters (utm, gclid, fbclid) from the link you arrived on, so we can credit that campaign if you sign up. Local storage keeps your preferences. None of these are used for advertising.

Analytics (only if you accept)

Google Analytics 4, loaded through Google Tag Manager, runs only after you click "Accept analytics" in our cookie banner, and only on our public marketing pages. It never runs on signed-in app screens. We use Google Consent Mode with all advertising storage and personalization denied. If your browser sends the Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a decline. "Cookie settings" in the footer reopens the choice at any time.

No advertising cookies

We do not use advertising cookies or pixels. There is no Meta Pixel, no Pinterest tag and no ad-network retargeting on the Service.

9. Email and push notifications

We send account, billing and security emails as needed to run your account. Onboarding tips and re-engagement emails are on by default when you create an account. Turn them off with the email toggles in Settings → Notifications (lifecycle and re-engagement emails) or with the unsubscribe link in any such email. Weekly briefing and milestone emails have their own toggles there.

Push notifications need your device's permission and can be turned off in Settings → Notifications or in your device settings. We do not currently send a newsletter. If we start one, every email will include an unsubscribe link, and you can ask us to remove your address at any time.

10. How long we keep information

InformationKept for
Account, family, health and progress dataUntil you delete your account
Usage events and page analytics180 days
Notification history180 days
Notification delivery logs90 days
Payment webhook records365 days
Error reports at Sentry90 days (Sentry's retention)
Newsletter sign-upUntil you delete your account or ask us to remove it
Deletion record (a minimal record of the deletion: platform, sign-in method, role, stage, signup month, days active, tasks completed, the day of the deletion and whether it was requested on the web or in the app, with no name, email or ids)Kept after deletion; it cannot be linked to you

11. Deleting your account

Delete your account from Settings → Profile → Delete Account on the web, from More → Settings in the app, or by emailing info@thedadcenter.com from the address on your account. Step-by-step instructions are on our account deletion page.

Deletion:

  • Removes your profile and sign-in identity, the family data you own, tracker logs, mood check-ins, dad profile, tasks, budget, device tokens, feedback and newsletter entries
  • Cancels your web subscription billed through Stripe and deletes your Stripe customer record and RevenueCat subscriber. Subscriptions bought through the App Store or Google Play are billed by Apple or Google, so cancel them in your store account
  • Passes ownership of your family to your partner if you have one, so shared family data stays with them
  • Keeps a minimal record of the deletion (platform, sign-in method, role, stage, signup month, days active, tasks completed, the day of the deletion and whether it was requested on the web or in the app, with no name, email or ids)

We delete your data from our own systems within 30 days. Copies held by our service providers are deleted or expire under their retention schedules: Stripe and RevenueCat subscriber records are deleted when you delete your account; error-monitoring events expire within 90 days; email delivery logs expire within 90 days; push tokens are deleted immediately. Stripe, Apple and Google keep transaction records as required by law.

12. Your rights

For everyone

  • Access and correct your information in Settings → Profile
  • Export your data on the web at Settings → Profile → Download my data (the mobile app links you there)
  • Delete your account as described in section 11
  • Withdraw consent to health information by stopping use of the health features and deleting the information, or by deleting your account
  • Opt out of marketing email in Settings → Notifications or with the unsubscribe link

To make a request you cannot complete in Settings, email info@thedadcenter.com from the address on your account. We answer within 45 days; if we need more time we may extend once by a further 45 days and will tell you why. There is no fee. If we decline a request, you can appeal by replying to our response within 30 days, and we will answer the appeal in writing with our reasons.

Washington, Nevada and other consumer health data laws

You can confirm whether we collect your consumer health data, ask for a list of the third parties we have shared it with, withdraw consent, and have it deleted, including from our processors. Details and the appeal process are in our Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy. You may also complain to your state Attorney General.

California

We do not sell or share personal information, and we honor the Global Privacy Control signal. You can ask what we collect, have it corrected or deleted, and limit the use of sensitive information (we already use it only to run the Service). We will not treat you differently for exercising these rights.

European Union and United Kingdom

Controller: AMGINSIGHTS LLC, 3249 Accelerator Avenue #1005, Fremont, CA 94538, USA, info@thedadcenter.com.

Legal bases: performance of our contract with you for your account, briefings, tasks and billing; your explicit consent (Article 9(2)(a)) for health and pregnancy information; your consent for analytics cookies; and our legitimate interests in securing the Service, preventing fraud and understanding use through first-party analytics.

Your rights: access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection; withdrawing consent at any time, which does not affect earlier processing; and lodging a complaint with your supervisory authority (in the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office). We are based in the United States and have not appointed an EU or UK representative. Contact us directly.

13. International transfers

We are located in the United States and our providers process data there. For users in the EU and UK, transfers to our processors rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or on the processor's certification under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and its UK Extension.

14. Security and breach notification

We encrypt data in transit (TLS) and at rest, use row-level access controls so each family only sees its own data, limit keys to the least privilege they need, and review our security periodically. Encrypted database backups are kept by our hosting provider for a limited period (no more than 30 days) solely for disaster recovery and are not used for any other purpose. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot promise absolute security.

If we learn of a security breach affecting your personal or health information, we will notify affected users and regulators without undue delay and as required by applicable law, including the FTC Health Breach Notification Rule and state breach-notification laws.

15. Children

The Service is for adults aged 18 and over. Parents enter information about their own children, as described in section 4. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If a child has created an account, contact us and we will delete it.

16. Changes to this policy

We will post changes on this page and update the date at the top. For material changes that reduce your rights or expand how we use your information, we will notify you by email or in the app at least 30 days before they take effect. Changes that add protections, correct errors or are required by law may take effect when posted.
