Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 2026

Welcome to FunAbacus.com (“FunAbacus”, “we”, “our”, or “us”). We respect your privacy and are committed to a safe, educational, and family-friendly online environment. This Privacy Policy explains in detail how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website. It also outlines your privacy rights under global frameworks such as GDPR (Europe), CCPA/CPRA (California), and COPPA (U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act).

Parents, guardians, and educators are encouraged to carefully review this policy so that children can explore FunAbacus with confidence.

1. Introduction and Scope

FunAbacus is designed to make abacus learning enjoyable for children and accessible for educators and parents. Unlike many online learning platforms, we do not require student accounts, logins, or personal profiles. Our services are delivered openly, without hidden tracking or unsafe advertising.

This Privacy Policy applies to all visitors of FunAbacus.com, regardless of location. By using the site, you agree to the terms outlined here. If you disagree, you may restrict cookies, opt out of optional services, or discontinue use.

2. Information We Collect

a) Non-Personal/Usage Information

Automatically collected through analytics tools, server logs, or cookies: Browser type (e.g., Chrome, Safari); device type (desktop, tablet, phone); operating system (Windows, macOS, Android, iOS); language settings; approximate geographic location (city/country, not precise GPS); pages viewed and time on page; referral/UTM parameters.

Example: We may see that “150 visitors from India viewed the Multiplication page in February.” This information is aggregate and cannot identify a specific child.

b) Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on a device. We use: necessary cookies (language/theme, security, core features), analytics cookies (to understand site usage, only with consent), and advertising cookies (via Google AdSense) to deliver family-safe ads. Cookies do not contain personal names, addresses, or student IDs.

c) Voluntary Information

If you contact us (e.g., at support@funabacus.com), we may collect your name, email address, and message content. We use this solely to respond and do not share it for marketing.

3. How We Use Information

  • Improve lessons & website: identify which pages are popular and resolve usability issues.
  • Ensure site security: detect abnormal traffic or misuse.
  • Advertising: serve family-safe ads with Google AdSense. Ads are non-personalised unless you allow advertising cookies.
  • Communication: respond to inquiries from parents/teachers.

We never use data to build personal profiles of children.

4. Google Services and Third Parties

We use Google AdSense to display family-safe ads that keep FunAbacus free. The AdSense script loads on every page and uses Google Consent Mode: until you allow advertising cookies, Google serves non-personalised ads only. Visitors in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland are asked for consent through a Google-certified consent message before any advertising cookies are used. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on prior visits to this and other websites when personalised ads are allowed. Google Analytics, if enabled, loads only after you accept analytics cookies.

You can opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ad Settings, learn how Google uses data at How Google uses information from sites that use its services, and change your choice on FunAbacus at any time with the “Cookie Preferences” link in the footer.

5. Children’s Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

  • No logins, sign-ups, or accounts are required.
  • We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13.
  • If a child contacts us directly, we request a parent/teacher to send the query instead.
  • If you believe a child’s data was shared with us, contact us for prompt deletion.

6. Data Retention

  • Cookies: session or persistent (typically up to 12 months, depending on type/provider).
  • Analytics: anonymized/aggregated with retention commonly up to 14 months.
  • Email correspondence: retained only as long as needed to address the inquiry.

7. Data Sharing and Transfers

We do not sell or rent information. Limited sharing occurs with trusted providers (e.g., Google) strictly for analytics and advertising as described. Data may be processed on servers outside your country. For EU/UK transfers, we rely on appropriate safeguards when applicable.

8. Legal Bases for Processing (GDPR)

  • Consent: analytics and advertising cookies.
  • Legitimate interests: core website functionality, security, and basic preferences.
  • Legal obligation: compliance with applicable laws and lawful requests.

9. Your Rights

GDPR (EEA/UK) Rights

  • Access, correct, or delete your data (where applicable).
  • Restrict or object to processing; data portability; withdraw consent.

CCPA/CPRA (California) Rights

  • Right to know categories of personal information collected.
  • Right to request deletion of certain information.
  • Right to opt out of “sale” (we do not sell personal information).
  • Right to non-discrimination for exercising your rights.

For all users, you can manage cookie preferences at any time via our consent banner or “Cookie Preferences” link.

Our lessons may link to external educational resources. Their privacy practices are their own—please review their policies before sharing any information.

11. Parents’ and Teachers’ Role

  • Explore lessons together with children and model safe browsing.
  • Report any inappropriate ads; we will address issues promptly with Google.
