Math Practice is published by Bees, Blooms & Bytes LLC.
Math Practice is a grade-based math flashcard and word-problem app for children, used by a parent or guardian who signs in and manages one or more student (child) profiles. It is an iPhone, iPad and Android app; it has no website version.
This app is intended to be used by a parent or guardian on behalf of their child. The account itself belongs to the adult who signs in — a child does not sign in or manage the account directly. Because it's designed for a parent to enter information about their child, it necessarily collects some information about children under 13; see below for exactly what.
sub claim: a code that identifies your account but is not your name or email). The app asks Apple for no name or email. Google's sign-in on your phone can hand the app your Google account's name and email, and the complete sign-in token, which can also contain them, is sent to our server so it can be verified. The app does not use or keep that name or email; our server checks the token, keeps only the identifier, discards the rest straight away, and never logs or stores it.Math questions, including word-problem stories, are made by the app itself from fixed templates in its own code; they are not written by AI. When a student gets an addition, subtraction, multiplication or division problem wrong, or taps "Show me how", the app's server may ask Anthropic's Claude API to put the app's own solution steps into friendlier words. For that it sends the math problem and its solution steps (which include the correct answer) and the grade level (for example "grade 3"). Claude only rewords the steps; it does not decide whether an answer is correct and does not make up the math, which our own code produces. The app shows Claude's wording only if it keeps the app's own numbers, their order, and the operation of each step, and states no equation the app's step does not have; otherwise it shows its own steps. These checks make a wrong explanation unlikely but cannot prove that every word is right; whether a child's answer is correct is always decided by the app's own code, never by Claude.
We do not send Anthropic your child's nickname or answer, or your account identifier. Stories carry a blank where the nickname goes and our server fills the nickname in afterwards, and any name is removed from the problem text before it is sent, so the child's name stays with us and on the device. Anthropic's own privacy policy governs how it handles the text it receives.
Help → Report a problem (Help opens only after the parent check) sends what you type (the description, any steps, and a contact detail if you choose to add one), the app version, and the device type to a small feedback service run by the developer on Cloudflare. It saves each report as an issue in the developer's issue tracker on GitHub. Please don't put your child's name or other personal details in a report. Your IP address is used only to limit spam, is kept for about two days, and is not included in the report. Reports are not removed when you delete your account; email us and we will delete one on request.
Each answer a student gives (whether it was right) is kept for 90 days. After that a scheduled job deletes the individual answers automatically, and only per-topic counts (how many problems were answered and how many were right) are kept, together with the animals the student has collected, so Progress and rewards keep working. The one exception is the most recent completed Skill Test, the one that set the student's current level: its answers and results are kept until a newer Skill Test replaces it, you remove the student, or you delete the account. A student's profile (nickname and grade) and the counts are kept until you remove the student or delete the account.
Math Practice has a 7-day free trial and a one-time purchase that unlocks it for good, both started or bought by a parent in the iPhone, iPad or Android app (the trial is a free in-app purchase on iPhone). Until a parent starts the trial, and after it ends, Math Practice is view-only: progress and rewards can still be seen. Starting the trial and buying are in Settings, which a parent confirms with Face ID, Touch ID or the device passcode, and the app asks the parent again immediately before the store opens. There is nothing to start or buy in the screens children use. To confirm a purchase and let you restore it on another device, we use RevenueCat (a purchase service). RevenueCat receives a random identifier made for your account (it is not your name, email or sign-in identifier), the store receipt and product of your purchase, and the technical information any app service receives, such as your device type, app version and IP address. It receives nothing about a child: no nickname, age, grade or practice. We store the date the trial started, whether your account has the full version, which store it came from, the store transaction reference, and when it was last confirmed, so that it follows your account to every device. We do not use purchase information for advertising. Deleting your account deletes these records here; the purchase itself stays with Apple or Google, and RevenueCat's own retention is described in its privacy policy (revenuecat.com/privacy).
We do not sell or share your data with advertisers or data brokers, and we do not use it for advertising or profiling.
Unlike a general-audience app, Math Practice is knowingly used to store information about children under 13 — a nickname and grade level, entered by a parent, and their practice history — because that's the app's actual purpose. The account holder is the parent, not the child, and the child does not sign in independently. We do not share a child's nickname with any third party. Before a student can be added or practise, a parent is shown a notice of what is kept, who sees it and how long, and confirms that they are the child's parent or guardian and agree; we record only the version of the notice and when they agreed.
If this policy changes in a way that affects what we collect, we'll update the "Last updated" date above.
