Privacy & safety
Jane is a kids' app, so it's built to keep things simple, private and predictable.
No AI talking to your kid
Nothing in the app calls an AI. Every question, hint and line Jane says was written ahead of time and checked before your kid could see it.
Data stays in your setup
Progress and answers are stored only where you run Jane: your Cloudflare account, or a folder or Docker volume on your own computer.
Never in the code repo
Kid data, backups, nightly exports, real quests, passwords and account IDs are all kept out of the public code. The project's rules forbid committing them.
The parent page has no passcode yet
Anyone who can reach your Jane can open
/parent. Don't put Jane on the open internet without some kind of access control.
What gets stored
- Your kid's first name or nickname, target age and grade (settings you choose; a nickname is fine).
- One progress record: which topics are learned, reviews, medals and quests.
- A log of each day's answers (and the words your kid looked up), and the quests your agent published.
That's it. Jane has no accounts, no ads and no tracking. This guide site has no trackers or cookies either.
Who sees what
- Your kid sees the app.
- You see the parent report.
- Your AI agent reads a nightly export of the progress to write the next quest, and keeps backups on its own computer. Pick an agent you trust with that, and it never needs to share the data anywhere else.
Reaching Jane safely
- On a home computer or Docker: by default only that computer can open Jane. To use it from a tablet, open it up to your home network only.
- On your agent's computer: it's usually not on your home network, so use a private connection (like a VPN or a private tunnel) rather than a public link.
- On Cloudflare: the address is public, so keep in mind the parent page has no passcode yet.
Safety nets
- Progress is backed up before every update and every nightly change.
- A finished quest can never be changed, and the parts of a quest your kid already reached stay as they were.
- A quest that breaks the teaching rules is rejected before it reaches your kid.
