AI Buddy is built for children, so safety is a first principle, not an afterthought. This page explains, in plain language, how we help keep young learners safe.
A child's account must be set up with a parent, guardian or school, and realtime voice and video lessons require parental consent before they can be used.
Accounts are private by default. There is no open chat with strangers. The tutor works one-to-one with the student on their schoolwork.
The tutor is designed to stay on learning and to steer gently back to the subject if a conversation drifts. It teaches with the student, encouraging effort rather than simply handing over answers.
No tool, including ours, is ever perfectly safe or perfectly accurate. AI can make mistakes, screen time still needs managing, and children benefit from adult involvement. We treat parental oversight as essential. Our short guide on whether AI tutoring is safe for children gives parents a practical checklist.
If you ever have a safety concern, contact us straight away at safety@aibuddyapps.co.uk and we will respond promptly. See also our privacy policy.
