Computer software for families
Purchase privacy
Published November 12, 2026. Version 2026-11-12.
Purchases and purchase accounts are not open. This notice explains the planned purchase flow. Our website privacy notice describes the website and adult update emails operating today. We will update this notice for the actual commerce services before opening checkout.
Who is responsible
Discovery Desk is a product of Curated Daily, LLC. Contact privacy@discoverydesk.org about your information, or contact@discoverydesk.org for general questions.
The website today
OpenAI's ChatGPT Sites and Cloudflare deliver and protect this site and process technical requests, including IP addresses, headers and security signals. Cloudflare may set a short-lived security cookie. Brevo operates the adult updates form, email confirmation, mailing list and unsubscribe process. Cloudflare Web Analytics measures the informational pages described in our website notice. These pricing and purchase-policy pages do not load that analytics script or a checkout SDK and do not create purchase accounts.
The website notice explains current providers, email reporting, retention and privacy choices. You can unsubscribe from updates. Signing up for updates does not reserve software, create a child account or authorize charges.
Planned adult purchase information
When checkout opens, the adult purchase flow is intended to use an adult email, selected edition and version, order reference, amount and currency, tax and payment status, accepted terms and purchase entitlement. It will also need records of included benefits, usable delivery, refunds, recovery and security events. The payment provider may need a purchaser name, billing address and tax information.
We plan to use Paddle as the authorized reseller and merchant of record for direct software checkout, subject to account approval and integration. Paddle would process payment, tax and fraud-prevention information under its own privacy notice. The actual reseller will be identified before payment. Do not send card details to Discovery Desk by email.
Purpose and access
Purchase information is intended to supply and recover the purchased software, deliver receipts and necessary notices, administer included benefits, provide support, handle refunds, secure accounts and meet accounting and legal obligations. Only authorized people and providers needing information for those purposes should receive it. We do not sell family information or use children's work or activity for behavioral advertising.
Before checkout opens, we will identify the actual account, delivery and support providers and explain their roles, international processing where applicable, retention and deletion practices. A planned data flow is not evidence that the corresponding production system is operating.
Children and optional Parent access
Purchases are for adults. Do not enter a child's name, email, birthday, school, profile or saved work in a purchase or support form. A software purchase is not parental consent for collecting child information. Connected features require their own notice, setup and any legally required consent.
If optional Parent access becomes available, activation will require a separate explanation of eligibility, dates, account records and connected information. A computer purchase does not authorize recurring charges. Marketing permission remains separate from purchases, account notices and connected-feature consent.
Support and privacy requests
If you contact us now, we use the adult contact details and information you choose to send to respond. Please leave out child content, passwords, PINs, pairing credentials and payment-card details. We will explain and request permission before asking for a diagnostic file or remote access.
You can ask privacy@discoverydesk.org to review, correct, provide a copy of or delete information we hold about you. We verify your authority before disclosure or changes. We explain any legal reason to retain records. Optional marketing permission can be withdrawn independently of other requests.
Retention and security
Current website and update records follow the website notice. Before purchases open, the commerce notice will specify how purchase, entitlement, delivery, refund, support, recovery and backup records are retained and deleted, including any legal accounting requirements. We will not describe unimplemented account deletion or recovery as an available online service.
We use access restrictions and other safeguards appropriate to the information handled. No online service guarantees perfect security. Report concerns to security@discoverydesk.org without including secrets or private family data.
