Confidentiality and GDPR
GDPR: StrongChild data and family data are special category personal data (GDPR). AI applications for childcare quickly fall into the high-risk category of the EU AI Act: human oversight is legally required. Only use systems with EU hosting and a data processing agreement; audio recordings of the group must not be sent unencrypted to external servers. Never enter children's names or personal data into a consumer version of a chatbot.
Data is stored in the US by default; EU data residency is possible via AWS Bedrock or Google Vertex AI (EU region). Business tiers and the API do not train on your input; consumer tiers do, unless you opt out.
