Pausight uses the camera to measure how far your child's eyes are from the screen (from the size of the coloured part of the eye) and, if you turn posture checks on, how their head and shoulders sit. That check runs entirely inside the web browser on your device. The video from the camera, the pictures in it, and the face and body points we measure from it are never uploaded, saved, or sent anywhere, not to us and not to anyone else.

Turning the camera off (the “Camera off” button, or closing the page) stops it completely.

A parent signs in with Google. From Google we receive your email address and your Google account's ID, which is how we know it's you next time. When you set up, we also keep: the age ranges of your kids (not their names or birthdays), how you heard about Pausight if you tell us, which invite link you came from if any, your answer to the price question if you give one, your settings, and your parent PIN in a scrambled form we can't read back. We record the date you gave consent and the wording you agreed to.

If your kid picks favourite channels from our list, we keep which channels they picked, so those show first. That is a preference, not a record of what they watched.

To link a kid's iPad, your phone shows a one-time code. Entering it on the iPad signs that iPad in to your parent account, so its numbers count toward your family. The code works once and expires after 15 minutes; we keep it only to check that. Your kid never makes an account. Parent settings on the iPad stay locked behind your PIN or the grown-up maths question.

So we can tell whether Pausight is helping, each watch session adds a few numbers to your account:

• when it started, what kind of device it was (for example “iPad”), and how many minutes of video played;
• how much of that time was spent at a safe distance, and the average distance;
• how many times it paused and why (for example “too close”), how far back they sat after a too-close pause, and how long it took to sort out;
• how many eye breaks were finished or cut short, and how often the camera was turned off.

These are counts and averages only. We never keep which videos were watched or searched for, and nothing that identifies which of your children was watching.

• No accounts, names, emails, birthdays or photos for kids.
• No camera pictures, recordings, or face measurements.
• No record of which videos are watched or searched for.
• No advertising or tracking tools of our own, and we never sell or share your information.

If you fill in the feedback form, we keep what you choose to tell us, linked to your account if you're signed in. We only quote a comment if you tick the box allowing it, and never with your name. Please don't include your child's name in a comment.

In Pausight, tap Parents → Delete account and data. Your account, your settings, every count, and your feedback are deleted straight away. No email needed.

The videos are YouTube's, played through YouTube's official player and the YouTube API Services. While a video plays, YouTube may collect information under its own rules, including showing its own ads. By watching through Pausight you agree to the YouTube Terms of Service, and Google's handling of information is covered by the Google Privacy Policy. We use the youtube-nocookie.com player, YouTube's more privacy-friendly version, and we turn off comments and Shorts.

Pausight is hosted by Vercel, which keeps standard short-lived server logs (such as IP addresses) for security. Accounts, counts and feedback are stored with Supabase. Google handles sign-in. None of them receive anything from the camera.

Pausight is made for kids aged 5 to 11. Because of that, the account belongs to the parent, who gives consent before anything is counted, and the only things counted about a child's use are the numbers listed above, used only to see whether Pausight helps. If you think something personal about your child reached us (for example in a feedback comment), delete your account or email us and we'll remove it.
