Last Updated: June 10, 2026
1. Introduction
We are pleased to present the Privacy Policy for the Baby Soother Mom's Voice app (hereafter referred to as "Application"), developed for mobile devices by ZenTech-Studio (hereafter referred to as "Service Provider").
Current Status: All features are completely free to use.
Future Plans: This service may be offered under a freemium model in the future. If that happens, we will update this Privacy Policy.
By using our Application, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. We respect your privacy and do not sell or share your personal information with anyone.
Important: We do not collect any personal information directly from you. Any data collected is handled by third-party services (explained below).
Unless otherwise stated, the definitions in this Privacy Policy correspond with those in our Terms and Conditions for Baby Soother.
2. Who This App Is For
Baby Soother is made for parents, not for children.
- Purpose: To help parents calm their child or infant using:
- Built-in soothing sounds: White noise, heartbeat, fan, rain, and more
- Custom recordings: Parents can record their own voice, lullabies, or personalized sounds
- Users: Adults (18+) only
- Children: Infants and children do not operate the app — parents do
If you are under 18, please do not use this app without parental supervision.
