0. Otsimo Speech Therapy Privacy Policy
What is “Otsimo Speech Therapy”?
Otsimo Speech Therapy is an app which aims to better understand young children’s speech delays and behaviors using novel technology. The study runs on iPhones & iPads & Android Devices. The information that families send to Otsimo will be used to improve this technology and may help us develop new screening & therapy tools for developmental and speech disorders.
Introduction
Otsimo Bilisim A.S. (“Otsimo”) knows you care about how your information is used and shared. We take protecting your privacy very seriously. Please read the following to learn more about how we use and protect information collected through the App.
By using the App in any manner, you acknowledge that you accept the practices and policies outlined in the Research Policy (this Research Policy”). By saying yes (giving consent to study) the App in any manner, you acknowledge that you accept the practices and policies outlined in the Research Policy (this “Research Policy”).
You consent that we will collect, use, and share your information as described in this Research Policy and as outlined in the Informed Consent process specific to and embedded within each App.
Why did Otsimo launch this app?
The long-term goals of the project are to increase access to childhood speech health screening, to make tools that are accessible to parents and educators, and to help target developing therapy the children who most need them.
How will my participation help research?
This study will test if it is possible to accurately capture information about sound recording in young children using the microphone in a smart device. Information you provide about your child may help researchers develop distance-based tools for therapy young children for developmental and speech disorders.
Who can participate in the study?
- You are 18 years old
- You are this child’s parent or legal guardian.
- You can read and understand English
Are you looking for certain people to participate?
No, all parents and caregivers who are eligible are encouraged to join! In order to better understand children, we need children from all backgrounds, including children with and without developmental delays. The more people who participate, the more we can learn about all children and the greater impact we can have on the lives of families in the future.
Can I participate if my child has a diagnosis of any special condition already?
Yes, we encourage families of children with special needs to participate in order to help future.
What will you tell me about my child?
We are providing video modelling videos for speech therapy with or without participation of study.
The audio research will not give you a result. These tasks are still experimental and the study seeks to learn how children’s responses to these videos relate to the information you provide. With your help, we hope this data will allow us to develop new therapy tools and to better understand children.
How long will it take to participate in the study?
You can do as much as you want. We ask you to take 5 minutes everyday to complete the activities. We understand as a parent, your spare time is limited. The activities can be done all at once or at separate times.
Can I enroll more than one child in the study?
We currently can only let you enroll one child with one account. Please choose one child to enroll in the study for now, in the future we will add the option of enrolling multiple children.
Who will see the videos of my child?
No one. We are not collecting or recording any video. We are not collecting any face marks (facial points) too.
Who will see the face marks of my child?
We are not collecting any face marks. No one can see it.
How the app uses TrueDepth camera?
During the exercise, we may use ARKit with front-facing TrueDepth camera if your device is compatible. We use TrueDepth camera only for face tracking and we don’t store this data. Our usage of TrueDepth camera is limited to iOS ARKit FaceTracking API and due to API limitations, we can’t remove TrueDepth camera usage.
Who will listen the audio recordings of my child?
Only study staff will have access to. All persons who have access to research data at Otsimo must undergo training in ethical practices and confidentiality. Study data does not go to any partners outside of Otsimo.
Who owns the data about my child?
Otsimo Bilişim A.Ş..
What information will be shared with app stores?
All of the data is uploaded directly to Otsimo servers and is not sent to app stores.
Will my information be kept confidential?
Yes, study records that identify you or your child will be kept confidential as required by law. The information will be stored in a password-protected network computer location on a server, and access to the information will be restricted to the research personnel. The data will be used only for research.
What happens if I change my mind about the study?
Like all research studies, you can choose to stop participating in a study at any time.
If you and your child agree to be in the study, you and your child may withdraw from the study at any time. To withdraw from the study, you can select “Leave Study” on the settings tab in the app. We will retain any data already collected in the study before you withdrew. You can also request, via an email to [email protected] , that the researchers delete any of the observation data on your child that has already collected as part of study.
Will I be contacted by e-mail?
The app will ask you whether you want to be contacted. If you answer yes to this question, we may contact you for future studies or follow up questions.
Where do I go for technical support?
For technical support, please see Support or email us [email protected] .
What does this Research Policy cover?
This Research Policy covers our research of personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) that we gather when you are accessing or using the App. This Research Policy does not apply to the practices of companies or institutions that we do not own or control, or to individuals that we do not employ or manage.
Your use of the App will allow you to provide us with Personal Information as outlined within the Informed Consent for each App. The App collects your Personal Information for the purposes of a research study being conducted. If you choose to use the App to provide us with any Personal Information, you must first review and acknowledge the Informed Consent form for the Study, which will be presented to you within the App.
We do not knowingly collect or solicit Personal Information from anyone under the age of 18 or knowingly allow such persons to register for the App without parental consent. If you are under 18, you must not attempt to register for the App and you must not send any information about yourself to us, including but not limited to your name, address, telephone number, or email address without parental consent. In the event that we learn that we have collected Personal Information from a person under age 18 without parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe that we might have any information from or about a person under the age of 18, please contact us using the contact information below. Some Apps may study children and will include parental consent and, when appropriate, child assent. In such cases, the parent or legal guardian must be over the age of 18 to provide consent and to complete the all portions of the Study with their child, or report on their child.
What information does the App collect?
Each App may obtain information from you in two ways. The first is information that you manually enter into the App (e.g., survey responses). The second is information that the App collects automatically about you from your device (e.g., phone or tablet) and/or wearable technology (e.g., wristwatch).The embedded Informed Consent for each App will tell you what items that specific App will be collecting. You may choose not to provide us with certain information. Some items automatically collected will be under your control and you may choose whether or not to provide this information by disabling/enabling this feature (e.g., GPS location information). Refusal to provide some items may exclude you from participation in the Study.
This App may also automatically receive technical information relating to your usage of the App such as your operating system, device, features used, content viewed and downloaded, the dates and times of your interactions with the App and other information. We may use this information to understand, customize and improve user experience with the App and the Study. For example, we may engage third-party analytics services to analyze this information in order to help us understand how visitors engage with and navigate the App, how and when features within the App are used and by how many users. Under no circumstance, however, will your health information be disclosed to such third-party analytics services.
Is Personal Information about me secure?
All information that is collected through the App will be sent to a secure data server. We will replace the direct identifiers listed above (your name, email address, and date of birth) with a code to help protect your identity—We will encrypt the direct identifiers and store them separately. Because the data are coded, researchers using the data will not be able readily to identify which information pertains to you. Otsimo researchers will, however, maintain your consent and personal information and retain the ability to re-identify the information if doing so is needed for research integrity purposes or legal purposes, and they may share re-identified information with others at Otsimo who need to see such information to ensure that the research meets legal, regulatory or institutional requirements.
Access to the App on your smartdevice may be protected by a biometric authentication mechanism (such as Touch ID) or a passcode you select after downloading the app. You should take steps to prevent unauthorized access to your account and personal information by selecting and protecting your credentials appropriately and limiting access to your smartdevice.
We endeavor to protect the privacy of the Personal Information we hold in our records, but we cannot guarantee complete security. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors, may compromise the security of your Personal Information at any time.
The App may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and/or practices on websites that may be accessed through these links. When following a link to another website, you should read that website’s privacy policy and make sure that you agree with it and can abide by it.
It is recommended that you run a current operating system (OS) on your device, review the privacy/security settings often, and restrict any unnecessary access. Apps may run in the background of your device and may have unanticipated impact on the operations of your device (e.g., battery drainage). If you do not have an unlimited data/text plan, you may incur additional charges. At the conclusion of the study, you may wish to remove the App from your device.
We are not asking you to make any health decisions based on the use of the App. You should discuss health decisions directly with your healthcare provider.
We reserve the right to disclose information collected through the App as required by law, when we believe disclosure is necessary to comply with a regulatory requirement, judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on us, or to protect the safety, rights, or property of Otsimo or the public.
What choices do I have?
You may choose not to opt-in the study. If you choose not to opt-in the study, you can still use the app.
You may stop all collection of information by the App at any time by withdrawing from the study on the profile page within the App or uninstalling the App. As explained further in each informed consent form, you will no longer be able to participate in the Study if you choose to uninstall the App. If you uninstall the App, we will retain all of information about you that was collected prior to that point and continue to use such information as described in this Research Policy. If you have questions about withdrawing, please contact the study team using the contact information within the app. When you withdraw from a study any data collected up to that point will be retained by the study team. If you wish to your study data deleted you will need to contact the study team using the contact information on the consent form or within the app. If a request to delete data is made we will do our best to remove your data from our systems.
You may be able to add, update, or delete certain information as explained above. When you update or delete information, we may maintain a copy of the unrevised information in our records.

6. Children’s Privacy
We recognize the need to provide further privacy protections with respect to personal information we may collect from children on our sites and applications. Some of the features on our sites and applications are age-gated so that they are not available for use by children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children in connection with those features. When we intend to collect personal information from children, we take additional steps to protect children’s privacy, including:
- Notifying parents about our information practices with regard to children, including the types of personal information we may collect from children, the uses to which we may put that information, and whether and with whom we may share that information
- In accordance with applicable law, obtaining consent from parents for the collection of personal information from their children, or for sending information about our products and services directly to their children
- Limiting our collection of personal information from children to no more than is reasonably necessary to participate in an online activity
- Giving parents access or the ability to request access to personal information we have collected from their children and the ability to request that the personal information be changed or deleted
Children’s Online Privacy Policy
Otsimo, including for example Otsimo Child and Otsimo Family, is committed to protecting the privacy of children who use our sites and applications. This Children’s Online Privacy Policy explains our information collection, disclosure, and parental consent practices with respect to information provided by children under the age of 13 (“child” or “children”), and uses terms that are defined in our general Privacy Policy. This policy is in accordance with the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), and outlines our practices in the United States and Latin America regarding children’s personal information. For more information about COPPA and general tips about protecting children’s online privacy, please visit OnGuard Online; https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0031-protecting-your-childs-privacy-online .
a. The Information We Collect From Children, How We Use It, and How and When We Communicate With Parents
Otsimo offers to its users a range of sites and applications, some of which are primarily targeted at children, and others that are intended for users of all ages and their families. Our sites and applications offer a variety of activities, including activities that may collect information from children. Below we summarize potential instances of collection and outline how and when we will provide parental notice and/or seek parental consent. In any instance that we collect personal information from a child, we will retain that information only so long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the activity request or allow the child to continue to participate in the activity, and ensure the security of our users and our services, or as required by law. In the event we discover we have collected information from a child in a manner inconsistent with COPPA’s requirements, we will either delete the information or immediately seek the parent’s consent for that collection.
Registration
Children can, in many cases, register with our sites and applications to view content, play games, participate in contests, and engage in special features, among other things. During the registration process, we may ask the child to provide certain information for notification and security purposes, including a parent or guardian’s email address, the child’s first name and gender, the child’s member or account username, and password. We also may ask for birth dates from children to validate their ages. Please note that family or children can choose whether to share their information with us, but certain features cannot function without it. As a result, family or children may not be able to access certain features if required information has not been provided. We will not require a child to provide more information than is reasonably necessary in order to participate in an online activity.
About the collection of parent email address: Consistent with the requirements of COPPA, on any child-targeted site or application, or in any instance where we ask for age and determine the user is age 12 or under, we will ask for a parent or guardian email address before we collect any personal information from the child. If you believe your child is participating in an activity that collects personal information and you or another parent/guardian have NOT received an email providing notice or seeking your consent, please feel free to contact us at [email protected] . We will not use parent emails provided for parental consent purposes to market to the parent, unless the parent has expressly opted in to email marketing or has separately participated in an activity that allows for such email contact.
Content Generated by a Child
Certain activities on our sites and applications allow children to create or manipulate content and save it with Otsimo. Some of these activities do not require children to provide any personal information and therefore may not result in notice to the parent or require parental consent. If an activity potentially allows a child to insert personal information in their created content, we will either pre-screen the submission to delete any personal information, or we will seek verifiable parental consent by email for the collection. Examples of created content that may include personal information are stories or other open-text fields, and drawings that allow text or free-hand entry of information. If, in addition to collecting content that includes personal information, Otsimo also plans to post the content publicly or share it with a others for the others’ own use, we will obtain a higher level of parental consent.
About Verifiable Parental Consent:
Email Consent. In the event Otsimo wishes to collect personal information from a child, COPPA requires that we first seek a parent or guardian’s consent by email. In the email we will explain what information we are collecting, how we plan to use it, how the parent can provide consent, and how the parent can revoke consent. If we do not receive parental consent within a reasonable time, we will delete the parent contact information and any other information collected from the child in connection with that activity.
High-Level Consent. In the event Otsimo collects personal information from a child that will be posted publicly, we will seek a higher level of consent than email consent. Such “high-level” methods of consent include but are not limited to verification, speaking to a trained customer service representative by telephone, or requiring a signed consent form by mail, email attachment, or fax. After providing high-level consent, a parent may have the opportunity to use a pin or password in future communications as a way to confirm the parent’s identity.
Teacher consent in lieu of a parent. With regard to school-based activities, COPPA allows teachers and school administrators to act in the stead of parents to provide consent for the collection of personal information from children. Schools should always notify parents about these activities. For more information on parental rights with respect to a child’s educational record under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), please visit the FERPA site.
Chat
Our games and activities that are NOT directed to children allow users to communicate directly with other users by means of a chat system. We haven’t got any children chat system! We also recommend that parents carefully supervise their children when the children participate in online activities.
Where Otsimo employs a chat system that does not filter all or nearly all personal information, we will first seek high-level consent from the parent.
Email Contact with a Child
On occasion, in order to respond to a question or request from a child, Otsimo may need to ask for the child’s online contact information, such as an email address. Otsimo will delete this information immediately after responding to the question or request.
In connection with certain activities or services, we may collect a child’s online contact information, such as an email address, in order to communicate with the child more than once. In such instances we will retain the child’s online contact information to honor the request and for no other purpose such as marketing. One example would be a newsletter that provides occasional updates about a site, game/activity, television show, personality/character, or feature movie. Whenever we collect a child’s online contact information for ongoing communications, we will simultaneously require a parent email address in order to notify the parent about the collection and use of the child’s information, as well as to provide the parent an opportunity to prevent further contact with the child. On some occasions a child may be engaged in more than one ongoing communication, and a parent may be required to “opt-out” of each communication individually.
Push Notifications
Push notifications are notifications on mobile and other devices that are typically associated with downloaded applications, and which can communicate to the device holder even when the application is not in use. We will require a child to provide a parent email address before the child can receive push notifications from our child-directed applications that collect a device identifier. We will then provide the parent with notice of our contact with the child and will provide the parent the opportunity to prevent further notifications. Finally, we will not associate the device identifier with other personal information without contacting the parent to get consent.
Geolocation Data
If a child-directed Otsimo site or application collects geolocation information that is specific enough to equate to the collection of a street address, we will first seek parental consent via email.
Persistent Identifiers
When children interact with us, certain information may automatically be collected, both to make our sites and applications more interesting and useful to children and for various purposes related to our business. Examples include the type of computer operating system, the child’s IP address or mobile device identifier, the web browser, the frequency with which the child visits various parts of our sites or applications, and information regarding the online or mobile service provider. This information is collected using technologies such as cookies, HTML5 cookies, web beacons, and other unique identifiers (which we define under the “Online Tracking Technologies” section of our general Privacy Policy). This information may be collected by Otsimo. This data is principally used for internal purposes only, in order to:
- provide children with access to features and activities on our sites and applications
- customize content and improve our sites and applications
- conduct research and analysis to address the performance of our sites and applications
- generate anonymous reporting for use by Otsimo
- In the event we collect (or allow others to collect) such information from children on our sites and
- applications for other purposes, we will notify parents and obtain consent prior to such collection.
Please contact us at the mailing address, email, or phone number below with questions about the operators’ privacy policies and collection and use practices.
b. When Information Collected From Children Is Available To Others
In addition to those rare instances where a child’s personal information is posted publicly (after receiving high-level parental consent), we also may share or disclose personal information collected from children in a limited number of instances, including the following:
We may share information with our service providers if necessary for them to perform a business, professional, or technology support function for us.
We may disclose personal information if permitted or required by law, for example, in response to a court order or a subpoena. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we also may disclose personal information collected from children (i) in response to a law enforcement or public agency’s (including schools or children services) request; (ii) if we believe disclosure may prevent the instigation of a crime, facilitate an investigation related to public safety or protect the safety of a child using our sites or applications; (iii) to protect the security or integrity of our sites, applications, and other technology, as well as the technology of our service providers; or (iv) enable us to take precautions against liability.
c. Parental Choices and Controls
At any time, parents can refuse to permit us to collect further personal information from their children in association with a particular account, and can request that we delete from our records the personal information we have collected in connection with that account. Please keep in mind that a request to delete records may lead to a termination of an account, membership, or other service.
Where a child has registered for a Otsimo.com account, we use two methods to allow parents to access, change, or delete the personally identifiable information that we have collected from their children:
Parents can request access to and delete their child’s personal information by logging on to the child’s account through the Member Services Home Page located here. Parents will need their child’s username and password. The Your Account home page explains how to recover a password if the child cannot recall it. Parents can contact Guest Services to request access to, change, or delete their child’s personal information by sending an email to us at [email protected] . A valid request to delete personal information will be accommodated within a reasonable time.
Data Security, Integrity and Retention
The security, integrity and confidentiality of your information are extremely important to us. We have implemented technical, administrative and physical security measures that are designed to protect guest information from unauthorized access, disclosure, use and modification. From time to time, we review our security procedures to consider appropriate new technology and methods. Please be aware though that, despite our best efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. We will retain your personal information for the length of time needed to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy policy unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
8. Data Transfers, Storage and Processing Globally
We operate globally and may transfer your personal information to individual companies of Otsimo in locations around the world for the purposes described in this privacy policy. Wherever your personal information is transferred, stored or processed by us, we will take reasonable steps to safeguard the privacy of your personal information. Additionally, when using or disclosing personal information transferred from the European Union, we abide by the Safe Harbor Principles as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce, use standard contract clauses approved by the European Commission, adopt other means under European Union law for ensuring adequate safeguards, or obtain your consent. We also apply the substantive requirements of the Safe Harbor Principles when transferring personal information from Australia.
9. Fees and Payment
Some services are free for you to use. Some services require a payment from you. Some services may be free for a period, but then require a payment which may be taken automatically. Any particular payment terms of any paid for services will be made clear to you before you agree to pay for them and the relevant payment terms shall be incorporated into these terms by reference. When purchasing services such as a premium App you may make your purchase through one of our Websites or from an app store provider such as the Google Play Store. If from an app store provider, as well as these terms, you will be subject to the terms of that app store provider. We may change the price and nature of services at our discretion, but if you are paying for services, we will always give you notice should the price change, or there is a significant change in the nature of the services that you are using. We accept no responsibility for any losses you may incur by failing to change or cancel a subscription after we have informed you of any changes to pricing or nature of services. You may pay for certain services (either via one of our Websites, from within one of our Apps, or via an app store provider) using an auto-renewing subscription. This means your subscription will be automatically renewed at the end of each subscription period unless you cancel it. If you do not cancel it you will be charged in advance for the next subscription period. Auto subscriptions can be modified or cancelled by changing your settings with the appropriate app store provider, or if you purchased the services directly from us, from within the service purchased (eg the App), or by contacting us at [email protected] . We have a 2-day refund policy. If you cancel within two days of your subscription, you can get your refund through the payment providers. If you cancel a subscription after the 2-day refund period you cannot claim a refund for the period remaining until the end of the subscription period in which you cancelled. If you think that you may be entitled to a refund for services and you purchased those services from one of our Websites or from within one of our Apps you can contact us at [email protected] . If you purchased the services from an app store provider then you should contact that app store provider as we will be unable to process such refund requests.
10. Changes to this Privacy Policy
From time to time, we may change this privacy policy to accommodate new technologies, industry practices, regulatory requirements or for other purposes. We will provide notice to you if these changes are material and, where required by applicable law, we will obtain your consent.
11. Comments and Questions
If you have a comment or question about this privacy policy, please contact Guest Services. Our sites and applications may contain links to other sites not owned or controlled by us and we are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We encourage you to be aware when you leave our sites or applications and to read the privacy policies of other sites that may collect your personal information.
