Contigga: GPS & Family Safety

Contigga is a transparent parental control app for Android — screen time limits, app blocking, location tracking, web filtering, and keyword alerts, all visible to your child, never hidden. A parent installs Contigga on their own child's Android device to monitor and manage it, with everything reported to the parent's Contigga dashboard. WHY "TRANSPARENT" Contigga is designed to be visible. It always shows its own launcher icon, it shows a permanent notification on the child's device whenever monitoring is running, and it includes a "What we monitor" screen the child can open at any time to read exactly what is collected. Contigga never hides itself — because oversight your child knows about builds more trust than oversight that depends on secrecy. Contigga is only for a parent or legal guardian monitoring their own minor child. It is not for monitoring other adults, partners, employees, or anyone who has not consented. Monitoring an adult without their knowledge is illegal in many places and is not a supported use of this app. WHAT A PARENT CAN DO • Screen time — see how many minutes each app is used per day, and set daily limits for all apps or for specific apps. • App rules — block an app entirely, or allow it only during chosen hours. • Location — see the device's current and recent location, and set places such as home or school to be alerted when the child arrives or leaves. • Web filtering — block website categories or specific sites on the device. • Keyword alerts — get an alert when words the parent chooses appear in what the child types or in an incoming message notification. HOW CONTIGGA USES THE ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE Contigga uses Android's AccessibilityService API for two purposes, both core to parental control and both disclosed to the child in the app before the service is enabled: 1. To see which app is currently on screen, so that app-blocking rules and screen-time limits can be applied to that app. 2. To check text as it is typed on the device against the keyword list the parent set up. When a blocked app is opened, Contigga sends the name of that app and the time to the parent's dashboard. When typed text matches a parent-defined keyword, Contigga sends a short snippet of that text (up to 200 characters), the app it came from, and the time. Contigga does not log or transmit anything else that is typed. It is not a keylogger, and it never sends full messages. HOW CONTIGGA USES THE VPN SERVICE Contigga uses Android's VpnService API to run a content filter on the device itself. The filter inspects only this device's DNS look-ups locally, in order to block the website categories and sites the parent chose. No web traffic and no browsing history is routed to Contigga's servers or to any third party through this VPN, and no remote VPN endpoint is used. When a site is blocked, Contigga sends the blocked address and the time to the parent's dashboard so the parent can see it. Android displays its standard VPN indicator whenever the filter is active. WHAT CONTIGGA COLLECTS Account details the parent enters (parent email address, child's name), device details (make, model, Android version, app version, battery level), app usage totals, the list of installed apps, blocked-app attempts, location and place alerts, blocked-site events, and keyword-match snippets. This data is sent to Contigga's servers over an encrypted connection and is visible only to the parent on their account. WHAT CONTIGGA NEVER DOES • Never records audio and never requests microphone access. • Never sends full message text, photos, or general typing. • Never hides its icon or its monitoring notification. • Never sells personal data. A parent account with an active subscription is required. You can delete your account and all associated family data at any time from the dashboard, or by request: https://contigga.com/delete-account.php Privacy policy: https://contigga.com/privacy.php
