SPC Kite Privacy Policy

 

Last updated: 05/12/2026

This Privacy Policy describes how SMART PRODUCTS CONNECTION (SPC) collects, uses, and shares information in relation to the SPC Kite application. 

1. Data controller

Smart Products Connection, S.A., hereinafter SPC, is the entity responsible for processing the personal data handled through the SPC Kite application.

  • Company name: Smart Products Connection, S.A.
  • Registered office: Euskadi Technology Park, Leonardo da Vinci 14,
    01510 Vitoria-Gasteiz (Álava), Spain
  • Contact email: privacy@onspc.com

SPC is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of its users and applies the necessary measures to ensure lawful, fair, and transparent processing.

2. Scope of application

This Privacy Policy describes how SPC processes the personal data of users who use SPC Kite, a family-use application intended for parental control and supervision of devices used by minors.

This policy applies exclusively to SPC Kite. Other SPC products, applications, or services will be governed by their own privacy policies when expressly indicated.

3. Definitions

  • Adult user / Legal guardian: adult who creates the main account and manages the supervision.
  • Minor / Supervised user: minor whose device is supervised through SPC Kite.
  • Supervised device: mobile device linked to the parental account.
  • Personal data: any information related to an identified or identifiable natural person.
  • Supervision / monitoring: continuous processing of certain data from the supervised device in order to provide parental control functions.

4. Use of supervision and monitoring functions (EXPRESS DISCLOSURE)

SPC Kite is specifically designed to allow parents or legal guardians to remotely supervise and manage certain aspects of a minor's mobile device usage, including device usage information, device status, and, if the legal guardian activates it, its approximate location.

These features involve the continuous collection and processing of certain data from the supervised device and are only activated after the legal guardian has been clearly informed and has given their explicit consent through visible notices within the app during the initial setup process.

SPC Kite does not operate covertly, does not hide its monitoring capabilities, and does not perform any type of monitoring unless the legal guardian has consciously configured and activated these functions.

5. Legal basis for processing

SPC processes personal data in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and Organic Law 3/2018, based on:

  • The explicit consent of the legal guardian.
  • The execution of the contract, necessary to provide the parental control service.
  • The legitimate interest of the legal guardian in protecting the minor's safety and well-being.

In Spain, the processing of personal data of minors under 14 years old requires the consent of the person holding parental authority or legal guardianship.

6. Categories of personal data processed

a) Data processed when creating an SPC Kite account

  • Email address
  • Password
  • User identifier

b) Data processed when linking a device

  • Technical identifiers necessary for linking
  • Association of the device with the parental account

c) Data processed during supervision

  • Device usage information
  • Device status
  • Battery level
  • Parental control events (blocks, permissions, limits)

d) Subscription and payment data

  • Information necessary to manage subscriptions

Payment data is processed exclusively through secure payment platforms and is neither stored nor directly accessible by SPC.

7. Background execution

To offer its main features, SPC Kite may run in the background on the supervised device, allowing parental control functions to remain active even when the app is not open.

This behavior is essential for the service's purpose, is directly related to its main functionality, and is clearly communicated to the user before activation.

8. Use of the AccessibilityService API

SPC Kite uses the Android AccessibilityService API exclusively to enable essential parental control functions, such as applying usage restrictions, detecting app status, and executing predefined actions necessary to manage the supervised device.

The app is not an accessibility tool nor does it claim such status, and the use of this API is not intended to assist people with disabilities.

SPC Kite does not collect or transmit sensitive content through this API, including, but not limited to:

  • Text entered by the user or keystrokes
  • Passwords
  • Private messages
  • Financial or payment data

The use of this API requires the knowledge and explicit informed consent of the legal guardian, obtained through a specific disclosure within the app before its activation.

The data processed through the AccessibilityService API is used exclusively for parental control purposes, is not reused for other purposes, and is not shared with third parties for advertising or commercial purposes.

9. Processing of minors' data

SPC Kite involves the processing of personal data of minors, so SPC applies enhanced protection measures.

In particular:

  • The minor's data is only accessible by the authorized legal guardian.
  • No personalized advertising is shown to minors.
  • No commercial profiling of minors is performed.
  • Data of minors is not sold, rented, or shared for advertising or marketing purposes.

10. Platform transparency and data safety statements

SPC Kite complies with the Google Play User Data Policy and provides accurate information in the Data Safety section of Google Play, reflecting:

  • What data is collected and processed.
  • For what purposes data is used.
  • If data is shared (it is not shared, except with providers acting as data processors).
  • That users can request the deletion of their data.

The information provided on Google Play is consistent with this Privacy Policy.

11. Legitimate use and limitations

SPC Kite is not designed for covert surveillance, corporate espionage, or unauthorized tracking of adults.

Its use is strictly limited to family environments and requires the legal guardian to have a legitimate right to monitor the configured device, in accordance with applicable law.

12. Data retention

Personal data will be retained:

  • While the SPC Kite account is active.
  • While there is a contractual relationship.
  • For the periods required by applicable regulations.

Once the relationship ends, data will be deleted or anonymized, except for legal retention obligations.

13. Data recipients

Personal data is not sold or shared with third parties.

SPC may use service providers acting as data processors under written contracts that guarantee compliance with the GDPR.

14. International data transfers

If any service involves international data transfers, SPC will ensure an adequate level of protection through legally recognized mechanisms.

15. User rights

Users can exercise their rights of access, rectification, deletion, opposition, restriction of processing, and portability by sending a request to privacy@spc.es.

They may also file a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Agency (www.aepd.es).

16. Parental responsibility

SPC Kite is a parental control support tool. The legal guardian is responsible for:

  • Properly configure the monitoring features.
  • Inform the minor about the use of the app, according to their age and level of maturity.

17. Changes to the privacy policy

SPC may update this Privacy Policy to adapt it to legal or functional changes. Updates will be communicated through the app or by other reasonable means.

18. Applicable law

This Privacy Policy is governed by Spanish and European data protection legislation.
