Every parent asks the same first question about a monitoring tool: "is this thing creepy?" Fair question. Here is the complete, plain-language answer — the same facts as our privacy policy, without the legal wrapping.
When your child opens a YouTube video, the extension sends the video's ID to our server. We look up the video's public title, channel, and description, and ask an AI one question: "does this match this family's rules?" The answer comes back as allow or block, with a reason written for you in plain English — quoting the rule of yours it matched. The AI provider (Anthropic) receives only public video metadata — never your name, your child's identity, or your account details.
The deal, in one sentence: ParentalView watches videos, not your child.
It enforces the rules you wrote, shows you its work, and knows as little about your family as it possibly can while doing that job.
Everything ParentalView stores about your family is visible in your dashboard, and you can delete your account — and every byte of data with it — in one click, any time. No retention tricks, no "30–90 business days," no emailing support to beg.
Most parental-control tools work by surveilling the child — scanning their messages, logging their screens, mapping their location. ParentalView starts from a different idea: you don't need to surveil your kid; you need your family's values applied to what the internet serves them. So we built the smallest possible tool that does exactly that, and nothing else.
