Gold Stars is free to use during our beta. As we grow we'll add affordable family plans, and we're building sponsored access so organisations can cover the cost for families who need it. See Pricing.

No. A parent or guardian holds the account. Children have their own friendly profile inside it — they don't sign up, and we don't collect photos of them, their email, contact details or location beyond what a feature needs.

Privacy is central to how Gold Stars is built: each family's data is isolated, sensitive information is private by default, and access is explicit and revocable. Read our approach to privacy & safety.

Each parent, carer or grandparent can have their own secure login, limited to specific children, with custody and time-with-parent on a shared calendar. See Co-parenting.

Gold Stars runs in a web browser, so it works on phones, tablets and computers — no app store needed.

Yes. You can invite trusted adults with exactly the level of access you choose, from full involvement to a simple view-only window — and you can change or remove it anytime.

No. It's a family wellbeing and organisation tool. The mood check-in helps children share how they feel; it isn't a diagnosis. If you're worried about your child, please speak to a qualified professional.
