Is Torah Live safe for my child?

How we keep kids safe: approved content, parent consent, submission approval, no chat between kids, and no social sharing.

Written by Meir

Yes, Torah Live is safe for your child. We built it for kids, with parents in charge. Here's how.

Content

  • 100% of our content is approved by leading gedolim.

Signing up

  • Kids under 13 can't open a Torah Live account without the direct involvement and permission of a parent or legal guardian.

  • When a child creates an account, we get consent from their parent or legal guardian. If Torah Live is used in a school, we don't rely on the school to get consent for kids under 13. We get it directly from the parent or legal guardian, using technology we built for exactly this.

  • When your child asks to join a teacher's class, the teacher approves the request. Anything your child submits in that class still needs your approval first.

Submissions

  • Every drawing, photo, recording, video, or other submission from a child under 16 needs a parent's or legal guardian's approval. You also decide who can see it. See how parental approval works.

  • You control whose submissions your child can see.

Messaging and social media

  • Kids can't message or chat with other kids on Torah Live. We keep it that way so Torah Live never turns into a social media platform.

  • You can send your child an encouraging message from your dashboard. If your child is in a class, their teacher can too. Your child can read these messages, but can't reply.

  • Our support team can also message users. These messages go through Torah Live's messaging system, which multiple members of our team monitor.

  • There's no way to share anything from Torah Live to Facebook, Instagram, or other social media. You also can't log in with Facebook or another social media account.

Privacy

  • Only you and your family members can see your child's points and progress. If your child is in a class, their teacher and classmates can see them too. School rankings show school totals, not individual kids.

  • We never use your child's progress, submissions, or activity for marketing without your explicit approval.
