Bark

Bark uses advanced algorithms to detect and proactively alert parents to issues your family faces online, such as bullying, predators, sexual content, and more. You can stay on top of your child's location using our real-time map or location check-in features. We also monitor social media and also block access to specific web sites and harmful categories while only alerting you to potential problems. Bark's approach saves parents valuable time and helps build trust between families.

Using our check-in feature, you can simply press a button to send your current location to your parent. This offers you peace of mind that your child has made it safely to their destination.

To do this, the Bark app will need access to photos/videos, contacts, the list of installed apps on the device, and browsing history. We use Accessibility to monitor your child's third-party message data.

Additionally, we use a VPN service to monitor your child's internet traffic for harmful content even when the app is not in use. Bark collects read and write call log data to enable contact monitoring even when the app is not in use
