Personal information (PII)

Warns when kids are asked to share addresses, passwords, schedules, or other details that should stay private.

Whether it’s a new crush asking for a home address or a scammer fishing for Apple ID codes, Joey surfaces PII conversations so you can reinforce safe sharing habits.

What this alert monitors

  • Detects when someone asks for security codes, Apple ID, or school schedules.
  • Flags oversharing from your child too, not just requests from others.
  • Provides quick coaching prompts so you can teach polite but firm refusal scripts.

Coaching next steps

Every family conversation is different. Treat these ideas as starting points and add your own context, values, and tone. Replace the placeholder copy here with your own notes when you build the full guide.

Remind kids that legit companies or friends will never need verification codes sent over chat.
Practice responses like “I don’t share that online” so they’re ready in the moment.
If sensitive info already leaked, rotate passwords and consider a temporary device lock-down.

Add screenshots and stories

Drop in Smart Alert screenshots, anonymized transcripts, or founder commentary. Keep each section focused on the real coaching moment parents will face once this alert fires.

Placeholder ideas:

  • Real-world example (scrub all identifying info).
  • Guided script: “When I see this alert I usually say…”
  • Resources to share with teens (helplines, articles, or family agreements).
