Privacy and trust

The conversation belongs to you.

FO-C-US measures whether a shared moment is happening. It does not need to hear, transcribe, or judge what your family says.

Honour before surveillance

FO-C-US is a voluntary family ritual.

Motion detection happens on each phone where supported. Clear manual controls remain available. Necessary use pauses the shared moment instead of punishing the person.

We will not use microphones or behavioural inference to “prove” that a family engaged with a topic. Any future research involving audio would require a separate, explicit consent model and would not be silently added to the core experience.
