About ChatLicence

Happy Cyber Vibes

We want every child to be able to outsmart their smartphone. Wherever and whenever. Our mission is Happy Cyber Vibes for everyone. As an impact-driven organization, we work throughs collaborations and join forces to make a difference.

New first step

With ChatLicense we add a new first step to the arrival of the first smartphone in life. The first (st)app on every kids smartphone: ChatLicense. Kids get their digital driver’s license by learning in a safe environment how to deal with their first smartphone. First you get your ChatLicense, then you scroll & swipe, share & like.

Download, scroll, swipe, share & like!

Learning method

Our learning method is based on scientific research from our partner MovezLab from Erasmus University Rotterdam. With the app we bring this learning method – that includes modeling, training and education – to life.  Because research shows that connected parents & kids are needed to realize safe and smart online behavior. Therefore both kids and parents use the app. So you both will be able to step with confidence in the online world.

Team work

For the content we work with gamers, comedians, children’s book authors, filmmakers and specialists in psychology and cybersecurity.

And to make sure we get it right, we work closely with university researchers in media-savvy behavior and a community of parents and children who provide input and feedback.

But online, your child can just as easily — sometimes even more effectively —...

Oh, the irony: when location tracking leads to less control 

Safely arrived at soccer practice? Left that friend’s house on time? Checking where your child is via Find My Friends or Life360 feels reassuring, but is it really?  Knowing your child’s location doesn’t automatically tell you how they’re doing. Technology...
