PrivacyPal Family guards the AI your kids talk to every day. Now it covers Roblox too: the place they play, chat and make friends, and where someone they have never met can message them directly. Same deal as AI. You hold the keys, their private details stay home, and you see signals, not their chats.
Roblox protection runs on the family Mac today. Windows is next. Included in the Family plan.
1 message held today · school name
Family started with the AI your kids talk to every day, and that is still its heart. Roblox joins the lineup with its own controls, because a game full of real people needs different rules than a chatbot.

With AI, the worry is what your kid shares with a machine. In Roblox, it is what they share with people. Most of those people are other kids having fun. Not all of them are.
Other players can send messages, friend requests and invites to talk somewhere else. That is the part of Roblox that needs a parent's say.
Roblox's own filters catch a lot, and they are good. Your never-share list adds what only your family knows: that your kid's school is Oakridge Elementary, or that your street is Pinecrest.
Roblox gives parents real controls. Family adds the signals: when your kid tried to share their address, you see it as a count, and the message stays theirs.
Each one names the mechanism that makes it true.
Messages, profile text and group posts are checked on the device before they leave. Anything on your never-share list, like a school, a street or a sibling's name, is held instead of sent. Your kid sees why, edits it, and sends again. Nothing is stored.
mechanism · on-device check before send · held for your kid's editFive switches per child in Parent HQ: play, chat, friend requests, voice and spending. Play starts on. Everything social starts off. Your kid can ask for more, and you decide.
mechanism · per-child switches, enforced on the deviceChat inside games is controlled by Roblox's own account settings, which follow your kid to a phone, a console or a friend's house. Setup walks you through them, and we tell you if they change.
mechanism · guided setup in Roblox · alerts when a setting driftsGrooming patterns, secrecy pressure and pushes to move to another app or meet up raise an alert to you immediately, and your kid is told in the moment. Chat typed inside a game is checked within seconds of sending.
mechanism · on-device detection · alerts to you · always disclosed to your kidRoblox gets its own panel, right next to your AI tools, because looking after a game full of people is a different job from approving a chatbot.

Design preview of the Parent HQ Roblox panel. Not a Roblox screen.
Roblox has its own step in setup, right after the AI tool picker. It shows up only for kids who play.
One question per child. No Roblox, no change.
Parent account linked, age check done, chat set where you want it. We link you straight to each one in Roblox.
Play on. Chat, friend requests, voice and spending off. Turn on what fits your kid.
Before you finish, a plain list of what is held, what is flagged and what you control. Your kid sees the same list.
Safety tech for kids is a trust business. Here is exactly what Family does in Roblox, and where.
Guardrails, not surveillance. The line Family draws for AI holds in Roblox too.
You set things up with your own parent account in Roblox. Your kid's sign-in is theirs alone.
You see what was held and why, as a category. Their messages stay theirs.
Every message sends exactly as your kid wrote it, or waits for their edit.
Roblox messages are checked right on the family computer, then they're gone.
Family looks after your kid's side of the conversation, and respects every other player's.
Games load, join and play exactly as before. Game first, always.
No stealth mode. Your kid's own Pal app shows them exactly what you see about their Roblox, and what stays theirs, at every stage.
| About their Roblox | Parents see | Stays theirs |
|---|---|---|
| Whether Roblox is on, and which parts (chat, friend requests, voice, spending) | Yes | |
| How many messages got held, and why (like "school name") | Yes | |
| A danger alert, and your kid is told the moment it fires early access | Yes | |
| The messages themselves, theirs or anyone else's | Private |
