You're presumably operating out of Estonia, so American laws like COPPA[1] probably don't apply to you (disclaimer IANAL). I have no idea if the EU and/or Estonia have counterpart law(s).

Nonetheless, the complete lack of a privacy policy at the time of writing this comment is concerning particularly because you are (explicitly!) interacting with and handling data concerning children.

I would strongly advise consulting with a lawyer about what legal measures you need to comply with for a service like this.

thank you i'm immediately starting to work on it. but actually it is not a kids software. it is a "latest video player from the channels you like" as a youtube companion. focus is that, not kids. but thank you i'll check what i need to do.
