It certainly wouldn't be "hidden", I may be a bit of a technical junky, but not even my own mother could even browse my phone let alone install software then go as far as to hide it from me :-/. Then again I am legally an adult now, how you wish to approach this is up to you.
I can't say anything about the HP line never used them, but I think hiding the software installed on a phone at least from the phone manufacturer's view is a very bad idea and I certainly would never buy a phone where I felt 3rd party software could be installed without my knowledge.
Good luck, but prepare for an extreme amount of anger and distrust from your daughter if she finds out she has been spied on. I know I'd be pissed beyond belief, but I've always tried to maintain trust with my parent. A good alibi goes a long way. A poor one does not.
