Privacy

Short version: we keep only what we need, we never sell it, and you can ask us to delete all of it at any time.

What we collect

• Your name, email address, and phone number (for sign-in)
• Your dog’s name, breed, city, age, and story
• Photos you upload of your dog
• Anything you write in posts or comments
• Anonymous usage analytics — which pages get visited, how long members stay, what they click

What we don’t do with it

• We don’t sell it. Not to advertisers, not to partners, not to anyone.
• We don’t hand it to marketing lists.
• We don’t use your posts or photos in content outside the site without asking.
• We don’t keep your data after you delete your account.

What we do with it

• We use it to run the site — show your dog’s profile, match you to your archetype, let other members find your family.
• We use anonymous analytics to understand which parts of the site are working.
• If we ever launch a related product line (we plan to), we will tell you openly and ask for your explicit consent before using your data for it.

Your rights

• Access every piece of data we hold about you
• Correct anything that’s wrong
• Delete your account and all associated data, any time, no questions asked
• Export everything you’ve ever posted

How we keep it safe

All data is stored in a managed Postgres database (Supabase, hosted in Mumbai). Authentication is handled with industry-standard OAuth and phone-based one-time passwords. We enforce row-level security at the database layer — meaning even a bug in our app can’t leak one member’s data to another.
