Privacy Policy

You're a dog parent who downloaded a dog-parent app. We collect what we need to make Puppii useful for your specific dog (their profile, your conversations, your photos if you choose to add them) and nothing else. We never sell your data. We share it only with the companies we genuinely need to operate the service and to measure our advertising (Apple, OpenAI, Supabase, Vercel, RevenueCat, AppsFlyer, Meta). You can delete your account and data any time, and you control ad tracking from the prompt we show you when you first open the app.

Puppii ("we," "us," or "our") is operated by Party Animal LLC, the company behind getpartyanimal.com. You can reach us at aaron@getpartyanimal.com any time.

Account info. When you sign in with Apple, we receive a unique identifier and (if you choose to share it) your email. We don't ask for a password because Apple handles authentication.

Dog profile. Anything you tell Puppii about your dog: name, breed, age, weight, energy level, personality traits, the parenting challenges you mention.

Conversation data. The questions you ask Puppii and the responses we generate. Plus any facts Puppii extracts from your conversations to remember about your dog (e.g., "Luna doesn't like fireworks").

Photos. If you upload photos to the photo books or scanning features, we store them associated with your dog's profile.

Walk and activity data. If you use the Walk feature, we collect duration, distance, and route data only while you're using it.

Subscription info. Whether you're on the monthly or annual plan, and whether it's active. We don't see your card or payment details — Apple handles that.

Usage data. Crash logs, anonymous performance metrics, and app feature usage so we can fix bugs and improve the product.

Advertising and attribution data. If you allow tracking when we ask, we and our advertising partners receive device and app-event signals (such as installing the app, finishing setup, or subscribing) so we can measure which ads actually work. If you decline, we still measure installs and events in a privacy-preserving, aggregated way that isn't tied to your device's advertising identifier. Either way, every feature of Puppii works exactly the same.

We use your data to:

• Provide the Puppii service (chat, walks, photo books, scanning, Personality Snapshot)
• Personalize your AI conversations using your dog's profile and history
• Process your subscription and provide customer support
• Detect bugs, performance issues, and abuse
• Send you product updates if you've opted in (you can opt out any time)

We don't use your data to train any AI models, and we never sell it. We do share limited app-event and device signals with our advertising partners to measure our own ads — see "Advertising and tracking" below. We never share your dog's profile, your conversations, or your photos with advertisers.

We share data only with the service providers we need to operate Puppii:

• OpenAI — processes the AI conversations. Your messages and dog profile context are sent to OpenAI's API to generate responses. OpenAI's policy applies to that data.
• Supabase — stores your account, dog profile, and conversation history in an encrypted database.
• Vercel — hosts the application infrastructure.
• Apple (App Store + Sign in with Apple) — handles authentication and subscription billing.
• RevenueCat — manages subscription state and trial tracking.
• Sentry / analytics — anonymous error tracking and crash reporting.
• AppsFlyer — measures which ads led to app installs and in-app events, so we know where to spend.
• Meta (Facebook/Instagram) — receives app events (install, setup completed, subscribed) to measure and optimize the ads we run on their platforms.
• Open Pet Food Facts / Open Food Facts — when you scan a product barcode, we send that barcode number to these open databases to look up the product. No personal or dog data is sent with it.

We do not sell your personal data to anyone, ever. We never share your dog's profile, your conversations, or your photos with advertisers — the only things our advertising partners receive are the device and app-event signals described in "Advertising and tracking" below.

We run ads for Puppii on Meta (Facebook and Instagram) and we need to know which of them actually bring in dog parents. That measurement is the only reason any advertising partner receives anything from us.

The prompt you see. When you first open Puppii, iOS asks whether you'll allow us to track you across other companies' apps and websites. That's Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt, and the choice is entirely yours.

• If you allow it, we and our partners (AppsFlyer and Meta) may use your device's advertising identifier to connect an ad you saw to an action you took in Puppii.
• If you decline, we don't use your advertising identifier at all. We still count installs and events in an aggregated form that Apple provides, which can't be traced back to you.

What is never shared. Your dog's profile, your conversations with Puppii, your photos, and your scan results are never sent to any advertising partner, whatever you choose.

You can change your mind at any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.

We keep your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we delete your dog profile, conversation history, and photos from our active systems within 30 days, and from backups within 90 days.

You can do all of the following from the Profile tab in the app, or by emailing us:

• Access a copy of your data
• Correct inaccurate data
• Delete specific facts Puppii has remembered about your dog
• Delete your entire account and all associated data
• Export your conversation history
• Opt out of product update emails

California residents have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the CPRA. You can request to know what data we've collected, request deletion, and opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information. We do not sell your personal information. We do share limited app-event and device signals with advertising partners for measurement, which California law may treat as "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising — declining the tracking prompt, or emailing us, opts you out of it. Email aaron@getpartyanimal.com to exercise any of these rights.

If you're in the EU or UK, you have rights under GDPR including access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and objection. Our legal basis for processing your data is the performance of the contract you have with us (the Puppii service). Email us to exercise these rights.

Puppii is intended for adult dog parents (18 and older). We don't knowingly collect data from anyone under 13. If you believe a child has used Puppii, contact us and we'll delete the data immediately.

We use industry-standard practices: data encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest, row-level security on the database (you can only access your own data), no payment data ever touches our servers, and authentication is delegated to Apple. No system is perfectly secure, but we work hard to keep yours private.

If we change this policy in a way that affects your rights, we'll notify you in the app and via email if you've shared one. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent version.
