Privacy Policy · Legal Disclaimer · Terms of Service
Welcome to PuppyHQ ("App", "we", "us", or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal information when you use PuppyHQ. By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Email address — used for authentication, account recovery, and essential communications.
Photos of your pet(s) that you upload within the App.
We use the information we collect to provide, maintain, and improve the App's core functionality; personalise your experience and deliver relevant content; generate AI-powered insights and recommendations (see Section 5); send essential account-related communications; and diagnose technical issues.
Your data is stored using Supabase, a cloud-hosted database platform. Supabase infrastructure is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and employs industry-standard security measures including encryption at rest and in transit. While we take reasonable steps to protect your information, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
PuppyHQ uses OpenAI's API to power AI-driven features such as health tips, activity suggestions, and general pet care recommendations. When you interact with AI features, relevant data (such as your pet's breed, age, or health information) may be sent to OpenAI's servers for processing. We only share the minimum data necessary to generate a response.
Please review OpenAI's Privacy Policy and Usage Policies for details on how they handle data.
We do not sell your personal information. We may share data only in the following circumstances:
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, request correction of inaccurate data, request deletion of your data, export your data in a portable format, and withdraw consent at any time.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@thpuppyhq.com.
We retain your data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymise your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.
PuppyHQ is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected such data, we will delete it promptly.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the updated policy within the App and updating the "Last Updated" date above. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
