Privacy Policy

Pawprint Log · Effective date: October 31, 2026

Pawprint Log ("the app") is a pet care log published by Noushad Vali Shaik ("we", "us"). This policy explains what happens to your information. The short version: your pet data stays on your device (and, if you leave iCloud Backup on, in your own private iCloud), there are no accounts, and we do not track you.

What we collect

We never receive your pet data. We run no servers for the app and there are no user accounts. Everything you enter — pet profiles, photos, feeding, walk, medication and vet logs, weights, reminders and notes — is stored on your device, in the app's private storage, and (if iCloud Backup is on) backed up to your own private iCloud.

Data on your device

• Pet profiles, logs, weights and reminders are stored locally. Deleting the app, or using Settings → Delete all data, removes them from the device.
• Expenses and documents you add (Pro) are stored locally too. Documents you pick are copied into the app's private storage; the app only accesses files you explicitly choose.
• Free-trial start date: the app stores the date of your first launch (in the iOS Keychain on your device) to count the 14-day Pro trial. It is not sent anywhere and contains no personal information.
• Photos you choose for a pet are copied into the app's private storage. The app only accesses photos you explicitly pick; it does not read your photo library in the background.
• Notifications are scheduled locally on your device. No push-notification server is used and no notification data leaves your device.
• Exports (JSON backup and PDF vet record) are created on your device. They go wherever you choose to share them (for example Mail, Files or AirDrop). We never receive them.

iCloud Backup

If you are signed in to iCloud, the app automatically backs up your pet data (pets, logs, custom types, reminders, photos and documents) to your own private iCloud storage in Apple's iCloud, so you can restore it after reinstalling or on a new device. This backup is stored in your Apple account, protected by Apple, and is only accessible to you through the app. We never receive it and cannot access it. You can turn iCloud Backup off at any time in Settings → iCloud Backup; you can remove the stored backup in iOS Settings → [your name] → iCloud → Manage Storage. See Apple's privacy policy at apple.com/legal/privacy.

Purchases

The optional one-time "Pro" unlock is processed by Apple through the App Store. We use RevenueCat (revenuecat.com), a purchase-management service, to verify that the purchase happened and to restore it on your devices. RevenueCat receives an anonymous app user identifier and Apple's purchase receipt data (your purchase history for this app). It does not receive your pet data, name, email or any content from the app. See RevenueCat's privacy policy at https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy for details. We do not receive your payment information; Apple handles it.

Anonymous usage analytics

To understand which features are used, the app sends anonymous usage events to TelemetryDeck (telemetrydeck.com), a privacy-focused analytics service:

• What is sent: product-interaction events such as "app opened", "entry logged" or "paywall shown", with simple non-personal details (for example the type of entry or pet species), plus technical details needed to process them (a random per-session ID, a timestamp and the analytics library version).
• Identifier: a random ID generated once when the app is installed and stored only on your device. It is hashed before it is sent. It is not your Apple ID, not the advertising identifier (IDFA), and cannot be used to identify you.
• What is never sent: pet names, notes, photos, documents, phone numbers, your name, email or any other personal data.
• This data is not linked to your identity and is not used for tracking.

See TelemetryDeck's privacy policy at https://telemetrydeck.com/privacy/ for details.

Tracking and advertising

The app contains no advertising and no third-party trackers, and does not use the advertising identifier. We do not sell or share personal data, and we do not track you across other companies' apps or websites.

Children

The app is a general-audience utility and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone.

Your choices and rights

Because we hold no copy of your pet data (your iCloud backup belongs to your Apple account, not to us), you control all of it: export it, edit it or delete it from within the app at any time.

Changes

If this policy changes, we will update the date above and, for material changes, note it in the app's release notes.
