Welcome to Dog & Puppy Training: Pawsy. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application ("App").
By using Pawsy, you agree to the practices described in this policy. Pawsy is designed as a privacy-first, local-first application.
Most of the data you provide is stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
Pet Profile: Name, breed, age, and photo of your pet.
App Progress: Lessons completed, badges earned, streak status, and gem balance.
User Preferences: Settings and notification preferences.
We use trusted third-party services to provide specific features (Subscriptions, AI Chat, Video Playback). These services may process limits amounts of data:
Subscription Data (Adapty/Apple/Google): Transaction receipts and subscription status. We do not process or store your credit card information directly.
AI Chat Data (Google Gemini): Text queries you send to the AI Dog Trainer and relevant context (e.g., pet age/breed) to generate helpful responses. This data is processed by Google's API but is not used by us to train models or identifying you personally.
Usage Analytics (Anonymous): Non-personally identifiable data (e.g., crash reports, screen views) to improve app stability.
To Provide Services: Storing your progress and customizing the training plan locally.
To Enable AI Features: Sending your training questions to the AI provider (Google Gemini) to generate answers.
To Manage Subscriptions: Verifying your Premium status via store receipts.
We share data with the following third-party providers solely for the purpose of operating the App:
We use Google's Generative AI (Gemini) to power our AI Dog Trainer chat.
Note: We do not send personally identifiable user data (like your name or specific location) to the AI, only pet details and your training questions.
Our lessons utilize embedded YouTube videos. By using the video features, you are agreeing to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service.
We use Adapty to handle in-app purchase validation.
Local Data: Since your data is stored on your device, you have full control. Uninstalling the App will permanently delete all local data (progress, pet profile, photos).
In-App Reset: You can use the "Reset All Data" option in Settings to wipe your local progress immediately.
AI Data: We do not retain history of your AI conversations on our servers.
Pawsy is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date.
