Last updated: September 4, 2026

Welcome to TailTale AI - Smart Pet Care ("App", "we", "us", or "our"), developed by Lyviq AI We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring you have a positive experience when using our application. This Privacy Policy outlines our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data when you use our App and the choices you have associated with that data.

By using TailTale AI, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We only collect information that is strictly necessary to provide and enhance the features of the App:

A. Photos and Camera Data

• Pet Photos: When you capture or upload photos of your pet for mood scanning, vibe analysis, or story creation, the image is processed to detect pet features, moods, and characteristics.

• Camera and Media Library Access: With your explicit permission, the App accesses your device camera and gallery solely to allow you to take or pick photos of your pets. We do not access any other media files or unrelated photos on your device.

B. In-App Purchase and Transaction Data

• When you purchase in-app items (such as Vibe Passes or Treat Packs), transactions are processed directly by Google Play Billing and managed via RevenueCat.

• We do not collect, store, or process your credit card numbers, bank account numbers, or billing addresses. RevenueCat and Google Play provide us only with anonymous purchase identifiers, entitlements, and transaction timestamps to unlock purchased digital features.

C. Device and Usage Information

• Technical Data: Standard non-identifying diagnostic information (such as device model, operating system version, crash reports, and performance metrics) may be processed to ensure stability and troubleshoot bugs.

2. How We Process and Use Your Information

We use the collected information for the following purposes:

• AI Analysis & Features: To generate breed suggestions, mood estimations, pet vibe descriptions, and creative stories using on-device ML models and secure AI processing APIs (such as Google Gemini API).

• Feature Unlocking: To verify and restore your active subscriptions and in-app purchases.

• Saving & Sharing: To allow you to save generated pet cards, badges, and stories locally to your device or share them with friends.

• App Stability: To diagnose crashes, fix bugs, and optimize app performance across different Android devices.

3. Artificial Intelligence & Third-Party Service Providers

To provide AI analysis and billing services, we partner with reputable third-party providers who adhere to strict data security standards:

• Google Play Services & Billing: Manages native in-app subscriptions and transactions (Google Privacy Policy).

• Google Cloud / Gemini API & ML Kit: Processes pet imagery and prompts strictly to return pet analysis, breed identification, and stories. Photos are not used to train public models or shared with third parties for advertising.

• RevenueCat: Manages in-app subscription status and receipts (RevenueCat Privacy Policy).

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information or pet photos to third-party advertisers or data brokers.

4. Data Storage and Retention

• Local Storage: Pet profiles, saved stories, and scan histories are stored locally on your device unless you choose to delete them or uninstall the App.

• Ephemeral AI Processing: Photos submitted for AI vibe analysis are processed transiently in memory to generate your result and are not permanently archived on external public servers.

5. Children's Privacy

TailTale AI is intended for general audiences and does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13 (or the minimum applicable age in your jurisdiction). If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at aryagames2023@gmail.com, and we will promptly remove such information.

6. Security of Your Data

The security of your data is important to us. We implement industry-standard administrative and technical safeguards (such as HTTPS/TLS encryption for all data in transit) to protect any information transmitted through the App. However, please remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.

7. Your Rights & Data Deletion

You have the right to:

• Deny or revoke camera/photo permissions at any time through your Android device settings.

• Delete any saved pet photos, profiles, or stories directly within the App or by clearing the App data in your device settings.

• Request clarification or deletion of any support correspondence by contacting us via email.
