Pawfolio: Pet Health Records ("Pawfolio," "we," "our," or "us") is designed to help you privately organize your pet's health records. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the Pawfolio application (the "App").
Depending on how you use the App, the following information may be stored or processed:
We use information to:
The App is a record-keeping tool for pet owners. It is not a veterinary medical device, does not diagnose conditions, and does not replace advice from a licensed veterinarian. Always confirm important health decisions, medication doses, vaccine schedules, and due dates with your veterinarian.
The optional Health Assistant uses Apple's Foundation Models framework and Apple's on-device system language model. It processes the pet name, symptom categories you select, owner-rated severity, duration, emergency warning signs, optional owner notes, and the App's deterministic triage recommendation solely on your device.
Health Assistant inputs and responses are not sent to the developer, any cloud AI service, or any third party for AI processing, and are not used for training. If Apple's on-device model is unavailable, the App generates a deterministic local summary instead. If you explicitly save a summary to the journal and enable iCloud sync, that saved record may sync through your private Apple iCloud account.
We do not sell personal information, use third-party AI services, or share pet records with the developer or third parties. The App interacts with Apple services only in these circumstances:
Pet records are primarily stored on your device. If you enable iCloud sync, your data may sync through your personal iCloud account using Apple's services. We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information, but no electronic storage or transmission method is completely secure.
The App is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
You can change app settings, notification permissions, and device permissions at any time through the App or your device settings. You can also edit or delete pet records in the App where supported.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page with the latest update date.
