4. Sharing Your Information

We share personal data with third parties, including for commercial purposes. This includes the following categories of recipients:

Advertising partners

We share data with advertising companies to enable targeted advertising on and off the App. This may include your device identifiers, usage patterns, and demographic information. These partners use the data to deliver ads relevant to your interests and to measure ad performance.

Research organizations

We share data with academic and commercial research organizations for market research, behavioral studies, and product development purposes. Data shared for research may include usage data, demographic information, and aggregated behavioral patterns.

Analytics companies

We share data with third-party analytics providers beyond Google Analytics for deeper analysis of App usage, user behavior modeling, and business intelligence. These companies may combine our data with data from other sources.

Other sharing

  • Service providers and subprocessors that help us operate the App

  • Affiliates or related companies

  • Successors in case of merger, acquisition, or sale of assets

  • Law enforcement, regulators, or courts when legally required or to protect rights and safety

Current major subprocessors (as of May 2026)

  • Cloud storage: Google Cloud Firestore — data stored in US regions

  • Analytics: Google Analytics

  • Advertising: third-party ad networks (list available upon request)

  • Research: commercial and academic research partners (list available upon request)

We ensure subprocessors are bound by data processing agreements that protect your information.

5. Data Sales and Commercial Sharing (CCPA)

We sell and share personal information with third parties, including advertising networks, research organizations, and analytics companies, for commercial consideration. This constitutes a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA).

California residents have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of their personal information. To exercise this right, contact us at onepawsupport@gmail.com or visit the privacy settings within the App.

6. International Data Transfers

Your data may be transferred to and processed in the United States or other countries outside your residence. For transfers from the EEA/UK to countries without an adequacy decision, we use safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent mechanisms.

7. Data Retention

  • Account data and user notes: 365 days from last activity or until you request deletion (whichever comes first)

  • Analytics data (pseudonymized): up to 365 days

  • Data shared with advertising and research partners may be retained by those partners per their own policies

After the applicable retention period, we permanently delete or irreversibly anonymize the data we hold.

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

  • Access your data

  • Correct inaccurate data

  • Delete your data

  • Restrict processing

  • Data portability

  • Object to processing, including for commercial data sharing

  • Opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information (California residents)

  • Withdrawal of consent where processing is consent-based

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at onepawsupport@gmail.com. We respond to verifiable requests within the time required by law (usually 30–45 days).

EU/UK residents may lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
