Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how the iOS application Whisker Check: Cat Comfort ("the App"), developed by Vilva Athiban P B ("we", "us"), handles your information. The short version: we do not collect any data ourselves. There is no account, no sign-up, no analytics and no server of ours that the App talks to. The free version shows a banner ad served by Google AdMob (see section 3); the one-time unlock removes it.

1. Data that stays on your device

The App keeps your cats' names, every comfort check and mood read, your notes, optional photos and reminder times in its own storage on your device. Vet reports are PDF files created on the device and only leave it when you share them yourself. Everything is included in your iCloud or device backup if you have backups enabled, which is governed by Apple's privacy policy. We never receive any of it.

2. Purchases

The optional one-time unlock is processed entirely by Apple through the App Store. We receive no name, email address or payment details from the transaction.

3. Advertising

The free version shows a small banner ad from Google AdMob on menu screens only, never during a call, game, photo or check. To serve it, Google may collect device identifiers other than the advertising ID, coarse location derived from your IP address, ad interaction data and performance and crash diagnostics, and may use them for advertising, analytics and fraud prevention as described in the Google Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services. The App requests non-personalised ads only, never asks for permission to track you, and does not access the advertising identifier. In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland a consent form is shown before any ad loads, and "Privacy options" in Settings lets you change your choice at any time. The one-time unlock removes the banner and stops all ad requests. We receive no personal data from Google.

4. Permissions

The App asks for the camera and photo library only if you choose to attach a photo to a check, and for notifications only if you turn on reminders. Reminders are scheduled on the device; no server is involved. Every permission can be declined.

5. Children

The App is meant to be used by adults. It is not directed at children. We collect no information from anyone, and ads are limited to general-audience (G-rated) content on screens meant for adults.

6. Changes

If a future version ever changes how the App handles data, this page will be updated and the date at the top revised before that version is released.
