Privacy Policy

Effective date: April 9, 2026 · petvalid.com

The short version

PetValid stores your pet's information in a secure cloud database so it can be retrieved via QR code in an emergency. We use no account system, no tracking, and no advertising. Your device is assigned an anonymous ID — we have no way to link it back to you personally.

1. Who We Are

PetValid ("we", "us", "our") is an iOS application that lets pet owners create digital emergency ID cards for their pets. The app is operated by SpellBrew LLC, reachable at support@petvalid.com.

2. Information We Store

When you add a pet, the following information is saved to our cloud database so it can be retrieved by anyone who scans your pet's QR code:

Pet profile: name, species, breed, gender, birth date, color, microchip ID, photo
Owner contact info: name, phone number
Emergency contact: name, phone number
Veterinarian info: name, clinic, phone, address
Medical info: blood type, allergies, conditions, medications, insurance, special notes

✓ No account required · ✓ No email collected · ✓ No analytics · ✓ No advertising identifiers · ✓ No location tracking

3. How Identity Works

PetValid uses an anonymous device identity. When the app first launches, it creates a random ID stored on your device — there is no signup, no password, and no personal account. We have no way to link this ID back to you personally. This anonymous ID is used only to ensure you can manage your own pets and no one else's.

4. Cloud Storage

Your pet data is stored in a cloud database hosted by Supabase, Inc. on infrastructure in the United States (US East). A local copy is also cached on your device so the app works offline and loads instantly.

Our database uses row-level security — each user can only read and modify their own pets. No other user or staff member can browse your data.

5. How QR Code Sharing Works

Each pet has a unique share token. The QR code on your pet's emergency card encodes a link in the form:

https://petvalid.com/pet/<share-token>

Anyone who scans the QR code or opens the link can view that pet's emergency information in any web browser. No login is required to view a shared pet — the share token itself is the access credential. Treat it like a secret URL.

You can rotate the share token at any time from the app, which immediately invalidates any previously printed or shared QR codes.

The public share view excludes your owner email address for privacy.

6. Photos and Camera Access

PetValid may request access to your device's photo library or camera to let you add a photo of your pet. Photos are stored in the cloud database alongside your pet's profile. We never share photos with any third party.

7. In-App Purchases

PetValid offers a Pro upgrade processed entirely through Apple's App Store. We never see or handle your payment details. Apple's privacy policy governs that transaction and can be found at apple.com/legal/privacy.

We store only a simple flag on your device to remember that you have unlocked Pro. No purchase identifiers, receipts, or financial data are stored by the app.

8. Device Permissions

The app may request the following permissions:

Photo Library — to select a pet photo.
Camera — optionally, to take a pet photo directly.

All permissions are requested at the time they are needed and can be revoked at any time in your iOS Settings.

9. Third-Party Services

Supabase, Inc. — cloud database and authentication. Pet profile data is stored on Supabase's infrastructure. See supabase.com/privacy.
Apple — handles in-app purchases. We never see card details.

PetValid does not integrate any analytics, crash-reporting SDKs, advertising networks, or social login services.

10. Children's Privacy

PetValid is intended for adult pet owners. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.

11. Data Security

Your data is protected by Supabase's infrastructure security, encrypted in transit (TLS), and scoped by row-level security policies so only your anonymous device identity can access your pets. The local cache on your device benefits from the same security protections Apple applies to all local app data.

12. Data Deletion

To delete a pet, remove it from inside the app — this deletes both the local copy and the cloud copy immediately. Deleting the app removes all local data.

To request full deletion of any residual cloud data, email privacy@petvalid.com.

13. International Users (GDPR / CCPA)

Your pet data is stored in the United States. Because we use anonymous identifiers with no way to link data back to a real person, the data we store does not constitute "personal data" under most privacy frameworks. You have full control to view, edit, and delete your data directly from the app at any time.

14. Changes to This Policy

If we change this privacy policy, we will update the effective date above and note the change in the app's next update release notes.
