Privacy Policy
TINKL. is a pet-care tracker. It is designed to work offline and to keep your data on your own device by default. This policy explains what is collected when you use optional features such as an account and cloud backup.
1. What stays on your device
Your pets, logs, reminders, medications, vaccinations, weights, notes, photos and settings are stored in your browser or app storage on your device. If you never create an account, none of this is sent to us.
2. What we collect when you use online features
| Data | Why | When |
|---|---|---|
| Email address, optional name | Create and secure your account; sign you in | When you create an account |
| Password | Authentication. It is never stored in readable form — only a salted, peppered hash | When you create an account |
| Terms acceptance (version and time) | Record that you agreed to the Terms and this policy | When you create an account |
| Cloud backup (a snapshot of your pet data, which can include names, breeds, photos, weights, medications, vaccinations, notes and app settings) | Let you restore your data on another device | Only when you tap “Back up” (or auto-backup runs while signed in) |
| Push-notification subscription (endpoint and keys issued by your browser’s push service) | Deliver reminders when the app is closed | Only if you turn push notifications on |
| IP address | Abuse and rate-limit protection. Used transiently; we do not build profiles from it | When you call the API |
We do not use advertising, analytics or tracking scripts, and we do not sell your data. All fonts and libraries are served from our own site; the app makes no requests to third-party trackers.
3. Where data is processed
Our website and API run on Cloudflare (Pages, Workers and Durable Objects). Cloudflare may process and store data in the countries where it operates. Cloudflare also processes standard request metadata (such as IP address) as our infrastructure provider.
4. Vet Pass links
A Vet Pass is a read-only health summary you choose to share. The report is encoded inside the link itself (in the part after “#”, which browsers do not send to servers) and is not stored by us. Anyone who has the link can read the report, and links do not expire — share them only with people you trust, and treat the link like the report itself.
5. How long we keep data
We keep your account and cloud backup until you delete them. In the app, Settings → Account → Delete account permanently removes your account, cloud backup and push subscriptions from active storage immediately. Residual copies may persist briefly in our infrastructure provider’s systems according to its own retention practices. Data on your own devices is not affected; you can erase it with Settings → Reset all data.
6. Your choices and rights
- Access / portability: Settings → Account → Download my data gives you a machine-readable copy of your account and cloud backup. Settings → Export exports your on-device data.
- Deletion: delete your cloud backup or your whole account in the app at any time.
- Correction: edit your data in the app and back up again.
- Other requests: if you are in the EEA/UK or California, you may have additional rights (access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and to complain to a regulator). Contact info@techguruofficial.us.
7. Security
Connections use HTTPS. Passwords are hashed with a salted, peppered key-derivation function. Each account’s data is stored separately and only accessible with that account’s session. Sessions can be revoked (“Sign out everywhere”). No system is perfectly secure; please use a strong, unique password.
8. Children
TINKL. is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA/UK), and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we will delete it.
9. Veterinary clinics
If a clinic uses TINKL. data with a client’s permission, the clinic is responsible for its own handling of that data under its own policies. Pet health information in TINKL. is entered by owners and is not a veterinary medical record.
10. Changes
If we change this policy in a meaningful way we will update the version above and ask you to accept the new version where required.
