Privacy Policy

1. Zero Video Retention (Privacy First)

When you record or select a video of your resting dog or cat in Vetalytics, the video stream is uploaded over encrypted HTTPS solely to compute your pet's resting respiratory rate (breaths per minute) using computer-vision optical flow. Videos are processed ephemerally and deleted immediately after analysis completes. Vetalytics never stores, shares, or sells your videos or camera footage.

2. Data We Store

• Pet Profiles & Breathing History: Pet names, species, optional breed/age notes, and compact numerical breathing rate summaries (BPM, timestamp, clinical range, and normalized waveform curves) are stored locally on your device and synced to Google Firebase Firestore so you can track trends and export veterinary PDF reports.
• Optional Account Linking: You may use Vetalytics without signing in (via an anonymous cloud backup session) or optionally link your Google or Apple account to back up and restore your pet profiles across devices. When linked, we store your authentication identifier and email address strictly for account recovery and subscription management.
• Subscriptions: Optional Vetalytics Pro purchases are processed directly by Google Play Billing or Apple In-App Purchase. Vetalytics never receives or stores your credit card or payment details.

3. Device Permissions

• Camera (android.permission.CAMERA): Used exclusively when you initiate a breathing scan to measure chest/flank movement.
• No Audio, Location, or Ad Tracking: Vetalytics does not record microphone audio, does not collect GPS location, and contains zero third-party advertising SDKs.

4. Veterinary Disclaimer

Vetalytics is an informational home-monitoring tool for pet owners and is not a substitute for professional veterinary diagnosis or emergency care. Always consult a licensed veterinarian if your pet exhibits elevated breathing effort or distress.

5. Account & Data Deletion

You can permanently delete your account, pet profiles, and all cloud breathing readings at any time directly inside the app under Settings → Account & Cloud Backup → Delete Account & Cloud Data, or via our Account & Data Deletion page.
