Each provider operates under its own privacy policy. Using FurNote implies consent to the data flows described above.

5. Data Sharing

We only share your data with veterinarians or third parties when you explicitly export or share it. We never sell, rent, or provide your personal data to marketing partners.

6. Cookies & Tracking

  • Essential cookies: maintain your signed-in session and language preference

We do not use advertising cookies, do not sell data to ad networks, and do not perform cross-site tracking.

7. Data Retention & Deletion

  • Your data is retained in Supabase while your account is active. Export it any time via Settings → Export (CSV or PDF).
  • After requesting deletion, your account enters a 30-day retention window (you cannot sign in during this period). To cancel deletion, email [email protected] within those 30 days.
  • After 30 days your account, all pet records, uploaded photos, and personal data are permanently deleted.
  • Google Analytics anonymous data is auto-purged after GA4's default 14-month retention.
