PetPal Pro

Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 17, 2026

1. Introduction

PetPal Pro ("we", "our", "us") is operated by Syed Muhammad Ali Naqvi, a sole proprietor trading as PetPal Pro, with principal place of business at Office # 302, 3rd Floor, 15 Nishter Block, Main Boulevard, Lahore, Pakistan. We provide software that helps independent pet sitters and dog walkers manage clients, bookings, visits, and payments. We are the data controller for the personal data we collect about users of our website and service. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use and share it, and the choices you have.

By creating an account or using our services, you agree to the practices described in this policy. We may update it from time to time; the "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent version.

2. Information We Collect

Account information. When you register, we collect your name, email address, password (stored as a secure hash), phone number, and business name.

Business data you enter. We store the client and pet profiles, bookings, visit reports, notes, and photos you create in the app. This data belongs to you and is used to operate the service you have signed up for.

Location data. When you check in or check out of a visit, we may record your device's GPS coordinates to create location-stamped visit reports.

Payment information. We do not collect or store card numbers. Payments (subscriptions and client booking payments) are processed by Paddle, our Merchant of Record, under Paddle's own terms and privacy policy.

Technical data. We may collect basic usage information such as browser type, device type, IP address, and pages visited, to keep the service secure and improve it.

3. How We Use Your Information

  • To provide, maintain, and improve the service
  • To authenticate your account and keep it secure
  • To send booking confirmations, visit reports, payment links, and service emails
  • To process subscription billing and client payments (via Paddle)
  • To comply with legal obligations and prevent fraud or abuse

Legal bases. We process personal data on the following legal bases: performance of a contract (to provide the service); legitimate interests (security, fraud prevention, and product improvement, where not overridden by your rights); consent (for optional marketing, where we ask for it); and legal obligation (to comply with laws, tax, and accounting requirements).

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with the service providers needed to run the product:

  • Paddle — payment processing and subscription management. Paddle is the Merchant of Record and handles payments, taxes, and refunds for transactions.
  • Hosting and infrastructure providers — the servers that store your data and serve the application.
  • Email delivery providers — to send transactional emails to you and your clients.

We may also disclose information where required by law, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of PetPal Pro, our users, or others.

5. Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period afterward to comply with legal, tax, and accounting obligations. When you request deletion, we remove or anonymize your personal data unless we are legally required to keep it.

6. Security

We use industry-standard measures including encrypted connections (HTTPS), password hashing, and restricted access controls to protect your data. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Cookies. PetPal Pro currently uses only essential, strictly necessary browser storage to keep you signed in. We do not use advertising cookies. If we introduce analytics or marketing cookies in the future, we will update this policy and provide a way to manage your preferences. You can manage or block cookies through your browser settings.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal information, and to object to or restrict certain processing. If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

California residents (CCPA/CPRA): You have the right to know what personal information we collect, to request deletion, and to opt out of any "sale" or "sharing" of your information. We do not sell your personal information.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@petpalpro.shop and we will respond within the timeframe required by law.

8. Children's Privacy

The service is intended for professional pet care providers aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

9. International Data Transfers

Your information may be processed on servers located outside your country of residence, including in the United States. By using the service, you consent to such transfers, and we take reasonable steps to protect your data wherever it is processed.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as the service evolves. Material changes will be reflected by an updated "Last updated" date, and we will notify you by email or through the application where appropriate.
