Who we are

AstroPawz is run from Australia. We make pet horoscopes for fun and are responsible for the information described on this page.

Questions or requests: support@astropawz.app.

If you do not sign in

You can read every sign page, reading and birth chart without an account.

Your pet's name, whether it is a cat or a dog, and its birthday or gotcha day are saved in your browser on your own device, so the site remembers your pet next time. They are not sent to us.

If you sign in

An account is optional. If you make one, we keep:

• Your email address, so you can sign in. If you use Google to sign in, we also receive the identifier Google gives your account. We do not receive your Google password, contacts or anything else.
• Your pets: each pet's name, species and birthday or gotcha day, so your pack follows you between devices.

We do not ask for your name, address, phone number or date of birth.

You need to be 13 or older to make an account (see the terms of use).

Cookies and your device

We set one cookie, and only when you sign in. It keeps you signed in for up to 14 days and is removed when you sign out. Page scripts cannot read it.

We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels or analytics, and we load nothing from other companies' websites.

Your browser's storage on your device also holds your pet, a note that you have signed in on this device, and, while you wait for a sign-in link, the email address you typed. That address is removed when you finish signing in, or after 24 hours.

What we use it for

• Showing your pet's reading and chart.
• Signing you in and keeping your pack together.
• Emailing you the sign-in link you ask for. We send no other email.
• Stopping abuse: before a sign-in link is sent, your browser solves a small puzzle, which takes a moment and sends nothing extra. We keep a scrambled count of sign-in link requests per email address and network address, and a scrambled record of each puzzle solved so it cannot be used twice. Neither can be turned back into an address, and both are deleted within a day of no longer being needed.

We do not sell your information, share it for advertising or use it to build a profile of you.

Who else handles it

AstroPawz runs on Google's Firebase and Google Cloud services, which store account information for us, send the sign-in email and deliver the site. Like any web host, Google keeps routine technical logs of requests, which include network (IP) addresses.

Account information is stored in the United States. Nobody else receives it.

How long we keep it

• Account information: until you delete your account.
• A pet you remove from your pack: deleted from our servers straight away.
• The pet saved in your browser: until you clear your browser's site data, or remove that pet from your pack on that device.

Your choices

• Delete everything. In My pack, choose "Delete account". Your email address and pets are removed from our servers straight away.
• Remove one pet. In My pack, choose "Remove" on that pet.
• Stay signed out. Everything works without an account.
• See or correct what we hold, or complain about how we handled it: email support@astropawz.app. We will answer within 30 days. If you are in Australia and are not satisfied, you can contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.

The shop

The shop is not open yet. When it is, ordering will need a name, a delivery address and a payment, and this page will say how those are handled before we ask for them.

Changes to this page

If what we collect or do changes, we will update this page and the date at the top.
