Privacy, plain and simple

Last updated: July 1, 2026

Corgi Quest is a small product. We collect only what we need to run the app and site, improve them, and stay in touch if you join the waitlist. We are not in the business of reselling your dog’s information or your contact list.

For rules about using the service, see our Terms of Service.

In three bullets

• We save account and in-app data when you use the mobile app (profile, dogs, training logs, quests, journal, coach chat), waitlist email, basic analytics, crash reports, and a hashed form of your email for optional web AI sitter image limits.
• We do not store your Sitter sheet, your dog’s care notes, or your phone/vet/insurance details on our servers for the free web tools. Those live in your browser unless you put them in a link yourself.
• Why so the product works, improves gently, and you are not trusting us with data we do not need.

What we store on the website

• Waitlist and contact. If you sign up, we use your email to add you to our list and, where applicable, to tools like HubSpot. You can ask to be removed; see Contact below.
• Analytics (PostHog). On the website we use page views and custom events. Autocapture and session recording are off for this site. We do not intentionally send the contents of form fields in analytics.
• Sitter image quota. If you use the optional AI sitter image on the web tool, we store a SHA-256 hash of a normalized “email string” in our backend to enforce fair-use limits — not a readable copy of your email in that table.
• Feedback. Messages you send through our web feedback forms are stored so we can read them. Do not put secrets there.

Sitter sheet tool

The Sitter sheet stores your draft in your browser’s storage (e.g. localStorage). It does not send your full form to our servers. When you copy a share link, the data is in the fragment of the URL (the part after #) so it is not sent to our web server in the normal request and is less likely to appear in server access logs. Anyone with the link can read what you encoded — share it only with people you trust.

Print or save as PDF uses your browser’s print dialog. The printable layout is built in a hidden frame in your current tab (nothing is uploaded to our servers). Use “Save as PDF” (or your OS equivalent) in that dialog to get a file. The optional AI-generated graphic sends your dog’s care information to OpenAI’s image API to draw the page. We do not send your phone number, backup contact, vet name/address, emergency vet, or insurance into that prompt; those are replaced with write-in lines on the image so you can fill them in by hand. Read OpenAI’s policies for how they process API data.

Other free tools

Our tools hub lists everything that runs in the browser with no account. That includes the noise desensitizer, the training clicker, and the sitter sheet. Any feedback you send through our forms is stored so we can read it; do not put secrets there.

Mobile app

When you sign in and use the Corgi Quest mobile app, we process account and product data through our backend provider Convex (hosted in the United States). This is separate from the free browser tools above.

Account and sign-in

You can sign in with Sign in with Apple or Google. We receive basic profile information from those providers (such as your name and email, depending on what you approve). We store sign-in session data so you stay logged in securely. We do not receive your Apple or Google password.

Data we store for you

• Profile — display name, email, and optional profile image from your sign-in provider.
• Dogs — name, breed, age, traits, goals, XP, level, stats, cosmetics, avatar image URL, and notes you add during onboarding (for example a short “hope” note).
• Training sessions — activity type, duration, intensity, tags, XP gains, timestamps, and optional voice or manual notes you log.
• Quests — daily and weekly quest progress, completions, and swap history.
• Journal — adventure-log entries generated from your activity, including reflections, moods, and tags.
• Coach chat — messages you send to the in-app coach and the replies we generate for you.
• Settings — notification preferences, coaching style, units, streak pause state, and similar app preferences.

Photos

If you choose to add a dog photo (for example for avatar generation), the app uses your device’s photo library via expo-image-picker. We upload the image only when you confirm, store it as a URL in our backend or object storage, and use it to display or generate your dog’s avatar. You can skip photos entirely.

Push notifications

If you opt in, we store a device push token and your notification preferences (daily quests, training reminders, streaks, milestones, tips, quiet hours). You can turn notifications off in iOS/Android settings or in the app. Push delivery goes through Apple (APNs) and/or Google (FCM) depending on your device.

Analytics and crashes

• PostHog — product analytics (for example which screens you use and key events). We configure this to avoid collecting more than we need; we do not use it to read your private journal text or coach messages.
• Sentry — crash and error reports so we can fix bugs. Reports may include device type, app version, and technical stack traces. We work to avoid attaching personal content to crash reports.

AI processing

Several features send text (and sometimes images) to OpenAI or similar model providers through our API layer: voice log parsing, coach chat, journal enrichment, and avatar generation. We send only what is needed for each feature. AI output is not veterinary or professional training advice — see our Terms of Service. Read the provider’s policies for how they handle API data.

Retention and deletion

We keep your data while your account is active so the app can show your history and progress. You can request account deletion in Settings or by emailing support@corgiquest.com. We will delete or anonymize your app data within a reasonable period, except where we must keep limited records for security, legal compliance, or dispute resolution.

Subprocessors

We use trusted vendors to run Corgi Quest. They process data on our behalf under their own terms and privacy policies:

Cookies and similar tech

PostHog may set a first-party identifier so we can tell returning visitors from new ones. You can use normal browser controls to block or clear cookies.

Your choices and California privacy (CCPA)

Where the law gives you rights (for example access, correction, deletion, or portability), we will honor reasonable requests. If you are a California resident, you may have rights to know what personal information we collect, request deletion, and opt out of “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. We do not sell your personal information. To exercise these rights, email support@corgiquest.com. We may need to verify your request. If you are on the waitlist and want to be removed, email us — same address.

This policy is not legal advice; a lawyer can help if you need formal language for your region.

Children

Corgi Quest is aimed at adults responsible for a dog’s care. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The app is not designed for kids. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us data, contact support@corgiquest.com and we will delete it promptly.

Changes

We will update this page when practices change. For material changes, we will do our best to make them obvious (and bump the “last updated” date). Significant app changes may also be noted in-app or by email.
