GroomCard
Privacy Policy
Effective date: 26 August 2026
GroomCard is available on iPhone and Android. It stores grooming records on your device. On iPhone, records can optionally sync through your private iCloud account. The developer does not collect your app records.
1. Information you add to GroomCard
You may enter client contact details, dog profiles, grooming specifications, temperament, allergy and handling notes, visit history, prices, reminders and photos. This information is stored on your device.
On iPhone, if iCloud is enabled and available, Apple may sync it between your devices using GroomCard's private CloudKit database in your iCloud account. Android keeps records on the device; GroomCard does not operate a cloud sync service on Android.
2. Data collected by the developer
The developer does not collect, receive, sell or use the records you store in GroomCard. The app has no GroomCard account system and does not include advertising, third-party analytics or cross-app tracking SDKs.
3. Photos
On iPhone, GroomCard uses Apple's system photo picker when you choose photos for a dog or visit. On Android, GroomCard uses the Android Photo Picker. In both cases, the selected images are copied into your GroomCard records. The developer does not receive those images.
4. Rebooking notifications
GroomCard may request notification permission so your iPhone or Android device can deliver rebooking reminders you create. Reminder scheduling is performed on the device using the platform notification system. The developer does not send push messages from a GroomCard server.
5. iCloud (iPhone)
Optional iCloud sync is provided by Apple and is subject to Apple's terms and privacy practices. GroomCard uses a private CloudKit database associated with your iCloud account; it does not operate a separate developer server for your grooming records. This option is not available on Android.
6. Purchases
GroomCard Lifetime is a one-time unlock processed by the store you use:
- On iPhone, Apple processes the purchase through the App Store.
- On Android, Google processes the purchase through Google Play Billing.
The store handles payment information and purchase history. GroomCard receives the verified entitlement required to unlock unlimited dogs but does not receive your payment-card details. An iPhone purchase does not unlock Android, and an Android purchase does not unlock iPhone.
7. Exports and sharing
GroomCard creates CSV and PDF files on your device when you request an export or customer report card. If you save or share a file through the standard iOS or Android sharing interface, the destination you select controls that copy under its own privacy practices.
8. Retention and deletion
Your records remain until you delete them in GroomCard or remove the app and its data. On iPhone, corresponding iCloud copies can be managed through your iCloud account. GroomCard provides export controls so you can keep a portable copy before deleting records.
9. Website and support email
This website does not include advertising or analytics. It is hosted by GitHub Pages, so GitHub may process technical information needed to deliver the site under the GitHub General Privacy Statement.
If you email support.groomcard@gmail.com, Google processes the information included in your message under its own terms. Support correspondence is used to answer your request, investigate reported problems and maintain reasonable support records. Do not send client records or pet photos unless specifically requested and you are comfortable sharing them.
10. Children
GroomCard is a professional record-keeping tool for pet groomers and is not directed to children.
11. Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated if GroomCard's features or data practices change. The effective date above will be updated when material changes are published.
