Fetch

Privacy Policy

Last updated 19 September 2026

Fetch ("we") is a pet identity and community registry for India. This policy explains what we collect, why, who we share it with, and how you can delete it.

Information we collect

  • Account: email address and name. If you sign in with Google or Apple, we get them from that account; Sign in with Apple can give us a private relay address instead of your real email.
  • Pet profiles:pet name, breed, colour, gender, approximate age, photos, optional medical notes, and the emergency contact phone number you choose to publish on the pet's tag.
  • Location:places you pick on a map — where your pet lives or was last seen, or where a community dog was spotted — and, only if you allow it, your device's location: to fill in that spot, to sort vets by distance, and to record a walk's route while you are tracking the walk. We never track your location in the background.
  • Found-dog reports:a photo, description, the finder's contact detail, and the found location. These can be filed without an account.
  • Usage & device data: basic analytics events and device/browser info via PostHog and Vercel Analytics.

How we use it

To run your pet's ID card and QR tag, power the scan-to-reunite emergency page, send lost/found and care-reminder notifications, operate the optional vet-clinic and community-dog features, and improve the product. The AI pet assistant sends your question and the selected pet's profile to our AI provider to generate cautious, non-medical guidance; it does not diagnose or prescribe. Scanning a vaccination card sends the photo and your pet's name to the same provider to read the entries; we don't keep the photo. Both ask for your permission before anything is sent.

Who we share it with (processors)

  • Supabase — database, authentication, photo storage.
  • Vercel — hosting and Vercel Analytics.
  • PostHog — product analytics.
  • Resend — transactional email (alerts, reminders).
  • OpenAI — powers the AI pet assistant and vaccination-card reading.
  • Google and Apple — sign-in, if you choose to use them.
  • Google Maps Platform — maps and locality lookup.

We do not sell your personal data. We never show a pet owner's name, email, or home address on any public page — the public emergency page exposes only the pet's details and the emergency phone you chose to publish.

Data retention & deletion

We keep your data while your account is active. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time from Profile → Delete account inside the app, or by requesting deletion at fetchtag.in/legal/delete-account. Deletion removes your profile, pets, photos, and reports; it cannot be undone.

Children

Fetch is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their data.
