Privacy Policy

Effective date: 30 June 2026 · Last updated: 30 June 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Faunify. Faunify ("Faunify", "we", "us" or "our") is an animal care organisation platform designed to help pet owners and caregivers organise feeding schedules, medication reminders, health records, inventory, activity logs, pet sitter access and other animal care information.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, store and protect your personal information when you visit faunify.co, join our waitlist, create a Faunify account, use our website or mobile application, communicate with us, or otherwise interact with Faunify.

We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information responsibly. Although Faunify operates from Australia, our services are available globally. By using Faunify, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

  • Manage reminders, schedules and care records
  • Enable authorised family members or pet sitters to access selected information
  • Process subscriptions and payments
  • Send transactional emails (verification, password resets, account notifications)
  • Send marketing communications where you have chosen to receive them
  • Detect, investigate and prevent fraud, abuse or unauthorised access
  • Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information.

5. Marketing Communications

If you choose to receive updates, you may unsubscribe at any time via the unsubscribe link in our emails or by contacting us. Even if you opt out of marketing, we may continue sending important service-related emails about your account, subscriptions, payments, security or legal notices.

6. Family Members and Pet Sitters

The account owner controls who is invited, which pets are shared, and what permissions are granted. Authorised users may view or contribute information depending on assigned permissions. Owners are responsible for ensuring they only share information with individuals they trust.

7. Third-Party Service Providers

Our service providers include:

  • Base44 — application infrastructure, hosting and authentication
  • Stripe — payment processing, subscription management and fraud prevention
  • Resend — transactional and marketing email delivery

These providers process personal information only to the extent necessary to deliver their services.

8. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Faunify uses cookies necessary for the operation of our services to authenticate users, maintain secure login sessions, process secure payments, and protect against fraud. Some cookies are placed by Base44 and Stripe. At this time, Faunify does not use advertising or behavioural tracking cookies. See our Cookie Policy for full details.

9. International Data Transfers

Because we use cloud-based infrastructure and third-party service providers, your personal information may be transferred to, stored in or processed in countries outside Australia. We take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place.

10. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical, administrative and organisational safeguards including secure authentication, encrypted communications, and access controls. While we take reasonable steps to protect your information, no method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure.

11. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When no longer required, we take reasonable steps to securely delete or de-identify it.

12. Account Deletion

You may delete your account at any time through the application settings. Deletion permanently removes your account, pet profiles, care records, reminders, inventory records, activity logs, shared access information, and uploaded content. Deleting your account also removes you from Faunify marketing communications.

13. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information; withdraw consent; object to or restrict certain processing; and lodge a complaint with a relevant privacy regulator. Contact us at admin@faunify.co to exercise your rights.

14. Children's Privacy

Faunify is not intended for children under the minimum legal age to create an account. We do not knowingly collect personal information from such children. If you believe a child has provided information to Faunify, please contact us.

15. Animal Health Disclaimer

Faunify is an organisational platform and does not provide veterinary, medical, behavioural, nutritional or emergency advice. Information is entered by users and is not reviewed or verified by Faunify. You remain solely responsible for decisions relating to the care and welfare of your animals.

16. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be published on our website with a revised "Last updated" date. Continued use of Faunify after changes are published constitutes acceptance.
