Privacy Policy

Accounts, profiles, and listings

We use the account information you provide, including email, kennel name, location, photos, social links, and listing details, to operate PupVault. Kennel profiles and published listings are visible to visitors. Private payment instructions are not public and are revealed to the buyer after signing a Bill of Sale. Lovable Cloud provides account sign-in, database hosting, and private file storage. If you use Google sign-in, Google and the sign-in service handle the information necessary to authenticate you.

Messages and signed agreements

We store buyer and breeder messages, agreement acknowledgments, buyer contact details, signatures, agreed prices, signing timestamps, and signed PDFs. Agreement records also include the signing IP address and browser information for record-keeping. Messages are accessible to the participating buyer and breeder; breeders can access their agreement archive. Buyers receive a private PDF download link. Buyer and breeder notification emails contain agreement summaries and time-limited PDF links, delivered through Lovable's email service. A recipient can retain or share a downloaded agreement; protect your link and copies.

Software payments and external services

Stripe receives payment and billing information for PupVault subscriptions and listing boosts. We store subscription and transaction references and status, not full payment-card details. Puppy payments are arranged separately between users; payment apps receive the information you give them. Financing and social links take you to external services, which handle your data under their own privacy policies.

Browser storage and fonts

Sign-in uses browser storage to maintain your session. Saved puppies are stored on your device, and a temporary destination is stored in your browser to return you after sign-in. These are separate from visitor analytics. Google Fonts receives requests from your browser to load the site's fonts, including the connection information needed to deliver them.

Visitor analytics

This site has no analytics consent banner. Clicks on buttons and links are recorded for every visitor; a click is identified by its position on the page, not its text. Page visits, time on page, page speed, and errors are also recorded for every visitor, without cookies and without identifying anyone.

Lovable's analytics uses no cookies, stores nothing on the visitor's device, does not keep IP addresses, and does not identify visitors. It records pages visited, where visitors came from, country, browser, operating system, device type, how long visitors stay, how fast pages load, and errors. Detailed data is kept for 90 days and daily summaries for a year.

Lovable collects this data for us. Lovable's privacy policy explains how it handles it.

Business Transfers & Acquisitions

User accounts, kennel profiles, messages, listing data, signed agreement records, and active subscription information may be transferred or sold as part of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or asset sale, including a sale of pupvault.net and the platform. An acquiring entity may receive this information to continue operating the service. Any transfer remains subject to applicable privacy law, required notices or consent, and protections for existing data; this section does not waive those rights.

Retention and your rights

Account, message, listing, payment-status, and contract information is kept as needed to provide the service, maintain transaction records, resolve disputes, and meet legal obligations. Access, correction, deletion, and other privacy rights depend on applicable law; some records may need to be retained for legal reasons. You can update your kennel profile and listings in your account. Changes to this policy remain subject to any notice or consent required by law.
