Privacy & Promise

Our Promise to You and Your Dog

Privacy built by a local dog parent, not a data broker.

The Too Long; Didn't Read Version

We don't want your data; we want your dog to have a good walk. No names, no phone numbers, and your check-ins vanish after you leave.

1. No Creep-Factor Tracking

We use your location only to show you the closest dog parks in the Edmonton area. Unlike other apps, we don't track your movement in the background or sell your walk patterns to advertisers. When you close the tab, the tracking stops.

2. Anonymous Check-ins

When you check in to a park like Riverside or Leduc North, other users see only the vibe of the park, not your identity.

What
1 Large Dog, High Energy
When
Check-in 5 mins ago
Who
Nobody
Your name, email, and dog's name are never shown.

3. The 2-Hour Expiry

Dog park vibes change fast. To keep the map accurate and your privacy safe, every check-in automatically self-destructs after 2 hours. No permanent record of your visit exists on our public map.

4. No Phone Numbers, No Spam

We use Google Auth through Supabase just to make sure you're a real human. We will never share your email with third parties, and we'll only email you with PawVibe updates you've asked for.

5. Crowd-Sourced Reality

PawVibe is a tool for neighbours to help neighbours. While we do our best to keep data accurate, the vibe is provided by other dog parents. Always use your own best judgment when arriving at a park. You know your dog's needs better than any app.

Effective date: March 20, 2026
