Sniffin privacy policy
Effective date: 11 September 2026 · Pimth
This policy covers Sniffin for iPhone and iPad, support correspondence and pimth.com/sniffin/. Website hosting and email services operate separately from local app storage.
1. What the app stores and why
Sniffin stores the information you choose to enter and your game progress in the app’s private storage on your device to display profiles, history and statistics and save your pet world:
Dog profiles: name, breed, weight, height, coat color, ear style, sex, birthday, personality, notes and any attached photo.
Stool records: the relevant dog, date and time, amount in grams, color, odor, consistency, notes and any attached photo.
Game data in version 1.1: companion appearance, each dog’s level and XP, Coins, furniture inventory, home layout, artifacts, achievements, daily goals, expeditions and related timestamps, and reward receipts used to prevent duplicate claims.
Information used to organize entries, such as record identifiers, profile creation dates, your last selected dog profile, and language, sound and haptic preferences.
The app has no user accounts, advertising, tracking or analytics. It does not send dog profiles, records, photos or game progress to a developer server. It does not analyze photos with AI or request location, contacts or microphone access.
2. Camera and photos
The app requests camera access only when you choose to take a photo. For existing images, it uses the system photo picker and receives the photo you select without requiring access to your entire library. Photos are optional. You can manage camera permission in your device’s Settings.
Images saved in the app are resized and encoded as new image files without retaining the original location metadata. Originals in your photo library are not changed or deleted. The 3D character uses a non-AR view and does not activate the camera.
3. Backups and other devices
Sniffin does not provide cross-device sync or use CloudKit to sync records. Depending on your settings, iOS/iPadOS backups in iCloud or on a computer may include app data. Such backups and restoration are governed by Apple’s services and your settings. Pimth does not hold a copy of your records on a developer server.
4. Retention and deletion
Local app data stays on the device until you change or delete it, or the system manages that storage. You can edit or delete individual records and remove attached photos by saving the change. To remove all companion profiles, care records, photos and game progress stored by the app, open the gear button for Settings → Delete all data and confirm. This also resets the home, inventory and rewards.
Deleting data within the app does not delete original photos in your library or previously created backups. Manage those copies through your backup settings or the device holding them. Pimth cannot remotely delete or restore data on your device. See the deletion steps.
5. When you contact support
Email sent to support@pimth.com includes your email address, message and any attachments you choose to send. This information is used to answer your question and investigate the issue you report. The email services used to send and receive correspondence process it according to their services and policies. Share only what is necessary. You can contact the same mailbox about your correspondence or request deletion of retained messages, subject to legal obligations or necessary retention.
6. This website
For information about website requests, browser preferences and support correspondence, see the Pimth website privacy policy. Visiting this website does not send your dog profiles, records, photos or game progress from the app.
7. Changes to this policy
If information handling changes, this page and its effective date will be updated to reflect the app and related services.
