Angelic Friends (“we”, “us”, “our”) connects people with rescued and sheltered dogs through sponsorships, “Angel” credit subscriptions, and a feeding fund for stray dogs. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through the Angelic Friends mobile app (the “App”), how we use it, and the choices you have.

This document is a plain-language description of our current practices and is not a substitute for legal advice.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Account information

When you sign in with Google or Apple, we receive your name, email address, and a unique account identifier from that provider. We use Supabase to store your account and authenticate you; we do not receive or store your Google or Apple password.

1.2 Sponsorship, payment, and credit activity

• Which dogs you sponsor, the credits you pledge to a dog or to the feeding fund, and the history of those pledges.

• Your Angel subscription tier and available/used credit balance.

• Purchases are processed by RevenueCat and the app store you purchased through (Google Play or the App Store). We do not receive or store your payment card details — RevenueCat and the app store handle payment processing and share with us only what’s needed to grant and manage your subscription (e.g. product purchased, renewal status, purchase date).

1.3 Messages

If you sponsor a dog, you can message that dog’s shelter/sanctuary team in-app. We store the text of those messages and the media (photos/videos) the sanctuary team sends you, so the conversation is available when you reopen the app.

1.4 Notification preferences

We store your choices about which kinds of notifications you want (dog updates, chat messages, promotions) locally on your device.

1.5 Usage and diagnostic data

We use Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics to understand how the App is used (e.g. which screens are viewed, which buttons are tapped) and to diagnose crashes. This includes device information (device model, OS version, app version), general usage events, and crash logs. This data is associated with an anonymous installation identifier, not directly with your name or email, unless a crash report happens to capture identifying data present on screen at the time of the crash.

1.6 Content you choose to share

If you use the “Share” feature to share a dog’s profile outside the App, the App hands that content to your device’s own share sheet (e.g. Messages, WhatsApp). We don’t see or record who you shared it with.

2. How We Use Information

We use the information above to:

• Create and maintain your account and sponsorships.

• Process and reconcile subscription purchases and credit pledges.

• Show you the dogs you sponsor, their updates, and your conversation with their sanctuary team.

• Operate the feeding fund and track pledges toward it.

• Diagnose bugs and crashes, and understand which parts of the App are useful.

• Respond to support requests you send us.

We do not sell your personal information.

3. Who We Share Information With

We share information with the following service providers, each of which processes it on our behalf and under their own privacy terms:

We may also disclose information if required by law, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Angelic Friends, our users, or the animals in our care.

4. Data Retention

We retain your account and sponsorship data for as long as your account is active. Pledged credits and their record are kept permanently once pledged to a dog or to the feeding fund, since they back a public funding total shown on that dog’s page — this is by design and described in-app when you pledge. If you delete your account, all of this — including sponsorships and pledges — is deleted immediately and permanently along with the rest of your account data; a dog's public funding total will decrease to reflect the removed pledge.

5. Your Choices

• Notification preferences: adjustable any time from Profile → Notification preferences.

• Manage or cancel your subscription: from Profile → Manage subscription, or directly through Google Play / the App Store.

• Delete your account: Profile → Delete account, in the App. This deletes your account and data immediately — it's self-service, not a request we process later..

• Access or correct your data: contact us and we’ll help.

6. Children’s Privacy

Angelic Friends is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

7. Security

We rely on Supabase, Firebase, and RevenueCat’s security practices (encryption in transit, access controls, row-level security on our database) to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by an updated effective date at the top of this document.
