Privacy Policy for PetScale: Critter Weight

1. Data Minimization & Privacy: PetScale is built on a "Privacy by Design" philosophy. We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal information, pet data, or usage analytics.

2. Local-Only Storage: All data you enter (like pet names, species, and weight logs) is stored locally on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework. This data never leaves your device and is not accessible by the developer.

3. User Data Portability: Because we do not store your data on a server, we provide a JSON export/import feature. This allows you to manually back up or move your pet's history. You are the sole custodian of these files.

4. Third-Party Services: This app does not use any third-party SDKs, tracking pixels, or advertising networks. We do not track your behavior across other apps.

5. Optional Purchases: PetScale includes an optional 'Tip Jar' to support development. All transactions are securely processed by Apple. The developer does not receive or store your financial information; we only receive an anonymized confirmation from Apple to enable the purchase.

6. Data Deletion: You have full control over your data. You may delete individual records or the entire app at any time to permanently remove all information from your device.
