BUONAFORMA LLC (doing business as Snap Automation) ("Snap Automation," "we,""our," and/or "us") values the privacy of individuals who use our application, website (including https://trywhiskers.com),and related services (collectively, our "Services"). This privacy policy (the "Privacy Policy") explains how we collect, use, and disclose personal information from users of our Services ("you" or "your"). As used in this Privacy Policy, "personal information" means any information relating to an identified or identifiable individual. By using our Services, you agree to the collection, use, disclosure, and procedures described in this Privacy Policy. Beyond the Privacy Policy, your use of our Services is also subject to our Terms of Service.
Personal Information We Collect
We may collect a variety of personal information from or about you or your devices from various sources, as described below. Where applicable, we indicate whether and why you must provide us with your personal information, as well as the consequences of failing to do so. If you do not provide your personal information when requested, you may not be able to use our Services if that personal information is necessary to provide you with our Services or if we are legally required to collect it.
A. Personal Information You Provide to Us
Account Creation. You can create an account using Google Sign-In, Apple Sign-In, or email registration. If you use a third-party sign-in service, that provider may share certain information with us according to your privacy settings with that provider.
Pet Profile Creation. When you create a digital animated twin of your pet, we will receive your pet's photo, your pet's name, age, and gender. We use this information to generate and personalize your pet's digital twin.
Pet Photo Storage and Use. When you upload a pet photo, we store it in our secure cloud database to maintain your digital pet twin. We may use pet photos to train and improve our own Services. You retain ownership of your original pet photos, but you grant us a license to use, store, and process these images to provide and improve our Services. Our third-party AI service providers process your photos solely to deliver the features of our Services, as governed by their own terms of service and privacy policies.
User Profile Information. We collect your name, age, and gender to personalize your experience with our Services.
Pet Interactions. When you interact with your digital pet twin, we may receive audio information (including sound or voice recordings from voice chat), text from regular chat, and image data from that interaction. The Services allow you to submit this audio information, text, image data, and other materials to the Services ("Prompts"), which our AI model uses to generate conversational responses based on your Prompts ("Outputs"). If you include personal information in your Prompts, we will collect that information, and this information may be reproduced in the Outputs.
Voice and Biometric Data. When you use voice chat features, we collect voice recordings that may be considered biometric identifiers under certain state laws, including Illinois' Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA). By using voice chat, you consent to our collection, use, and storage of your voice data for the purposes described in this policy. We retain voice data only as long as necessary to provide Services and improve our AI models.
Communications. If you contact us directly, we may receive personal information about you. For example, when you contact us for customer support purposes, we may receive your name, email address, the contents of a message or attachments that you may send to us, and other information you choose to provide. When you communicate with us, third party vendors may receive and store these communications on our behalf.
Payment Information. When you make a purchase, payment processing is handled by third-party payment processors including Apple In-App Purchase, RevenueCat, and Stripe. These processors collect and process payment information such as your name and mailing address according to their own privacy policies. We do not directly store your complete credit card information.
Marketing and Advertising Information. If you interact with our advertisements or marketing campaigns (such as through Meta/Facebook ads), we may collect information you provide, including your phone number, email address, and other contact information.
