Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 13, 2026

Short version: your data is used to run Woofit, nothing else. No ads, no data sales, no third-party trackers, no analytics on this website.

1. Data controller

Brice Mourlon, sole proprietor registered in France. For any question or request about your data: hello@woofit.me.

2. Data we process

  • Account and authentication: email address and authentication credentials.
  • Dog profile: name, breed, photo, and the generated avatar derived from it.
  • Walks: GPS route, distance, duration, timestamps.
  • Location during a walk: collected only while a walk is running.
  • Memories: the photos you choose to attach to a walk.
  • Progress: XP, levels, ranks, consecutive days, quests, badges, Bones.
  • Social (optional features): your Woofit handle, friend relationships, friend requests, blocks and reports.
  • Live walking presence: while you are on an active walk and the Live Map features are enabled, a temporary presence used by the social features (see section 6). It expires when the walk ends.
  • Purchases: Woofit+ entitlement status received from Apple / StoreKit. We never receive your payment card details.
  • Technical: error logs and minimal device information needed to fix crashes.

3. Purposes and legal bases

Providing the service and syncing your data across your devices (performance of contract); securing, fixing and improving the app (legitimate interest); notifications, photo library access and precise location (consent, which you can withdraw at any time in iOS Settings); the optional social features, which you activate and configure yourself in the app (performance of contract for the features you enable, and your visibility choices for what is shared with other users).

4. Infrastructure and where your data lives

App data (account, dog profile, walks, memories, progress, social data) is stored with Supabase for database, authentication and file storage, on servers located in the European Union. This website is hosted by Infomaniak Network SA, Rue Eugène-Marziano 25, 1227 Les Acacias, Geneva, Switzerland. Purchases are processed by Apple. We do not sell your data, we show no ads and we use no third-party trackers.

5. Location and health data

Woofit may process your precise location during an active walk in order to record your route, calculate walking distance and duration, and provide map-related functionality. Location is used only during an active walk, never in the background outside a walk.

Your walking routes may be retained as part of your walk history (see section 7). Your live social presence is a different thing: it exists only during an active walk. When the "Woofiters nearby" feature is enabled, the location made available to users who are not your friends is intentionally approximate. Woofit does not use the Live Map to create a public history of your movements and does not share your social location when you are not on an active walk.

If you enable Apple Health sync, that data stays in HealthKit under Apple's rules and is not sent to our servers.

6. Social features and live walking presence

Woofit provides optional social features that allow users to create a public Woofit handle, add other users as friends, participate in a friends leaderboard and view social walking activity while using the app. There is no public feed, no comments and no private messaging.

Your Woofit handle, friend relationships and information required to operate these features may be associated with your account.

When you start a walk, Woofit uses precise location data to record your route, calculate distance and provide the core walking experience. If Live Map features are enabled, temporary walking presence may also be used to provide social functionality.

By default, your social walking visibility is limited to accepted friends. You can choose:

  • to share your presence with nobody;
  • to share it with friends only;
  • or to explicitly opt in to appearing to nearby Woofiters.

When you choose to appear to nearby Woofiters, users who are not your friends do not receive your precise GPS coordinates. Woofit generates an intentionally approximate location to reduce the ability to determine your exact location.

Woofit also protects the beginning of a walk before geographic social presence becomes available, reducing the risk of revealing a home or habitual starting location.

The Global Live Map uses aggregated activity data. Areas containing too few active users are not displayed individually in order to reduce the possibility of isolating a specific user's location.

An active walk may contribute anonymously to the global number of Woofiters currently walking. This count contains no identity or location information.

Social walking presence is temporary. It is removed or automatically expires after an active walk ends and is not used to create a public history of your movements.

You can change your Live Map visibility settings at any time. You can also remove friends, block users and report inappropriate behavior from within the app.

Deleting your account also removes social information associated with your account, except where limited information may need to be retained for security, abuse prevention or legal obligations.

7. Retention

Your data is kept while your account is active. This covers your walk history and content (routes, memories, progress) and your account and social data (handle, friend relationships, blocks, reports). Live social presence is not kept: it expires at the end of the walk.

Deleting your account (in the app, Profile › Settings › Delete my account, or by email) erases your account, walks, memories, progress and associated social data within 30 days, except where the law requires longer retention or where limited information must be kept for security or abuse prevention (for example, a block or a report).

8. Your rights in the EU, EEA and UK

Under the GDPR you have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, portability, restriction and objection, and the right to withdraw consent at any time. Write to hello@woofit.me to exercise them. You may also lodge a complaint with the CNIL (cnil.fr) or your local supervisory authority.

9. United States residents

Depending on your state's law (including the California CCPA/CPRA), you may have the right to know, correct and delete personal information about you, and to opt out of its sale or sharing. Woofit does not sell or share your personal information within the meaning of those laws, and will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights. Requests: hello@woofit.me. Your app data is hosted in the European Union.

10. Children

Woofit is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their data.
