Welcome to Petcube ("we," "us" or "our").
Our data collection and processing rules are designed comply with GDPR, DPA rules and recommendations, and Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).
Your username, password and email address when you register for a Petcube account.
Profile information you provide for your user or pet profiles.
Profile information including, but not limited to first and last name, profile picture, location with granularity to the city name, birthday, gender, your pet(s) name(s), and breed(s). This information allows us to help you or others be "found" on Petcube. This information is provided by you optionally to improve your experience with our Service. You can always change or delete it entirely by logging into your profile page on petcube.com or with our apps for iOS or Android.
For example, we may send you Service-related emails (e.g., data collection and processing requests, account verification, changes/updates to features of the Service, technical and security notices). We also keep track of all of your requests at our customer support team. We keep this information as long as you are our customer and using our Service.
It is needed to run a fraudulent check to protect you and Petcube and to deliver the product to you. The fraudulent check is executed by a 3rd party service that builds Artificial Intelligence database, and your records will have to stay there even after you stop using our services.
To process your payment or issuing a refund, we collect this info. Petcube does not store this information, it is encrypted and sent to our payment processor. We keep only the last four digits of your credit card and card type for identification purposes. Our payment processor works in compliance with GDPR and PIPEDA.
We store your name, age, gender and location if you connect those to your profile for easier login and if you want to post some of your content from our app to these social networks. Please refer to Section 7 for a more detailed explanation.
Answers are stored in a pseudonymized way with a 3rd party services provider (SurveyMonkey), and we do not have the ability to link any of your replies to your user profile or identify you in any way. Answers to a survey may contain your name and/or email as a part of responses to surveys to be able to provide you with a prize for participation in respective surveys, but you not obligated to provide them anyway. We do surveys only to be able to improve our services. Surveys’ results are stored for up to 5 years to be able to compare trends. Answering surveys is an entirely voluntary activity.
You don’t have to give us any of this personal information, but without some of it we might not be able to process your order, and you are unlikely to receive our optimal overall customer experience. But that is your choice – and we respect that. With any questions you have with regards to data we collect and process, please contact us at data.compliance@petcube.com. Allow up to 30 days to process your inquiry.

Some features of the Service may not function properly if use or availability of device identifiers is impaired or disabled. The information we collect and share under this purpose is pseudonymized.
