Meowtrait Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 2, 2026

Meowtrait ("the app") is developed by m4coding. This policy explains what data the app handles.

1. Photos and camera

Photos you take or pick are analyzed only on your device to recognize your cat's coat, eyes and markings. Photos are never uploaded to us or any third party, and are never used to train models. Camera frames are processed in memory and discarded. A small thumbnail is kept on your device only if you save a cat profile.

2. No account

The app has no sign-up and no server of its own. Your cat profiles, unlock records and settings are stored on your device. Android may include them in your own Google Drive device backup; you can also export a backup file yourself.

3. Data collected by third-party services

• Google AdMob (ads): device identifiers such as the advertising ID, IP address (which can be used to estimate approximate location), ad interaction data and diagnostic information for advertising, analytics and fraud prevention. In the EEA, UK and Switzerland we ask for your consent through Google's User Messaging Platform, and you can change it in Me → Ad privacy choices.
• Google Play Billing (subscriptions): purchase records processed by Google.
• ML Kit subject segmentation: processes images on your device. Its SDK can send device and app information, installation identifiers, performance metrics and error information to Google for diagnostics and usage analytics. Images and image-analysis results are not sent to Google by ML Kit.
• Firebase Analytics & Crashlytics: these services are not configured in the initial release. If enabled in a future release, this policy and our Google Play declaration will be updated before distribution. The usage-statistics setting applies to optional app analytics; it does not switch off diagnostics or data handling performed independently by advertising and ML Kit SDKs.

SDK data is transmitted using encrypted connections. Google handles data under its Privacy Policy. For advertising controls, see My Ad Center. Third-party SDK data retention and deletion are governed by those services; we do not operate a server holding your photos or profiles.

Sharing an exported avatar, sticker or backup is optional and initiated by you. The destination app or service then handles the file under its own policy.

4. Children

The app is not directed to children under 13.

5. Deleting your data

Delete a cat in the app, or uninstall the app / clear its data in system settings to remove all local data. You can contact us at the email below for help with data requests. For information held by Google, use the controls and request methods in Google’s Privacy Policy; clearing this app does not delete Google’s independently held records.
