Overview
MeowKnow ("we") values your privacy and personal information protection. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our app.
Information Collection
When you use our app, we may collect the following information:
1. Photo Data
Photos you take or select for cat breed recognition.
These photos are only used for recognition and are processed locally on your device by default. We do not store or use them for other purposes.
2. Location Information (Optional)
With your explicit permission, we may record the location when you take photos to display your cat collection footprint within the app.
Location is an optional permission that you can disable at any time in system settings.
3. Device Information
We may collect limited device information (such as system version and device model) to improve app stability and optimize user experience. This information is not used to identify you personally.
Information Use
The information we collect is only used for:
- Providing cat breed recognition features
- Recording and displaying your cat collection and progress
- Improving app features and user experience
Data Storage
Your cat collection and recognition records are stored locally on your device and synced across your devices via Apple's iCloud service.
Synced data is tied to your Apple ID. We do not access, store, or process your iCloud data, nor do we store data on our own servers.
Third-Party Services
To provide certain features (such as image recognition), our app may use third-party technical services.
In this process, relevant data is only used to complete the corresponding function and will not be used for advertising or other commercial purposes.
Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access and manage your in-app data
- Delete your information by clearing app data or uninstalling the app
- Refuse or revoke optional permissions such as location access
