We use the information that we collect from you to provide our service and improve the user experience on our website. Specifically, we use your information for the following purposes:

How We Store and Protect Your Information

We take the security of your personal data very seriously and have implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect it. We use secure places of storage like Amazon Web Services, Inc., which is located in the United States of America, to store your pet photos.ts. For the avoidance of doubt, we do not share or transfer your pet photos.ts to third parties (except temporarily storing your photos.ts to Amazon Web Services to provide an online processing function).

We have implemented various security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure, including encryption and access controls. We regularly review and update our security procedures to ensure that they are effective and up-to-date.

Despite our best efforts, however, no security measure is completely foolproof, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your personal data. If you have any questions or concerns about the security of your data, please contact us at support@barkparty.

Data Breach Notification and Remediation

In the event of a data breach that results in the unauthorized disclosure of your personal data, we will promptly notify you and any applicable regulatory authorities as required by applicable law. This includes data breaches involving our third-party service providers such as AWS and stablediffusionapi.com.

We will work closely with our service providers to ensure that any data breaches are addressed promptly and effectively. We will also take appropriate measures to mitigate the effects of the breach and prevent future breaches. This may include logging out users from all devices, resetting passwords and sending temporary passwords to affected users, and performing other reasonably necessary activities and actions.

If you believe that your personal data has been compromised or you have become aware of any suspicious activity, please contact us immediately at [insert email address]. We encourage you to take all appropriate measures to protect your personal data, such as changing your password regularly and not sharing your login credentials with anyone.

Please note that while we take every reasonable precaution to prevent data breaches, no security measures can guarantee absolute security. In the event of a breach, we will take all necessary steps to address the issue as quickly as possible and notify you as required by law.

How We Communicate With You

We communicate with our users through email and social media. We use these channels to provide important updates about our service, as well as promotional content. If you prefer not to receive promotional content, you may opt-out at any time.
Your Rights and Control over Your Information

You have the right to request access to the personal data that we collect about you. If you would like to request access to your data, please email us at support@barkparty. We will respond to your request as soon as possible.

We will delete your data as soon as possible, provided that doing so does not violate any legal or regulatory requirements.

Sharing Your Information with Third Parties

We do not rent or sell any personal data, including photos.ts, to any third parties outside our company. However, we do use third-party service providers to support our business. Specifically, we use AWS to store the images that you upload to our website, and stablediffusionapi.com to fine-tune a text to image model with the pet images.

These service providers are bound by confidentiality and data protection terms to keep your personal data confidential and secure. We only share the data that is necessary to provide our service and ensure the best user experience for you. If you have any questions or concerns about our use of third-party service providers, please contact us at support@barkparty.
