Privacy Policy

Account Information

We collect your name and email address when you create an account or contact us. This allows you to log in, manage your subscription, and receive updates or important notifications about the App.

User and Device Identifiers

To operate the App, we collect and store identifiers that are associated with your account or your device:

• •Account identifier – a unique user ID assigned by Firebase Authentication when you create an account, used to associate your hunts, contests, and settings with you.
• •Subscription identifier – a unique app user ID assigned by RevenueCat, used to verify your subscription and restore purchases across devices.
• •Push notification token – a device-specific token used to deliver notifications about contests, hunt reminders, and important account or service notices.
• •Installation and device identifiers – generated by Firebase and used for security, abuse prevention, and reliable delivery of app services.

These identifiers are required for the App to function and cannot be turned off while you have an account. They are not used for advertising, and we do not use advertising IDs.

Location Data

Fur Ledger uses your device's precise GPS location to provide mapping, scouting markers, weather and environmental conditions, and hunt-logging features. Precise location is stored with the hunts and scouting spots you choose to save.

Location is optional. You can decline or revoke location access at any time in your device settings and continue to use the App, though location-based features will be limited.

Photos and Videos

If you choose to attach photos or videos to a hunt log or submit them as a contest entry, those files are uploaded to our media storage provider (Cloudinary) and stored with your account. We access your camera and photo library only when you actively choose to add media.

Photos and videos are optional. The App is fully usable without them.

Content You Create

Hunt logs, notes, scouting markers, contest entries, and other records you create are stored in our database so they are available to you across devices. Messages you send to P.A.R.V.O. are described in Section 3.

Anonymous Sound Data

When using the calling features, Fur Ledger may collect anonymous sound usage data to help compile regional working sound maps. This helps improve effectiveness and insights for hunters across different areas.

You can opt out of this data collection anytime in the app's settings.

Payment and Subscription Data

Payments are processed entirely by the app stores (Apple or Google). We never receive or store your card number or other financial account details.

We do receive and store a record of your subscription status and purchase history from RevenueCat — such as which plan you hold, when it renews, and whether a purchase was completed — so we can unlock paid features and restore your purchases.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services to operate the App. Each acts as a service provider processing data on our behalf:

• •Firebase (Google) – authentication, database, file storage, push notifications, and backend functions.
• •RevenueCat – subscription management and purchase verification.
• •Cloudinary – storage and delivery of photos and videos you upload.
• •Mapbox – maps and mapping tiles. Receives location coordinates in order to render the map you are viewing.
• •OpenAI – powers P.A.R.V.O. Receives the content of AI requests you make, as described in Section 3. Some questions also trigger a web search derived from your message.
• •Weather and mapping data providers (including WeatherAPI, Open-Meteo, and the U.S. National Weather Service) – receive approximate coordinates to return forecasts and environmental conditions.
• •EmailJS – delivers support and contact form messages.

Each of these providers follows its own security and privacy standards consistent with industry best practices.
