Your data stays in your browser
The short version
PetsLately tools run in your browser. What you type about your cat — names, symptoms, medications, weights, notes — is processed on your device and is not sent to PetsLately servers.
There are no accounts, no sign-ups, and no tracking of your health entries. You never have to save anything: tools work fully with temporary session storage that clears when you close the tab.
What stays on your device
Drafts are held in your browser's session storage so a refresh doesn't lose your work. Session storage normally clears when you close the tab, though your browser's crash- or session-restore features may keep it longer — we cannot promise secure deletion.
If you explicitly choose to save a tool's data on this device, it is stored in your browser's IndexedDB — only in this browser, on this device. It is not cloud sync. Clearing your browser data removes it, and you can clear it from the tool at any time.
Browser storage can be accessible to other people who use this device and profile. It is not an encrypted backup.
What we never do with health entries
Health entries are never sent to our servers, never put into analytics events, never included in error reports, never placed in URLs, and never shared with advertisers.
Downloads (PDF, CSV, .catcare files) are generated in your browser and saved directly by you. Copy to clipboard only happens when you click Copy.
Analytics
PetsLately uses optional Google Analytics 4 cookies only after you choose “Accept optional cookies.” If you reject before accepting, the Google tag is not loaded and no analytics event is sent. If you later withdraw your choice, future analytics collection is disabled and Google Analytics cookies set by this site are removed. You can change this choice from “Cookie choices” in the footer.
When allowed, analytics may receive the page path, page title, referrer, approximate location derived from the network connection, browser or device category, and limited feature-usage events such as a tool being started or a result being printed. Google also receives standard connection information needed to deliver the service. Advertising storage, advertising personalization, and Google Signals are disabled.
Analytics never receives your entries, your cat's name, symptoms, exact weights, medication names, doses, notes, exported files, or other free text. Page URLs sent to analytics exclude query strings. PetsLately does not use analytics data for advertising or sell it.
Google processes analytics data under its own privacy terms. You can read Google's privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Your choices
Use any tool without saving anything — everything works.
Save on this device only after an explicit consent screen explains what that means.
Clear saved data at any time from the tool or your browser settings.
Download your entries as a file you control.
Accept or reject optional analytics cookies, and change that choice later from the footer.
Changes to this policy
Any change to how data is handled will be posted on this page with an updated date. Health-related entries will never be sent to servers without a clear, prominent explanation and an updated policy first.
