boopstr is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our pet-focused social app.

1. What We Collect

2. How We Use Information

3. Content & Privacy Controls

boopstr Content (not federated): Pet profiles, memorials, wishlists, and other content you create in boopstr currently remain within boopstr and are not published to the AT Protocol. You control who can see your boopstr content through privacy settings (private, shared with select users, or public within boopstr).

Bluesky Posts (federated and public): If you choose to post to Bluesky from within boopstr, those posts are published to the Bluesky network and are always public by design of the AT Protocol and may be visible across the federated ecosystem. Deletion from boopstr does not guarantee immediate deletion across Bluesky or other services.

4. Sharing & Third-Party Services

We share information only as needed to operate boopstr or when you direct us to. Integrated services and providers include:

These third parties process data under their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for their independent practices.

No system is 100% secure, but we strive to protect your data and will notify you of material security incidents as required by law.

boopstr is not directed to children or minors under 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a user under 16 without verifiable parental consent, we will delete that information promptly.

If you believe a user under 16 has provided us with personal information, please contact us at support@boopstr.com.

10. NCII & TAKE IT DOWN Act
