GoodBoy Privacy Policy
Last updated: 13 October 2026
GoodBoy is an app for people living with an aggressive or reactive dog, and for the trainers who help them. This policy explains what the app does with information.
The short version
- GoodBoy has no accounts. You never sign up or log in.
- Everything you record stays on your phone. We do not receive it, and we cannot see it.
- We do not show ads, and we do not use analytics or tracking tools.
- The only information that leaves your phone is what you choose to send, and what the app store needs to process a subscription.
What the app stores on your phone
Everything you enter is saved in the app's own storage on your device:
- your dog's profile, including a photo if you add one
- incident logs, behaviour counts, daily check-ins and training sessions
- medication, vet visits and regular care
- your behaviour plan
- for trainers: client names and contact details you type in, and your business name, logo and wording
This information is not uploaded to us or to anyone else. If you delete the app, or use "Erase all data" in Settings, it is removed from your phone. Because nothing is stored on a server, we cannot restore it for you.
Information you choose to share
GoodBoy lets you send information to other people. This only happens when you tap a button to do it, and it goes through an app you pick (for example email or messages):
- a PDF of your plan
- an update file for your trainer, or a plan file for your client
Once you send something, the person you sent it to has a copy. How the email or messaging service you used handles it is covered by that service's own privacy policy.
Subscriptions
Subscriptions are bought through Google Play or the Apple App Store. Your payment details are handled by Google or Apple and are never seen by GoodBoy.
To check whether a subscription is active, the app uses a service called RevenueCat. RevenueCat receives an anonymous identifier for your app installation and your purchase history for GoodBoy. It does not receive your name, your email address, or anything you have recorded about your dog. RevenueCat's privacy policy is at revenuecat.com/privacy.
Permissions the app asks for
- Notifications, only if you turn on reminders. Reminders are created on your phone; nothing is sent from a server.
- Photos, only when you choose a picture for your dog or a business logo. The app can only see the photo you pick.
Deleting your data
GoodBoy holds none of your data on a server, so there is nothing for us to delete. To erase what is on your phone, open Settings in the app and choose "Erase all data", or uninstall the app.
Children
GoodBoy is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted at this address with a new date.
