Privacy Policy

AuraCat Privacy Policy

AuraCat turns cat photos, personality tags, and music choices into Catsona artwork, theme songs, videos, and play remixes. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, who helps us process it, and how you can delete your data.

Effective date: July 5, 2026

The short version

  • We use your cat photo and the details you provide only to create and manage AuraCat experiences.
  • We do not sell personal data, run third-party ad tracking, or use your cat photos for marketing without permission.
  • We do not use your cat photos, prompts, or generated outputs to train AI models.
  • Payments are handled by Apple, Google Play, and RevenueCat. AuraCat never sees your card or bank details.
  • You can delete your account and request data export or deletion by using the app or emailing privacy@auracat.app.

1. Who we are

AuraCat is operated by AuraMind Studio. In this policy, "AuraCat", "we", "us", and "our" mean AuraMind Studio and the AuraCat mobile app identified by the package name com.auramind.auracat.

Privacy questions, deletion requests, and data export requests can be sent to privacy@auracat.app. Support questions can be sent to support@auracat.app.

2. Data we collect

Account data
Account identifiers, email address if you sign in with email, app-generated user IDs, app version, and basic device class.
Cat profile data
Cat name, optional birthday, breed, coat notes, personality tags, and choices you make in the creation flow.
Cat photos
Photos you choose to upload or capture in the app, after the app strips image metadata where supported.
Generated outputs
Catsona cover images, theme songs, captions, share videos, library metadata, and remix metadata.
Purchases
Product IDs, receipt status, entitlement status, refund status, Cat Treats grants, reservations, spends, releases, and balance history.
Diagnostics
Crash logs, performance diagnostics, server logs, fraud-prevention signals, and aggregate usage events needed to operate the app.

We do not collect precise location, contacts, advertising identifiers, health data, financial account numbers, or your full photo library. We access only the photo you choose for AuraCat.

3. How we use data

  • To create your requested Catsona artwork, theme song, caption, share video, and remix.
  • To save your cat profiles, library, and Cat Treats balance.
  • To process purchases, restores, refunds, and entitlement checks.
  • To keep generated assets private unless you choose to share them.
  • To prevent abuse, duplicate spending, refund fraud, and unsafe or copyrighted generations.
  • To respond to support, privacy, deletion, and data export requests.
  • To fix bugs, monitor reliability, and improve the app using aggregate, non-advertising analytics.

4. AI processing

AuraCat uses AI providers to produce the content you request. Cat photos and profile details may be sent to OpenAI for image and caption-related processing. Theme-song prompts may be sent to Google Vertex AI / Lyria for music generation. Pre-produced AuraCat Songs and CatDJ base assets may be created with music tools such as Suno, but those production batches do not receive your personal cat data.

We configure provider use so your inputs and outputs are not used to train provider models. We also avoid prompts that imitate famous artists, copyrighted lyrics, copyrighted melodies, medical claims, or unsafe content.

5. Sharing and visibility

Your cat profiles, source photos, generated outputs, and library items are private by default. Sharing happens only when you choose a Share action and use the iOS or Android system share sheet. Once you share an output outside AuraCat, that external service handles the copy you sent according to its own policies.

6. Payments and Cat Treats

Purchases are processed by Apple App Store or Google Play, with RevenueCat helping AuraCat verify receipts and entitlements. We receive purchase status, product IDs, transaction identifiers, country or region, refund status, and entitlement state. We do not receive your payment card, bank account, or store account password.

Cat Treats are server-owned. Failed system or provider generations release reserved Cat Treats back to your balance. Refunds and chargebacks may adjust your Cat Treats ledger and entitlement state.

7. Processors we use

We use trusted processors to run the app, including Supabase for auth and database services, Cloudflare for hosting and object storage, OpenAI and Google Cloud / Vertex AI for generation, RevenueCat for purchases and entitlements, Apple and Google for store payments, and optional crash diagnostics providers. These providers process data only for AuraCat's product, security, support, and legal purposes.

We do not sell personal data. We do not share personal data with ad networks.

8. Retention and deletion

Cat profiles, source photos, and generated outputs stay in your account until you delete them or delete your account. Unused uploaded photos may be removed earlier as part of storage cleanup.

Account deletion makes the account unusable immediately. We tombstone account data within 24 hours and permanently delete personal data within 30 days, except records we must keep for tax, accounting, store billing disputes, fraud prevention, security, or legal compliance. Limited purchase and ledger audit records may be retained for up to 7 years. Provider and anti-abuse audit records are minimized and retained only as long as needed for security, refund, and operations review.

To delete your account, use Account & Subscription in the AuraCat app, visit auracat.app/delete-account, or email privacy@auracat.app.

9. Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, export, delete, restrict, or object to certain processing of your personal data. AuraCat accepts these requests globally through privacy@auracat.app. We may ask you to verify the request from the email or account identity linked to your AuraCat account.

We aim to acknowledge privacy requests within 72 hours and complete them within 30 days unless the request is complex or law allows more time. If we need more time, we will tell you why.

10. Children

AuraCat is a family-safe entertainment app for cat owners, but accounts are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 in the United States or under the applicable age of digital consent in other regions. If you believe a child created an account, contact privacy@auracat.app and we will delete it.

11. Security

We use encryption in transit, private storage, signed URLs for generated assets, account-scoped authorization, server-side credit validation, receipt verification, and limited access controls. No internet service can guarantee perfect security, but we design AuraCat so cat photos, generated outputs, purchases, and ledger records are protected by default.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as AuraCat changes. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date and provide notice in the app or by email when required.
