American Bully Registry ("ABR", "we", "us" or "our") is a breed registry based in Menifee, California. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with and the choices you have, when you use our website americanbullyregistryabr.net, our mobile apps for iOS and Android, and the registration, event and marketplace services we offer through them (together, the "Services").

Personal information means information that identifies you or can reasonably be linked to you. It does not include information that has been aggregated or de-identified so that it can no longer be linked to you.

• Account information: your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, password (stored only in encrypted, hashed form), profile photo and language preference. If you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email address and profile photo from Google.
• Identity verification: photos of a government-issued ID that you upload so we can confirm ownership of a dog, for example when you ask to link a dog to your account.
• Dog and registration information: the details you submit in registration, litter, transfer and change of ownership applications, such as dog names, photos, dates of birth, colors, microchip numbers, sire and dam, breeder, owners and co-owners, and the names and email addresses of buyers or co-owners you add.
• Payment information: payments are processed by Stripe and PayPal. We receive confirmation of the payment, the amount and the last digits or type of card, but we do not receive or store your full card number.
• Events and shows: entries, categories, results and judge information for events you take part in.
• Marketplace listings: when you list a dog for sale, the dog's details and photos and the contact email, phone number and location you choose to show buyers.
• Messages and support: information you send us when you contact us or our support team.

• Usage and device information: IP address, browser and device type, operating system, pages and screens viewed, the date and time of your visit and errors that occur. Our servers record this in logs that we use to keep the Services running and secure.
• Cookies: we use cookies that are necessary to keep you signed in, protect forms and remember your preferences. The Services do not work correctly without them.
• Website analytics: our website uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors use it, for example which pages are visited, how people arrive at the site, their approximate location (city or country), and whether they take certain actions such as submitting a registration, completing a purchase or contacting a seller. We have turned off Google signals and ad personalization for this data, we do not send Google the text after the "?" in our web addresses (where emails or account details can appear), and we do not measure our internal staff pages.
• Advertising pixel: some pages of our website include the Meta (Facebook) Pixel, which tells Meta that a page was visited so we can measure and improve our ads on Meta's platforms.
• Mobile apps: if you allow notifications, our apps register your device with OneSignal so we can send you push notifications about your account, registrations and requests.

• To create and manage your account and verify your identity and ownership of your dogs.
• To process registrations, litters, transfers, changes of ownership, pedigrees and event entries.
• To process payments and prevent fraud.
• To send you service messages by email and push notification, such as status updates, document requests and litter requests.
• To send you news and offers from ABR, which you can stop at any time.
• To run the marketplace and show your listings to interested buyers.
• To understand how the Services are used and improve them, including measuring visits and actions, and to report aggregated audience statistics to advertisers and sponsors (these reports do not identify you).
• To keep the Services secure, fix problems, enforce our Terms of Use and comply with the law.

ABR is a breed registry, so some information is public by design. A dog's registered name, ABR number, breed, pedigree, titles and event results, and the names of its breeder and owners, may appear on pedigree certificates, in search results and in event results. Marketplace listings, including the contact details you choose to include, are visible to anyone who views them.

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only as follows:

• Service providers that work for us under contract: hosting and infrastructure (servers located in the United States), backups (Microsoft Azure), email delivery (SendGrid), push notifications (OneSignal), payments (Stripe, PayPal), sign-in (Google), analytics (Google Analytics) and advertising measurement (Meta), and application logging and support tools.
• Other owners and parties to a request: when you start or answer a transfer, change of ownership, litter request or co-ownership, the other people involved see the information needed to complete it, such as your name and the dog's details.
• ABR authorized representatives and affiliates in your country, who help us review applications and answer questions, only for the applications and accounts they handle.
• Legal and safety: when required by law, to respond to legal process, to protect the rights, property or safety of ABR, our users or others, or to prevent fraud.
• Business transfers: if ABR is involved in a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
• With your consent or at your direction.

• Analytics: you can stop Google Analytics from collecting data in your browser with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. Blocking cookies in your browser also limits analytics.
• Ads: you can control how Meta uses information for ads in your Facebook or Instagram ad settings.
• Emails: use the unsubscribe link in any promotional email. Service messages about your account and registrations cannot be turned off while you have an account.
• Push notifications: turn them off at any time in your device's notification settings.
• Access, correction and deletion: you can update most of your information in your profile, delete your account from the mobile app's settings, or email us to request a copy of your information, a correction or deletion. Registration records that form part of the breed registry, such as pedigrees and the history of a dog's ownership, may be kept after an account is deleted, because other owners and future pedigrees depend on them.
• Your state's rights: depending on where you live, such as California, you may have additional rights to know, access, correct or delete your personal information and to not be discriminated against for using them. To use any of these rights, email us. We will verify your request and answer within the time the law requires.

We keep account information while your account is active and as long as needed to provide the Services. Registration, pedigree and ownership records are kept as permanent registry records. Payment records are kept as required for accounting and tax purposes. Server logs and analytics data are kept for a limited time; Google Analytics data is kept for 14 months.

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including encrypted connections (HTTPS), hashed passwords and restricted access to our systems. No system is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

The Services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child under 13 has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

ABR is based in the United States and our servers are located there. If you use the Services from another country, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States.

We may update this policy from time to time. We will change the effective date at the top, and if the changes are significant we will tell you by email or with a notice in the Services.
