Privacy Policy

Effective Date: May 23 2026 Last Updated: May 23 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Allison Wells, doing business as Push Drop Stick ("we," "us," or "our"), collects, uses, and shares information when you use the Push Drop Stick mobile application (the "App"). By using the App, you agree to the practices described here.

We have designed the App to collect as little personal information as possible. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for advertising.


1. Information We Collect

a. Information Processed On-Device Only

Most of what the App does happens on your device. Content you create or interact with inside the App — including any notes, dog profiles, settings, training progress, and on-device AI features — is stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.

b. Diagnostic and Crash Data (via Sentry)

To keep the App stable and to diagnose problems, the App uses Sentry (operated by Functional Software, Inc., d/b/a Sentry) as a crash-reporting and performance-monitoring service. When the App crashes or encounters an error, Sentry may collect:

  • Crash data: stack traces, error messages, and the state of the App at the time of the crash;
  • Performance data: App responsiveness, hang detection, and similar runtime metrics;
  • Other diagnostic data: device model, operating system version, App version, locale, and a randomly generated install identifier used to group reports from the same device.

This information is not linked to your identity and is not used to track you across apps or websites owned by other companies. We use it only to detect, debug, and fix issues in the App.

For more on how Sentry handles data, see Sentry's privacy notice at .

c. Server Access Logs

We do not maintain user accounts or store personal data on our servers. When the App requests certain content from us — specifically, training plan videos and content updates — our servers automatically record standard access log information for each request. This typically includes:

  • IP address of the requesting device;
  • Timestamp of the request;
  • The resource requested (e.g., which video or content file);
  • The response status and size;
  • Basic user-agent / client information.

These logs are used solely for security, abuse prevention, capacity planning, and to confirm that content delivery is working correctly. They are retained for a limited period and then deleted or aggregated.

d. Anonymized Training Session Data (Opt-In Only)

If — and only if — you affirmatively opt in, we collect a limited record of how you use the App so we can improve it. On first launch, you will be presented with an in-App consent screen describing this collection; you may decline at the consent screen, and you may revoke your consent at any time from the App's settings. No training-session data is recorded or transmitted unless you have opted in.

When you have opted in, we collect events such as which exercises or training plans you start and complete, how far you progress in a plan, timing and duration of sessions, and similar in-App interactions.

Each event is associated with a random install identifier generated by the App — not with your name, email, dog's name, account, or any contact information. The install identifier lets us tell, for example, that the same device completed two sessions in a row, but it does not identify you personally and is not shared with advertisers or data brokers.

We use this data only to:

  • Operate, maintain, and improve the App;
  • Understand which training plans and exercises are effective;
  • Debug silent failures that crash reporting does not catch; and

What we do not do with session data. We do not sell raw training-session events, share them with data brokers, or use them for advertising. We may, however: (i) share session events with service providers acting on our behalf (such as our hosting or compute provider); (ii) publish or share aggregated or de-identified statistics derived from this data; and (iii) transfer data to a successor entity as part of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets (see Section 4).

e. Aggregate Usage Counters

Independently of Section 1(d), the App may send periodic aggregate counts — for example, a single daily total of how many times specific exercises were started or completed on your device — to our diagnostic provider, Sentry, via Sentry's metrics interface. These counts:

  • Are not associated with your name, email, account, or any device, session, or install identifier;
  • Do not include per-event timestamps that could be used to reconstruct individual sessions; and
  • Are combined with counts from other devices on Sentry's side.

f. Information You Choose to Provide

If you contact us directly (e.g., by email) for support or other reasons, we will receive whatever information you choose to send us (such as your email address and the contents of your message). We use that information only to respond to you.

2. Information We Do Not Collect

We do not:

  • Sell or rent your personal information;
  • Use your information for behavioral advertising or cross-app tracking;
  • Maintain user accounts or profiles on our servers;
  • Store on our servers any content that identifies you, such as your name, your dog's name, notes, or dog profiles;
  • Collect precise geolocation;
  • Collect contacts, photos, microphone audio, or camera input except as needed for an in-App feature you actively use, in which case any such data is processed on-device unless this policy says otherwise.

3. How We Use Information

We use the limited information described above to:

  • Operate, maintain, and improve the App;
  • Diagnose crashes, errors, and performance problems;
  • Understand which training plans and exercises are effective;
  • Inform future in-App recommendations or personalization;
  • Detect and prevent abuse, fraud, and security incidents;
  • Deliver training plan videos and content updates you request;
  • Respond to your support requests;
  • Comply with legal obligations.

4. How We Share Information

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

  • Service providers — Sentry processes diagnostic and crash data on our behalf, and our hosting / content-delivery provider processes server access logs as needed to deliver requested content. These providers may only use the information to perform services for us and are contractually required to protect it.
  • Legal requirements — We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, court order, or other valid legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of us, our users, or others.
  • Business transfers — If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to standard confidentiality protections.
  • Aggregated or de-identified data — We may create, use, publish, share, or sell aggregated, statistical, or de-identified information derived from training-session data (for example, "X% of users complete a given exercise"). Because this information does not identify any individual, device, or household, it is not subject to the restrictions on personal information set out in this Policy.

5. Data Retention

  • On-device data: retained on your device until you delete it or uninstall the App.
  • Sentry diagnostic data: retained per Sentry's retention defaults (typically 30–90 days), then deleted.
  • Aggregate usage counters (via Sentry): retained per Sentry's metrics retention defaults. Because these counts are not associated with any device or person, they cannot be selectively deleted on an individual basis.
  • Anonymized training-session data (opt-in only): retained while you have the App installed and for a reasonable period thereafter for trend analysis and machine-learning model fine-tuning. You can revoke consent at any time from App settings, after which no further data will be collected. Data that has already been incorporated into a trained machine-learning model cannot be removed from the model's weights.
  • Server access logs: retained for a limited operational period and then deleted or aggregated into non-identifying statistics.
  • Support correspondence: retained for as long as reasonably necessary to address your inquiry and any follow-up.

6. Security

We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the limited information we process. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Children's Privacy

The App is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Use of the App is also subject to the age requirements set out in our Terms of Service, which generally restrict use to adults. Users are asked to confirm they meet the applicable age requirement before accepting these terms or enabling any optional data collection. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

8. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights under applicable privacy laws (such as the GDPR or the CCPA), including the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of personal information about you, and the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority. Because we do not maintain user accounts and do not store identifying personal information on our servers, in most cases the data we hold about you is limited to non-identifying diagnostic data and short-term access logs. To exercise any rights you may have, contact us at the address in Section 11.

You can also disable crash and diagnostic reporting at any time by using the relevant control in the App's settings (if provided) or by adjusting your device's analytics settings. Likewise, you can revoke consent to training-session data collection at any time from the App's settings; doing so stops further collection, but as noted in Section 1(d), data already incorporated into a trained machine-learning model cannot be removed from the model's weights.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last Updated" date above and, where appropriate, by additional notice within the App. Your continued use of the App after a change takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
