Coat · Last updated: October 17, 2026
Coat is made by Karol Jaworski ("we"). This policy explains what leaves your device when you use Coat, who receives it and why. Questions: karoljaworsky@gmail.com.
What you enter in Coat is stored on your device.
The AI Grooming Guide (part of Coat Pro) sends, each time you tap Get Advice: the question you type (or a suggested question you tap) and, from that one dog's grooming card, its breed, age, weight, temperament, cut style, behaviour notes, fear triggers, medical alerts, allergies and current shampoo, as you typed them. The dog's name is replaced with "this dog". Never sent: the dog's name and photos, the owner's name, phone, address and access notes, prices and revenue, your other dogs, your business profile, earlier questions and answers, and your Apple Account. Coat asks before the first request and sends nothing until you tap Allow; you can switch the AI Grooming Guide off at any time in Profile > AI Grooming Guide. Answers are general grooming guidance, not veterinary advice. It goes to xAI (Grok), which writes the answer.
Requests pass through our server, hosted on Cloudflare, which forwards them without storing their content. We don't add your Apple ID or email address to these requests, and we don't keep copies of them. The provider processes each request under its own privacy policy: xAI (Grok). Please don't enter information you wouldn't want to share with the AI provider.
We process this because you asked for it and allowed it (GDPR art. 6(1)(a) and (b)); you can withdraw your permission at any time in Profile > AI Grooming Guide.
If you sign in with Apple, Apple gives the app an anonymous identifier and, only if you choose to share them, your name and email address. They stay on your device (and in your iCloud if sync is on); we don't run an account server.
Purchases in Coat are processed by Apple. We use RevenueCat to keep track of your subscription status; RevenueCat receives the purchase records Apple provides and an app user ID, never your name or the content you store in the app. RevenueCat Privacy Policy.
If you ask Apple for a refund of a purchase made in Coat, Apple may ask us for information about that purchase. By making a purchase, you consent to us (through RevenueCat) sharing the following with Apple for that request: how long you have had the app, how much of the purchased period has been used, whether the purchase was delivered, and the total amount you have spent and been refunded in Coat. We may also tell Apple whether we think the refund should be granted. Apple makes the final decision. We never share the content you store in the app.
Coat contains no analytics or advertising SDKs. We do not track you across apps or websites, and we do not sell your data or share it for advertising.
Coat is not directed at children under 13.
You can delete the data on your device by deleting the app. If you are in the EU, UK or a similar jurisdiction, you have the right to access, correct, delete and move your data, to object to its processing, and to complain to your data protection authority. To exercise any of these rights, email karoljaworsky@gmail.com.
We update this page whenever what Coat sends changes; the date at the top shows the current version.
