Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2026. This page explains what information may be collected when you visit or use MyPetBreed.com, and how that information is used.
1. Photos you upload
When you use one of our photo-based tools, you may upload a photo of your dog or cat.
Where possible, the photo is resized in your browser before being sent to a third-party processing service to generate your requested result.
We do not intentionally store uploaded photos on MyPetBreed after processing, and we do not sell uploaded photos.
Uploaded photos may be transmitted to third-party service providers that process images on our behalf. These providers may have their own privacy policies and data-handling practices.
MyPetBreed does not use uploaded pet photos to identify you personally.
2. No account or payment details required
You can use MyPetBreed without creating an account.
We do not require your name, postal address, telephone number, or payment information to use our free tools.
If you voluntarily contact us by email, we may receive the information you provide, such as your email address and the contents of your message. We use this information only to respond to your inquiry and provide support.
3. Information collected automatically
When you visit MyPetBreed, certain technical information may be collected automatically by our hosting, security, analytics, or other service providers. This may include:
- IP address
- Browser type and version
- Device type and operating system
- Pages visited
- Referring website
- Date and time of visits
- Basic website usage information
This information may be used to operate, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the website and to understand general website traffic.
4. Analytics
We may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use MyPetBreed.
Google Analytics may use cookies or similar technologies and may collect information such as pages visited, approximate location, device information, browser information, and referring website.
We use analytics information primarily to understand website traffic, measure performance, and improve our services. We do not intentionally use Google Analytics to identify individual visitors.
5. Advertising and third-party cookies
We may display advertisements on MyPetBreed, including advertisements provided through Google AdSense and other advertising partners.
Google and other third-party advertising providers may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, or similar technologies to serve, measure, and personalise advertisements.
Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on a user's previous visits to this website or other websites.
Google's use of advertising cookies may enable Google and its partners to serve advertisements based on visits to this site and other sites on the internet.
You can manage or opt out of personalised advertising through Google Ad Settings. You may also manage certain third-party advertising preferences through aboutads.info.
Other third-party vendors or advertising networks may also serve advertisements on MyPetBreed. Their own privacy policies and advertising choices may apply.
You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect certain website functions or advertising preferences.
6. Third-party services
MyPetBreed uses the following third-party services to operate and improve the website:
- Google LLC – Gemini API (image analysis): uploaded pet photos are sent over an encrypted connection to produce your visual breed match. MyPetBreed does not keep the photo after processing. Google's handling is described in its own terms and privacy policy.
- Cloudflare, Inc. (hosting, content delivery and security): serves the website and helps protect it from abuse. It processes technical data such as IP addresses and request details.
- Google LLC – Google Analytics (analytics): measures aggregate site traffic and usage using cookies and similar identifiers.
- Google LLC – Google AdSense (advertising, if enabled): may serve ads and use cookies or identifiers as described in Section 5.

These providers may process limited information as necessary to provide their services.
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
7. Links to other websites
MyPetBreed may contain links to other websites, including partner websites or services such as Pawazo.
If you follow a link to another website, that website's own privacy policy and terms will apply.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party websites.
8. Children's privacy
MyPetBreed is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
If we become aware that we have knowingly collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
9. International data processing
Some of our third-party service providers may process information on servers located in countries other than the country where you are located.
Where applicable, information may therefore be transferred internationally in connection with providing website, analytics, advertising, hosting, or image-processing services.
