Pipie is made by Harrison Baker. We built this app because we love dogs and walks, not because we wanted your data. Here's a straightforward look at what we collect, why, and how you stay in control of all of it.
Your dog's profile. Name, breed, birthday, weight, and a photo if you add one. This powers everything in the app, from the portrait to the insights to the personality on your dog's passport. Stored in your account so it works across devices.
Walk data. GPS routes, distance, duration, pace, markers (treats, moments, incidents), mood ratings, and tags. This is literally what the app does. Without it, Pipie is just a nice dark screen.
Goals and streaks. Your daily walk target and streak history. Used to celebrate your consistency and be genuinely nice about it when life gets in the way.
Sign in with Apple. When you set up Pipie, you sign in once with your Apple ID. From that we receive and store your name and your email address, which may be a private Apple relay address if you choose, and we use them only to run your account. We never see your password. We never market to you, and we never share these with anyone.
Anonymous analytics. We use PostHog (EU servers) to understand how people use Pipie. These events are anonymous, contain zero personal information, and help us make the app better. You can turn this off entirely in Settings.
Crash reports. We use Sentry (EU servers) to find out when something breaks. These contain stack traces and device info. No personal information. Just enough for us to fix the bug and feel bad about it.
No tracking across other apps or websites. No selling your data. No renting it. No sharing it with advertisers. No ads, full stop. No using your data to train AI models. Your walks are yours.
When you add a photo of your dog, it gets sent once to create the portrait. After that, the photo is removed from our servers. The finished portrait lives on your device and backs up to your account for other devices. Your original photo is not kept by us or by the service that generates the portrait.
Your data stays in the UK and EU. It sits on Supabase servers in London, analytics go through PostHog's EU servers, and crash reports through Sentry's servers in Germany. We chose UK and EU data centres on purpose.
As long as you have an account. Delete your account (in Settings) and everything goes, permanently, from our servers, immediately. No 30 day grace period. No hidden backup. Gone.
Anonymous analytics events stick around for 12 months. Crash reports follow Sentry's default retention. Neither of these contain anything that identifies you.
You're in control. Under GDPR and UK data protection law:
Supabase stores your data and handles authentication. EU region. Their privacy policy.
PostHog handles anonymous analytics. EU region. Write only. Their privacy policy.
Sentry handles crash reports. EU region. Write only. Their privacy policy.
fal.ai generates your dog's portrait from the photo you provide. The photo is sent once, the portrait comes back, and neither we nor fal.ai keep the original. Their privacy policy.
Apple handles sign in and push notifications. Their privacy policy.
Pipie isn't built for children under 13 and we don't knowingly collect their data. If you think a child has given us data, let us know and we'll remove it.
If we change something meaningful here, we'll update the date at the top and let you know in the app. We won't sneak anything past you.
Email us at hello@pipie.app and we'll sort it out.
