Privacy Policy

Most of this website works without collecting any personal information about you. We collect information in three situations:

• If you email us. The email link on this site opens your own email app. When you send a message, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to include, such as your name and details about your pet.
• If you book an appointment. Bookings are made on a separate booking platform run by another company. Any details you enter there are held by that provider under its own privacy policy, not by this website.
• As you browse. This site uses Google Ads to measure how our advertising performs, and, when analytics is enabled, a website analytics service to see how the site is used. These services record information such as your general location, device and browser, the pages you open, and how you reached the site, and they store cookies on your device. We use this only as grouped statistics that do not identify you personally.

We use the information above to:

• reply to your enquiries and arrange grooming appointments;
• run and improve this website;
• see which parts of the site visitors find useful;
• measure the performance of our Google Ads advertising.

We do not sell your information.

This website uses Google Ads cookies to measure how our advertising performs, and, when analytics is enabled, analytics cookies to measure how the site is used. You can block or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings, and the site will still work.

Some parts of the site depend on other companies, each with its own privacy policy:

• a booking platform that handles appointments;
• Google Ads, which measures our advertising performance;
• an analytics service that measures site usage;
• the social media platforms our profile links point to.

When you follow a link to one of these external sites, their privacy policy covers anything you share there.

Enquiry emails stay in our email account. We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the reason you gave it, and we take reasonable care to keep it safe. Information held by the companies listed above is covered by their own policies.

Under the Privacy Act 2020 you can ask what personal information we hold about you, request a copy, and ask us to correct it. Email us to make a request. If our response does not satisfy you, you can contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner at privacy.org.nz.

We may update this policy. The date at the top shows when we last changed it.
