Privacy policy

What GetVetAtlas stores, why it is stored, and how to ask us to change or remove it.

What we collect

If you create an account, we store your email address, a hashed password, and the display name you choose. If you submit a tool, we store the details you enter, including vendor links and any notes you add.

Why we collect it

Account data lets you sign in, manage submissions, and receive review updates. Submission data lets an editor verify a tool against public sources before anything is published.

Analytics

We count page visits on our own server to understand which pages are useful. The counts are aggregate, we do not sell personal data, and we do not build advertising profiles.

Cookies

We set a session cookie so you stay signed in, a security cookie for verification images, and a preference cookie for light or dark mode. No advertising cookies are set.

Retention

Submission records and their evidence history stay published so readers can see how a record changed. You can ask us to close your account at any time.

Your requests

Email us to access, correct, or delete your account data. We respond to privacy requests at the address below and will confirm what was removed.

Children

GetVetAtlas is a professional reference for veterinary teams and is not directed at children.

Changes

If this policy changes in a way that affects your data, we will note the change on this page with its effective date.

Contact

Privacy requests go to the editorial inbox and are handled by the GetVetAtlas team.
