What is Paw Stomp 🐾

Protect your best friend's paws! Hot pavement can cause serious injury, but it's hard to know the real temperature just by looking. Paw Stomp is an experimental tool designed to give you a better idea before you and your dog leave the house.

HOW IT WORKS Paw Stomp is a novelty ground temperature estimator. It uses a proprietary algorithm that combines data from your phone's camera (to analyze the surface) with local weather information to generate an ESTIMATE of the ground temperature in real time.

FEATURES

• Smart Temperature Estimates: Point your camera at the ground for an on-the-spot temperature estimation.

• Proactive Warnings: The app is designed to alert you if its algorithm determines the ground is likely UNSAFE for your pet's paws.

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: YOUR JUDGMENT IS PARAMOUNT Please understand that Paw Stomp is an informational tool, not a measurement device.

• It's an ESTIMATE: The reading is based on an algorithm and cannot account for all environmental variables.

• It Warns, It Doesn't Approve: Our app will only provide a warning if conditions are estimated to be UNSAFE. It will NEVER give you an "all-clear" or tell you that it is "safe" to walk. The absence of a warning does not guarantee safety.

• You Are the Final Decision-Maker: The most reliable safety tool is you. Always physically test the surface with the back of your hand for 5-7 seconds before walking your dog.

Every little bit of information helps when it comes to the well-being of our pets. Think of Paw Stomp as one more tool in your toolkit—because any benefit to your dog's health is a win!

Privacy Policy for Paw Stomp

Effective Date: September 26, 2025

Jennings Applied Media ("we," "us," or "our") operates the Paw Stomp mobile application. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy outlines our data practices, explaining what information the App uses, what little information we collect, and why.

Our core privacy principle is On-Device Processing. Paw Stomp is designed to perform its key functions directly on your iPhone. Sensitive data from your camera and GPS is processed in real-time on your device and is never transmitted to, stored on, or viewed by our servers.

1. Information We Do Not Collect or Transmit

We want to be explicit about the data we never access. We do not collect, store, or transmit any of the following sensitive information from your device:

• Photos or Videos: The App does not save or upload any images or videos from your camera.

• Precise Location History: We do not track or store a history of your location.

• Personal Identifiers: We do not collect your name, address, phone number, contacts, or other personal information stored on your device.

2. Information We Do Collect

Our data collection is strictly limited to what is essential for basic app functionality and stability.

• Login Information: If you choose to create an account, we collect the credentials you provide (such as an email address and a secure password hash). This information is used exclusively for account authentication and management.

• Anonymous Crash and Performance Data: We collect non-personal, anonymous, and aggregated data if the App crashes. This helps us diagnose and fix bugs to improve the App's stability. This data is not linked to your personal account or device ID.

3. Device Permissions

Paw Stomp requests certain permissions to enable its features. Here is why we need them and how the associated data is handled:

• Location (GPS)

  • Purpose: To provide an accurate ground temperature estimate, the App uses your current location to fetch relevant local weather data, such as ambient temperature, cloud cover, and sun angle.

  • Data Handling: Your location data is used for a one-time calculation on your device to retrieve weather information. Your location is not tracked, stored, or sent to our servers.

• Camera

  • Purpose: The App uses your camera to analyze ground surface characteristics (e.g., pavement, grass, sand) and sun exposure in real-time. This analysis is a key part of the temperature estimation algorithm.

  • Data Handling: The camera feed is processed live, directly on your device. No images or videos are ever saved to your phone's gallery or transmitted to us.

• Notifications

  • Purpose: To provide you with timely and useful alerts. For example, the App can send you a notification if the estimated ground temperature in your area becomes potentially unsafe for paws.

  • Data Handling: You have full control over notification permissions in your device settings. We do not use notifications for marketing purposes.

4. Data Security

We use industry-standard administrative and technical security measures to protect the very limited data (login credentials and anonymous crash logs) that we do collect. Since the most sensitive data (GPS, Camera) never leaves your device, it remains secured by your phone's own security systems.

5. Children's Privacy

Our App is not intended for use by anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected such information, we will take steps to delete it.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Effective Date" at the top. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.

7. Contact Us

Jennings Applied Media LLC website is owned by Jennings Applied Media LLC, which is a data controller of your personal data.

If you disagree with any part of the terms, then you do not have permission to access the App.

1. Description of Service

The Paw Stomp App is a tool designed to provide an estimate of ground surface temperatures based on available data, such as local weather and user-provided inputs via the device's camera. The purpose of the App is to serve as a supplementary guide for pet owners to assess the potential risk of hot surfaces to their pets' paws.

2. Acknowledgment of Risk and Disclaimer of Warranty

This App provides an ESTIMATE ONLY and is not a substitute for a direct physical measurement device or for personal judgment. You, the user, acknowledge and agree to the following:

• For Informational Purposes Only: The temperature reading provided by the App is an algorithm-based estimation. Actual ground temperatures can vary significantly due to factors not fully captured by the App, including but not limited to direct sun exposure, surface material (asphalt, concrete, wood), humidity, and microclimates.

• User Judgment is Final: The safety of your pet is your sole responsibility. You should always use your own judgment and common sense. Before allowing your pet to walk on a potentially hot surface, you should physically test the surface yourself (e.g., with the back of your hand). Never rely solely on the App's estimate to determine if a surface is safe.

• "AS IS" Basis: The App is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE," without any warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
