Information you share
We collect the information you submit when you create an account, apply for a puppy, request a reservation, contact Blaine, or use your family account. This may include your name, email, phone number, family and puppy preferences, messages, appointment requests, boarding requests, uploaded files, agreements, and payment reports. Venmo and Zelle payments are handled through those services; our website records the payment information reported by you and confirmed by Blaine.
How we use information
We use this information to answer questions, help match puppies with families, manage reservations and purchases, provide account access and shared puppy records, arrange appointments and eligible boarding requests, track agreements and payments, and support our customer relationships. We use website analytics to understand visits, traffic sources, and applications.
Family accounts and Google sign-in
You can create an account with an email and password. Passwords are stored as salted hashes. A one-time email confirmation is required before an email-based account can connect to private family records. Password recovery uses an expiring, single-use email link.
If you choose Google sign-in, we request your Google account identifier, name, email address, and basic profile information. We use this information to sign you in and connect records that match your confirmed email. Google sign-in does not give this website access to your Gmail inbox or Google Drive. When Google cannot establish ownership of a third-party email address, an additional email confirmation may be required. Account registration alone does not reserve a puppy, confirm a payment, or grant access to another family’s records.
Services that support the website
We use service providers for website hosting, data storage and backups, email delivery through Resend, Google sign-in and Analytics, and electronic agreements through SignWell. These services process information as needed to provide their features. If you request transportation through Pet Commute, your contact, pet, and trip details are shared with Pet Commute so its coordinators can respond. Payment services, Google, SignWell, and Pet Commute also have their own privacy notices for information you provide directly to them.
Cookies and browser storage
The website uses cookies to keep you signed in and support secure account access. Browser storage supports preferences and account display features. Analytics services may use cookies and device or browsing information to measure website activity. You can manage cookies through your browser; blocking account cookies may prevent sign-in.
Records and access
Family account access is checked on the server. Private puppy records, agreements, payment details, and shared files are limited to the family account authorized for them. We retain information used for account services, customer support, business records, and backups. Removing account access does not automatically remove purchase records, signed agreements, or backup copies.
Questions or requests
To ask about your information, request a correction, or discuss account or deletion requests, email blaine@sandiegogoldendoodles.com or call (858) 255-1980. Blaine may need to confirm your identity before handling a request. Some records may need to be retained for ongoing purchases or business recordkeeping.
