How LEV4PAWS.COM collects, uses, and protects information1. Operator
Database owner and service operator: Avraham Vadim. WhatsApp: 053-322-3111. Address: Emek Izrael 73, Ashqelon. Website: LEV4PAWS.COM.
2. Data collected
Registration and contact details, city and radius, profile and skills, animal and request information, service activity, consent records, reports, block appeals, and necessary technical logs. When the WhatsApp bot is contacted, the WhatsApp profile name, encrypted number identifier, language, message text or type, request topic, administrator-handoff status, and technical delivery status are processed. Business registration requires customer-facing and legal names, a registration number, category, city, address, selected map point and visibility mode, business phone, public email, receipt email, and a service description; moderation and subscription status, payment amounts and statuses, and receipt links and statuses are also processed. Internal statistics include business-card opens and contact actions, source, time, and a one-way pseudonymous visitor hash; contact content, raw IP addresses, and card data are not stored in those statistics. Site-visibility measurement stores the page path, language, source or campaign, aggregated LCP, CLS and INP performance values, and a one-way session hash; cookies, raw IP addresses, and the full referring URL are not stored for this measurement. Short-lived action counters with a pseudonymous identifier are used for spam protection, and owner actions and automated safety measures are recorded in a security audit log. If notifications are enabled voluntarily, selected topics, area, and the browser push subscription identifier are also stored.
3. Purposes
Profile creation, finding and coordinating help, sending selected urgent alerts, moderation, safety, support, business-subscription management, payment confirmation, receipt creation and delivery, pseudonymous internal statistics, fulfilling user requests, and meeting applicable legal obligations.
4. Visibility
A name or alias, city, deliberately rounded and displaced approximate-area point, role, skills, rating, listing, and animal photos may be public. After approval and only during an active period, a business name, category, description, and selected public contacts are public. In approximate mode, the public API returns only a displaced area point, the exact business point is encrypted, and its address stays hidden. In exact mode selected by the business owner, the entered address and exact point are published on the map and can be sent to Waze only after the user taps the route button. Exact coordinates of private requests are always encrypted and never returned by the public API; a Waze route is limited to the author and confirmed helper. The account owner's personal phone and email, receipt email, business registration number, payment status, private messages, and administrative records are not public.
5. Sharing and retention
Data is shared with infrastructure providers and the browser push service only as needed for the selected feature, and with authorities when law or safety requires. WhatsApp messages are received and sent through Meta's official WhatsApp Cloud API, and Meta processes them under its terms. Completed WhatsApp support history is eligible for cleanup after 180 days and technical webhook deduplication identifiers after 30 days. Pseudonymous visibility events and Web Vitals are eligible for cleanup after 180 days. A public request title and description may be sent to Google Cloud Translation so they can be shown in the selected language. Private message text is sent to Google Cloud Translation only after the user voluntarily enables translation in chat; users should not translate an exact address, password, or payment details. For the automatic pre-check, the browser downloads TensorFlow.js model files from Google Cloud Storage; the photo itself is not transmitted during that check and stays on the device. Encrypted exact coordinates are permanently deleted immediately after a request is resolved, finally closed, or rejected. Closed and rejected requests, including photos, chat, and claims, are eligible for cleanup after 180 days; resolved and expired requests after 365 days. Closed appeals and inactive first warnings are kept for 180 days, push delivery logs for 90 days, and the owner audit log for 365 days. Active profiles, active requests, requests with an open report, open appeals, and proof that a deletion request was completed are not automatically removed. The owner can generate a protected operational export; the service does not retain a separate copy of that file. Push can be disabled in the account area; verified deletion requests are completed within a reasonable period.
6. Security
The service uses sign-in through Google’s secure site, server-side authorization, text filtering, API minimization, logging, and protective HTTP headers. Incoming WhatsApp webhooks are checked against Meta's digital signature; the number identifier is encrypted, and only the owner can access the history and reply. The password is entered only on Google’s site and is never shared with LEV4PAWS.COM. Before storage, a photo is reduced on the device and the server independently removes EXIF, GPS, and other metadata; previously uploaded photos are cleaned when securely delivered. The local automatic check blocks a photo when a person is confidently detected, but never publishes an image by itself: uncertain results and detected animals remain in private quarantine until an admin decides. Text containing profanity or a direct insult is not saved: the first attempt triggers a warning and the second blocks the profile, subject to owner review. No system can guarantee absolute security.
7. Rights
Users can request access, correction, export, and deletion, withdraw optional consent, opt out of marketing, and ask the owner to review a block through the account area.
8. Updates
This policy changes with the service or law. After a material processing change, the service shows the new version and pauses posting, responding, chat, alerts, and protected routes until consent is renewed. Viewing, export, and deletion remain available.
