Internal operations

These photos may be used for documentation purposes, such as pet’s condition before a grooming appointment, pet’s condition after a grooming appointment and medical conditions observed during a grooming appointment.
  We may also use the photographs on social media and may include personal information such as the pet’s first name, age, breed or gender. Other customer information will never be identified in our company’s social media posts.

• Determining your qualifications for a position within our company

 

How we intend to share

We generally do not share customer information with third parties. Exceptions are outlined below. If sharing your information were needed beyond these exceptions, we would seek explicit permission from you.

Veterinary

In an instance where a pet requires medical attention by a licensed veterinarian, the company may be required to share the customer’s and pet’s personal information with the third party veterinarian. Pet Love Mobile Grooming does not provide any veterinary services.

Medical Institution
In an instance where one of our employees requires medical attention after injury from a customer’s pet, we may be required (by the state of Texas) to provide customer information to the consulting medical institution. It is the state law in Texas for all pets to be up to date on their Rabies vaccinations and medical institutions will directly ask our customers for a copy of this certificate.

Legal Requirements

We may disclose information we collect when we believe disclosure is appropriate to comply with the law; to enforce or apply applicable terms and conditions and other agreements; or to protect the rights, property or safety of our company, our employees, our customers, pets in our care or others. This may include notifying the appropriate parties when we believe we have witnessed animal abuse/cruelty; including hoarding or pets that have been left in unsafe or unlivable conditions.

Sharing Aggregate Information with Third Parties

We may share aggregate non-personally identifiable information (information that does not directly identify an individual) with third parties for any lawful purpose.

Automated information collection

 

A “cookie” is a small data file that can be placed on your hard drive when you visit certain Web sites. If you are a customer who has created a login at petlove.com, we may use a cookie to save your settings.  These cookies do not enable third parties to access any of your customer information.

Social media links

Our site www.petlove.com includes social media links as a convenience. Social media sites are hosted by a third-party and are not under the control of Pet Love Mobile Grooming. Your interactions with those features are governed by the privacy policies of the companies that provide them. We do not control use of these cookies and expressly disclaim responsibility for information collected through them.

Information from other sources

We may collect data that’s publicly available. For example, information you submit in a public forum (e.g. a blog, chat room, or social media) can be read, collected, or used by us and others, and could be used to personalize your experience. You are responsible for the information you choose to submit in these instances. The information you choose to share in public reviews about the company may be used in the same capacity.

How your personal information is protected

Security Methods

We have security measures in place to protect your personal information. We use industry standards to make every effort when transmitting sensitive data (such as credit/debit cards) to ensure this information is not lost or stolen. However, we cannot guarantee any website, database or system is completely secure or ‘hacker proof.’ You are also responsible for taking reasonable steps to protect your personal information against unauthorized disclosure or misuse.

E-mail Security

If you receive an e-mail that looks like it is from us asking you for your personal information, do not respond. This is likely a ‘phishing’ scheme. Pet Love Mobile Grooming will never request your password, user name, credit card information or other personal information through e-mail.

We recognize the particular importance of protecting privacy where children are involved. As our service visits customer’s homesteads, we do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information online from children under the age of 18.
