Gemstone Bulldogges respects the privacy of every family who reaches out to us. This policy explains what information we collect through this website, how we use it, and the choices you have.
Information We Collect
We collect the information you choose to share with us: your name, email address, phone number, mailing location, and the details you provide in a puppy application, guardian home inquiry, litter notification request, or general message.
We do not collect payment card details through this website. Any payment arrangements are handled separately and directly with Gemstone Bulldogges.
How We Use Your Information
We use your information to respond to inquiries, review puppy and guardian home applications, communicate about upcoming litters when you request notifications, and provide ongoing family support after a puppy goes home.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
Litter Notifications
If you submit your email address to be notified about upcoming litters, we use that address only to contact you about Gemstone Bulldogges litters and related program updates. You may ask to be removed at any time by replying to any message or emailing us directly.
Third-Party Services and Links
Our application form, store, and several educational resources are hosted by third parties. When you follow a link to an outside site or submit a third-party form, that provider's own privacy policy governs the information you share there. We encourage you to review those policies.
Data Retention and Security
We retain application and inquiry information for as long as it is useful for placement decisions and ongoing family support. We take reasonable steps to protect the information we hold, though no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
Children's Privacy
This website is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Your Choices
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of the personal information we hold about you by contacting us at the address below. We will respond within a reasonable time.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as our program and services change. The revised policy applies from the date it is posted on this page.
