Privacy PolicyCanine Data Privacy & Registry Record Safeguards

We collect information necessary to maintain accurate canine registration records and provide registrar services: • **Owner & Breeder Personal Data:** Full legal name, kennel name, email address, phone number, mailing address, and login credentials. • **Canine Identification Data:** Dog registered name, call name, breed standard, variety/pocket classification, date of birth, sex, coat color, DNA profiling records, and sire/dam parentage. • **Photographic & Documentary Evidence:** High-resolution canine photos, transfer bills of sale, veterinary health clearance documentation, and previous registry certificates. • **Transaction Records:** Payment records and order history processed via secure, PCI-DSS compliant third-party gateways (Stripe). We never store raw credit card numbers or security CVV codes on our servers.

Your data is utilized exclusively for legitimate registry operations, including: • Registering purebred and foundation canines in the official TBR digital stud book. • Generating tamper-proof digital certificates and QR-verified authenticity records. • Validating litter registrations and transferring puppy certificates to certified buyers. • Preventing canine identity theft, fraud, and duplicate registrations. • Communicating official registry status updates, certificate approvals, show sanctions, and customer service notices.

As an official canine stud book, certain canine lineage information is accessible for public verification to protect buyers and verify bloodlines: • **Publicly Verifiable:** Dog registered name, registration number, breed, sex, date of birth, coat color, sire/dam lineage, and certificate authenticity status. • **Protected & Confidential:** Owner home address, phone numbers, email addresses, payment receipts, and identity documents are strictly private and never disclosed to public searchers without written consent.

We apply enterprise-grade technical and organizational security controls to protect registry records against unauthorized access, loss, or manipulation: • TLS/SSL 256-bit encryption for all data in transit across our portal. • Cryptographic SHA-256 certificate verification hashes embedded in physical and digital documents. • Redundant cloud database backups and isolated administrative access levels. • Continuous monitoring for unauthorized login attempts and malicious activity.

TBR does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party advertisers. We engage trusted third-party service providers solely to operate our infrastructure: • **Payment Processing:** Stripe Inc. processes payments under strict bank-grade PCI-DSS compliance. • **Cloud Media Storage:** Cloudinary CDN hosts high-resolution canine registration imagery and verified certificates. • **Database Infrastructure:** Encrypted MongoDB Atlas cloud clusters host official ledger archives.

Registered owners and breeders hold the following rights regarding their data: • **Review & Correction:** You may view and correct inaccurate personal contact details or request correction of erroneous canine records upon providing certified documentation. • **Ownership Transfer:** Legitimate owners may initiate official transfer of registration certificates to new owners. • **Account Deletion:** You may request account closure; however, canine lineage remains permanently in the historic stud book to preserve generational integrity for subsequent offspring.

TBR reserves the right to update this Privacy Policy periodically. Significant changes will be announced on our website banner and in member dashboards. Continued use of our registry services after such updates constitutes acceptance of the amended terms.
