Whisker · Last updated 6 November 2026
Whisker is a cat breed app made by Kimama Apps. This page explains what the app collects, why, and the choices you have. If anything is unclear, email support@kimama.app.
What we collect
- Photos you scan. Your photo goes to our server so we can identify the breed. We shrink it and remove hidden details, such as where it was taken, before it reaches the AI. We don't keep the photo unless you save the scan.
- Scan results. The breed, how sure the AI was, a short description and the date stay in your account, even for scans you don't save.
- Saved scans. With Premium, we keep the photo of each scan you save in your account so you can see it again. Without Premium, a saved scan keeps its breed and details, but not the photo.
- Ask AI chats. We keep your questions and the answers in your account. If you ask about a scan, a small copy of that photo stays with the chat.
- Account ID. The app creates a random ID for you. You don't need to give us your name or email to use Whisker.
- Sign-in details. If you choose to sign in with Google or Apple, we get your email address and name from that login, so your collection can follow you to a new phone.
- Purchases. If you subscribe, we keep your subscription status and the date it ends. The App Store handles the payment, and we never see your card details.
- Daily usage. We count your scans and questions each day to apply the daily limits.
- App activity and crash reports. We record things like a finished scan or a saved breed, and crash details such as your device type and system version. This helps us fix problems and improve the app. It doesn't include your photos or your questions.
The AI we use
Whisker needs AI to name breeds and answer questions. With your permission, your photos and questions go to a third-party AI service. The app asks before the first time, and you can change your mind in Settings under Share with AI. Scanning and Ask AI can't work while it's off.
We use the service with zero data retention turned on. That means the companies running the AI don't keep what you send after they answer, and don't use it to train AI, except where the law requires it.
Who else sees your data
We don't sell your data, and Whisker has no ads. Besides the AI service, we use companies that provide our cloud hosting and storage, our analytics and crash reports, and our subscription management. They handle data for us so the app can work. We may also share data if the law requires it.
These companies may store data on servers outside your country, including in the United States.
How long we keep it
Your scans and chats stay in your account until you delete them or your account. Saved photos stay while you have Premium. When Premium ends, they stay for 30 more days, and then we delete them, along with the small photos in your chats. Your scans and chats stay. Analytics and crash records are kept by our providers for a limited time. Technical server logs can stay for about 30 days.
Your choices
- Delete a scan or a chat in the app.
- Turn off Share with AI in Settings.
- Delete your account in Settings. This removes your account, scans, photos and chats from our servers. It doesn't cancel a subscription, so cancel that first in your Apple account settings.
- Email us to ask what we hold about you, or to correct or delete it.
Children
Whisker isn't meant for children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their data. If you think a child has used it, email us and we'll delete their data.
Changes
If we change this policy, we'll update this page and the date at the top.
