Privacy Policy
How we handle your information.
Introduction
Hope Klee Kai ("we", "our" or "us") is a small family breeder in Story, Arkansas. This policy explains what this website collects, why, and who else sees it.
What we collect
When you send a message through the contact form:
- Your name, email address and, if you give it, your phone number
- The subject and the message you write
- The network address the form was sent from, to protect the forms from abuse
When you send an adoption application:
- Your name, phone number, email address and date of birth
- Your postal address
- Your answers to the questions on the form, which include the ages of any children in your household, whether you rent and what your landlord permits, the dogs you have owned before, and what you are looking for in a puppy
- The network address the form was sent from
Three people who never visited this website
The application asks you for your veterinarian’s name and contact details, and for the name and email address of two personal references. Those are three other people’s details, given by you. Please ask them first.
We collect them for one thing: so that we can contact the veterinarian and the references you named about your application, if we need to. We do not add them to anything, we do not write to them for any other reason, and we do not pass them on.
What we use it for
- To read and answer your message
- To consider your application and talk to you about it
- To contact the veterinarian and the references you named, if we need to
- To keep a record of the applications and messages we have received
We do not send marketing email, and we do not sell your information to anyone.
Who else sees it
The companies that host this website and deliver its email handle the information in the course of doing that, and only for that. We may disclose information where the law requires it. Nobody else sees an application.
Cookies and measurement
This website sets no advertising cookies and builds no profile of you. It uses a session cookie so the forms work, a Cloudflare Turnstile check on the forms to keep automated submissions out and Cloudflare’s privacy-preserving analytics, which counts visits without identifying you.
Keeping it safe
The website is served over an encrypted connection, applications are stored in an account that only we can sign in to, and access is limited to the people who need it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot promise absolute security.
Your rights
You may ask us what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. So may a veterinarian or a reference whose details someone gave us. Use the contact form or call, and tell us enough to find the record.
Children
This website is not meant for children, and the forms are for an adult to complete. We do not knowingly collect information directly from a child. The application does ask for the ages of the children in your household, and that answer is part of your application rather than information collected from them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes are posted on this page with the date above.
