Privacy

Cat Grimace Scale is designed to minimise data collection. This page explains what the site does and does not do with information from visitors.

Photos

Photos selected in the assessment tool are processed locally in your browser. The image is resized and displayed on your device so you can compare it with the reference illustrations. It is not uploaded to an application server and is not stored by this website. The photo remains in your browser session and is cleared when you close the assessment or your session ends.

Assessment results

The scores you enter are kept in your browser while you complete the assessment. The website does not create an account for you and does not store your individual assessment results on its servers.

Server logs and analytics

Like most websites, the hosting provider may keep basic technical logs such as pages requested, browser type, device type, and approximate location. Where analytics are enabled, the site may use aggregated information such as pages visited and device type to understand how the site is used and to improve the content. This information is used in aggregate and is not linked to individual photos or assessment scores.

Cookies and third-party advertising

The site may display advertising from third-party services such as Google AdSense. These services may use cookies or similar technologies to show ads and measure their performance. Third-party advertisers are responsible for their own data practices and provide their own opt-out tools. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings.

Data sharing

The website does not sell personal information. Information may be shared with service providers only where necessary to operate the site, such as hosting and analytics providers, or where required by law.
