LAST UPDATED — NOVEMBER 4, 2026
Who we are
KC Canine provides dog training, behavior modification, personal protection, and working K9 development in Connecticut, New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Pennsylvania. In this policy, "KC Canine," "we," "us," and "our" refer to KC Canine. You can reach us at kccaninetrainingservices@gmail.com or 203-505-8396.
Information you give us
When you submit an evaluation request, contact form, testimonial, or signed agreement, we may collect:
- Your name, email address, and phone number
- Your dog's name, breed, and age, and details about behavior, goals, and training history
- Any notes, photos, or files you choose to send us
- Your testimonial text and any photos you submit for publication
Providing this information is voluntary, but we can't schedule or deliver training without at least your name, contact details, and basic information about your dog.
Information collected automatically
We use analytics and advertising measurement tools that collect technical data when you visit this site: pages viewed, time on page, referring source, approximate location derived from IP address, device and browser type, and interactions such as clicking a call button or submitting the evaluation form. We do not collect payment card details through this website.
Cookies and advertising tracking
This site uses cookies and similar technologies through Google Analytics 4 and Google Ads conversion tracking. These tools help us understand which pages lead to evaluation requests and measure the performance of our advertising.
You can control or delete cookies in your browser settings, and you can opt out of Google's advertising personalization at adssettings.google.com or install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. Blocking cookies does not prevent you from using this site or contacting us.
How we use your information
- To respond to your evaluation request, quote a program, and schedule training
- To deliver training and follow-up sessions and keep records of your dog's progress
- To send appointment reminders and service-related updates
- To publish testimonials and photos you have submitted to us for that purpose
- To measure site and advertising performance and improve our services
- To comply with legal, tax, and insurance obligations
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not send marketing text messages without your consent.
Who we share it with
We share information only with service providers that help us operate: website hosting and database services, email delivery, scheduling, and Google Analytics and Google Ads. These providers process data on our behalf or as independent controllers under their own policies. We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the safety of a person or animal.
How long we keep it
Evaluation and contact records are kept while we are in contact with you and for a reasonable period afterward for follow-up and business records. Training records are kept for the duration of your relationship with us and as long as needed for insurance and legal purposes. Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings of those tools.
Your choices
You may ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, or ask us to stop contacting you, by emailing kccaninetrainingservices@gmail.com. We will respond within a reasonable time. If you are in a state with additional privacy rights, we will honor requests that apply to you.
Children
Our services are intended for adults. This site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the information you provide, including restricted access to client records. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as our services or tools change. The updated date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
