Anonymized data for research purposes (AniLedger)

AniLedger may collect and use anonymized, de-identified animal health data to support scientific research, veterinary medicine advancement, and wildlife conservation efforts. This section describes how that data is handled.

What is anonymized

Before any data is used for research purposes, all personal information is permanently stripped. This includes your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, and user account identifiers. Animal names are replaced with randomly generated identifiers. Geographic information is limited to the state or regional level only — no street addresses, city names, or ZIP codes are included in research datasets.

How research data is used

Anonymized data may be shared with universities, government agencies (such as the USDA and NIH), veterinary research organizations, and conservation foundations. The purpose of this sharing is to improve animal health outcomes, advance veterinary medical knowledge, and support conservation efforts for domestic and wild species.

No re-identification

Research datasets are structured so that no individual user or animal can be identified. The de-identification process is irreversible — once personal details are removed, they cannot be reconnected to the research data.

Your choice

Participation in research data contribution is entirely voluntary. You can opt in or opt out at any time through the Settings screen within the AniLedger app. Opting out does not affect your access to any app features or your subscription status.

Verdix — data collected

Verdix collects the following information to provide its cultivation intelligence features:

• Plant photos: Used for AI plant identification. Photos are processed to identify species and provide care recommendations. Photos are stored in your account and are not shared with third parties.
• Garden layouts: Garden bed designs and planting plans you create within the app are stored in your account.
• Location data: Used to determine your USDA hardiness zone, provide weather-based alerts, frost warnings, and seasonal care adjustments. Location is stored at the regional level only — no precise GPS coordinates are retained on our servers.
• Care schedules: Watering, fertilizing, pruning, and harvest records you log within the app.
• IoT sensor data: If you connect soil sensors or greenhouse monitors, readings (moisture, temperature, light, humidity) are stored in your account to power dashboards and alerts.
• Financial records: Expense and revenue data you enter for farm or garden tracking. This data stays in your account and is not shared.

Verdix does not export or share your data for research purposes. All data remains in your account and is deleted upon account deletion. See the account deletion page for details.

Your rights

You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us at the address above. We will respond within 30 days.

We may update this policy as the service evolves. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
