Last updated: 6 September 2026
Scatty Hen is a UK poultry-record keeping service. This notice explains the information used to provide the service and the choices available to account holders.
Information we use
- Account information such as email address and display name.
- Poultry records you choose to enter, including birds, photos, eggs, weights, housing, care tasks, animal health/medication records and feed records.
- Technical information needed for login, security, syncing and push notifications, including a device/browser push subscription when you enable notifications.
Why we use it
We use this information to provide and secure your account, sync your records across devices, calculate reminders and provide the features you request. We do not currently use advertising trackers or sell account data.
Service providers
Scatty Hen uses specialist hosting and database providers, including Supabase and Netlify, to operate the service. These providers may process information on our behalf under their own security and data-processing arrangements.
Storage and retention
Records are kept while your account is active unless you delete individual records or request account deletion. Backup and security copies may persist for a limited period where technically necessary.
Your rights
Depending on UK data-protection law, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict or receive a portable copy of your personal data, and to object to some processing. The Settings page provides a data export and a way to request deletion. You can also complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office if you believe your data has been handled improperly.
Cookies and local storage
Scatty Hen uses storage that is necessary for sign-in, security, app preferences, offline/PWA behaviour and notification functionality. No advertising or analytics cookies are currently included.
Push notifications
Notifications are optional. Your browser or device asks for permission before they are enabled. You can disable Scatty Hen push notifications for the current device from Settings, and you can also revoke notification permission in your browser/device settings.
Children
Scatty Hen is not intended to collect personal information from children under 13 without appropriate adult involvement.
