How our customer's information is used and protected.

Pet*iD is about protecting our customers' pets with high quality Identification. Aside from food, water and shelter, this is the most important pet owner responsibility.

To do this, we use all the standard safety procedures, plus some of our own. We use a programming language that is not commonly used in mainstream data management. This requires special talent from a unique and small group of programmers. We also use Mac servers that are less vulnerable to viruses, spy ware and hackers. Our entire website and credit card processing is SSL Certified and powered by PayPal.

Those pet owners using our system are provided with tools that give them complete control over the information related to them and their pets. Their information is only made available through the unique Pet*iD tag that their pet is wearing. Pet*iD Short Cut Home has been recognized by many publications and organizations as the best pet identification there is.

Is this web site complicated and hard to use?

Answer: No! We went to great effort to make the Pet*iD web site as user friendly as possible. There is a separate starting point for each function with a step by step guide to assist you in setting up and getting the most out of all the pet care services Pet*iD Short Cut Home has to offer.

My pet never gets loose. Why do I need any kind of pet ID at all?

Answer: Nothing is ever going to go wrong until it does. Common wisdom is to always be prepared, and visible identification is the first step in responsible pet care.

My pet already has a chip implant. Why do I need an old-fashioned tag?

Answer: Believe it or not, when compared to visible identification, the chip is and always will be 2nd place to a visible Pet*iD tag, although it is a good backup system. It's a fundamental fact that nothing beats visible identification. Do you want your best friend to find you or an animal control officer? The chip requires a special reader, and there are several different readers. You need the right one, and most people don't have any. I don't, do you? Think about what you would do if you found a lost pet with a Pet*iD tag and an implanted chip. Which one would you be able to use?

Why isn’t my phone number and address on a tag good enough?

Answer: If your pet gets lost, and the tag’s information is out-of-date, that tag isn’t any good. Unlike other tags, Pet*iD tags never need to be changed. The contact information can be updated online anytime for free, without changing your pet’s ID tag. Your situation can change dramatically, without giving you time to replace a standard tag, such as in a natural disaster like hurricane Katrina. Being able to update your contact information while going through the relocation process is priceless!
