Security & Privacy

Built for Brazil, responsibly

Fraud and animal cruelty are real risks. The platform was designed to fight them from day one.

  • LGPD compliant

    Your data is handled with minimization, explicit consent, and the right to deletion — in accordance with Brazil's data protection law.

  • Verified NGOs

    Every registered organization goes through tax-ID validation and activity history checks before receiving the verification badge.

  • Active fraud protection

    Fake adoptions and donations are the biggest risks in this space. Our reporting and moderation system acts on every alert.

  • Reporting system

    Any user can report suspicious posts, NGOs, or adoptions. All reports are investigated by our team.
