How Driyu keeps your home address off the public scan page

Driyu’s public scan page does not use the home-address field from your account. Your public text and photos still need a separate privacy check.

Quick answer: The account home-address field is excluded from the public scan page. There is no contact switch that publishes it. An address you type into public pet information or include in a photo can still be visible.

A note about privacy

Public recovery pages may show the information the owner chooses to provide or make visible. Review your settings and Driyu's current Privacy Policy for the latest details. Do not share information publicly that you are not comfortable making visible to a finder.

How the account address stays separate

The public recovery page uses selected account contact fields: name, phone, email, city and state, with visibility controls for the latter four. It does not fetch the account home-address field.

That separation does not inspect or remove addresses you add elsewhere. Keep home addresses, door codes and other private household details out of public behavior notes, distinguishing marks, finder instructions and photos.

What does show for location

City and state each have a visibility setting, visible by default. The current scan page shows them together only when both are visible and populated and the owner contact card is shown. That card requires a visible phone number or email. Hiding either city or state removes the combined location label.

How Driyu fits

Saving information in your account is different from publishing it on the recovery page. Review the public result after editing your pet’s information, especially any free-text fields or photo.

Frequently asked questions

Can I turn home address visibility on?

There is no home-address visibility switch. The account address is excluded. However, an address you put in public notes or a photo can appear, so review those separately.

Does my city show?

Only as part of the city/state label when both are visible and populated and the owner contact card appears. Turning on city alone does not make a city-only label appear.

Does this page read my saved account address?

An address may be saved in the account. The public scan page does not fetch that address field. This guide describes scan-page visibility, not a complete review of account storage or billing.

What if my pet is found near my home?

A finder can use the contact options you make available. When the pet or tag is marked lost, the page also offers a found-pet report. Arrange any handoff directly rather than publishing a home address.

How Driyu keeps your phone number controllable

You can choose whether your phone number appears on the public recovery page. This is an account setting shared by the pets you own. Hiding it leaves the other contact details you keep visible. The report form appears when the pet or tag is marked lost.
