Bark Design, Inc. maintains a strict office canine compliance policy.
This may include, but is not limited to, unsolicited belly rubs, excessive compliments, distribution of treats, spontaneous games of fetch, and temporary interruptions to normal business operations resulting from a leaf blowing past the office windows.
While no personally identifiable information is intentionally shared with our office dogs, visitors should be advised that they are highly skilled at identifying individuals carrying snacks.
Any tail wagging, happy greetings, or requests to throw tennis balls should not be interpreted as legally binding agreements or official company endorsements.
No dogs were involved in the collection, processing, storage, or protection of your personal information… although they remain very interested in supervising the process.
