Privacy policy
Location: Field Time is intended for crews working in Texas. This draft is written for that use.
Who this covers
This draft describes how a Field Time server handles information when you use the app. The company that hosts this server is responsible for the live system. This is beta software.
Location snapshots
The app saves one GPS snapshot only when you clock in, clock out, start or end a break, or switch job sites. It does not track your location in between punches, and it does not follow you in the background.
What else is stored
We store your name, role, company, optional email or PIN, punches (time, job site, optional notes and photo), hours and overtime calculations, settings, and any feedback you submit. Pay rates are visible to the company owner (and as the owner has configured for crew leads).
Who can see your data
People in your own company can see data according to their role: employees see their own punches and hours; crew leads can manage crew, sites, and timesheets; the owner can also see pay and backups. Other companies on the same server cannot see your company’s data. The operator who runs the server can access the database for maintenance, troubleshooting, and backups.
Retention
Punches, photos, and account data stay on the server until the company owner deletes or restores them, or until the operator removes the server. If off-server backups are configured, copies are kept according to that retention policy (by default, the most recent 14 copies and not longer than 30 days, unless the operator sets something else).
Cookies and session
The app uses a session cookie to keep you signed in and a CSRF cookie to protect form submissions. These are not used for advertising.
Beta and no warranty
Field Time is in beta and is provided as-is, without a warranty of any kind. Please also read the Terms of use.
