The specific location information collected depends on the features enabled by Customer.

Photos

OrbitWorks may process Employee profile photos and photos captured during enrollment, clock-in, clock-out, or verification workflows. Storage and retention of these photos may depend on the feature used and the retention settings described in this Policy or the Biometric Data Policy.

Payments are processed by Stripe. OrbitWorks may store Stripe customer identifiers, subscription identifiers, payment status, billing-plan information, and related transaction references. OrbitWorks does not store full payment card numbers.

Technical Information

We may collect technical information necessary to operate and secure the Service, including IP address, device information, browser or application information, authentication events, error logs, security events, and usage information.

2. How We Use Information

OrbitWorks may use personal information to:

  • provide and operate the Service;
  • authenticate users;
  • manage Customer accounts;
  • record clock events;
  • calculate hours, overtime, breaks, and estimated pay;
  • manage job sites and assignments;
  • provide face-verification or location-verification features;
  • generate alerts;
  • create reports and exports;

3. Customer Instructions

For information Customer submits about Employees, OrbitWorks generally processes that information to provide the Service according to Customer's configuration and instructions.

Customer determines which Employees are added, which features are enabled, which information is entered, and how workforce information is used for Customer's employment and business purposes.

Customer remains responsible for complying with laws applicable to its relationship with its Employees.

4. How We Share Information

OrbitWorks may share information with service providers that assist us in operating the Service. These providers may include:

  • Google Firebase and Google Cloud for hosting, authentication, databases, file storage, and infrastructure;
  • Stripe for subscription billing and payment processing;
  • Amazon Web Services and Amazon Rekognition for optional face-verification functionality; and
  • other infrastructure, security, analytics, communications, or support providers reasonably necessary to operate the Service.

These providers process information only as necessary to provide services to OrbitWorks or as otherwise permitted by applicable law and their agreements with us.

We do not sell Employee personal information.

We do not share Employee personal information with unrelated third parties for their own advertising or marketing purposes.

We may also disclose information where reasonably necessary to comply with law, respond to lawful legal process, protect the rights or security of OrbitWorks or others, investigate fraud or misuse, or in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, or sale of all or part of OrbitWorks.

5. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Service, satisfy legitimate business purposes, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

Default retention may include:

  • Employee profiles and profile photos: while the Customer account or Employee record remains active and for up to 90 days following applicable account termination or deletion, unless deleted earlier or retention is required by law.
  • Clock, attendance, timesheet, and related workforce records: while Customer maintains an active account and for up to three years following termination, unless Customer requests earlier deletion and deletion is legally and operationally permissible.
  • Account information: for the duration of the account and for a reasonable period afterward for security, billing, legal, fraud-prevention, and administrative purposes.
  • Billing and transaction records: for the period reasonably necessary to satisfy tax, accounting, fraud-prevention, and legal obligations.
  • Biometric information: according to the retention and destruction schedule described in the Biometric Data Policy.

Backup copies may remain for a limited period following deletion as part of routine disaster recovery and system backup processes before being automatically overwritten or deleted.

Customer is responsible for determining what workforce or employment records it is legally required to retain and should export required records before they are deleted from OrbitWorks.

6. Access, Correction, Export, and Deletion

Customers may be able to access, correct, export, or delete information through features available in the Service.

Employees should generally direct requests regarding information controlled by their employer to their employer.

Where appropriate, OrbitWorks will assist Customer with verified requests to access, correct, export, or delete personal information.

Certain information may be retained where required or permitted by law, including for fraud prevention, security, billing, legal compliance, or dispute resolution.

7. Security

OrbitWorks uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information.

These safeguards may include encryption in transit, authentication controls, role-based permissions, access restrictions, tenant separation, monitoring, and security controls appropriate to the Service.

No internet-connected service or information-storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and OrbitWorks cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Data Breaches and Security Incidents

If OrbitWorks becomes aware of a security incident involving personal information, OrbitWorks will investigate the incident and take reasonable steps to contain, mitigate, and remediate it.

Where required by applicable law or contractual obligation, OrbitWorks will provide legally required notifications to affected Customers or other parties.

9. Children's Information

OrbitWorks is designed for workforce and business use and is not intended for use by children except where a Customer lawfully employs or otherwise manages a minor and is permitted to process the minor's information under applicable law.

Customer is responsible for complying with any additional legal requirements that apply to workers under the age of majority.

10. International Processing

OrbitWorks and its service providers may process information in the United States and other locations where they operate.

Where legally required, appropriate safeguards will be used for international transfers of personal information.

11. Sale or Transfer of Business

If OrbitWorks is involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, financing, bankruptcy, or sale of assets, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

OrbitWorks may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.

Material changes will be reflected by an updated "Last updated" date and may also be communicated through the Service, by email, or through another reasonable method.
