Security & privacy

Serious about the data you trust us with

Attendance data is personal data, and location data is more sensitive still. Here is exactly what Trackrr records, what it does not, and what happens to it.

Short answer

Trackrr records location only at check-in and check-out — not continuously in the background. Data is encrypted with TLS 1.3 in transit and AES-256 at rest, backed up daily, and accessible only to the roles you grant.

Employees can see exactly what has been recorded about them. You can export everything at any time, and we delete an organisation’s data from production and backups within 30 days of a written request.

Encrypted in transit and at rest

TLS 1.3 on every request, AES-256 on stored photos and records.

Automatic daily backups

Point-in-time recovery, so a lost phone never means a lost record.

Role-based multi-user access

Owners, admins, supervisors and viewers each see only what they should.

Location captured only on the clock

Trackrr records position at check-in and check-out, not around the clock.

Your data stays yours

Full export at any time, and deletion on request. No selling, no sharing.

Access from anywhere

Web dashboard on any browser, mobile app for the field, one source of truth.

On tracking people, honestly

Any tool in this category can be used well or badly, and it is worth being straight about that. Trackrr is built to verify that agreed work happened at an agreed place and time. It is not built to watch where someone goes during their day, and we have deliberately made that difficult: there is no continuous background location, no route trace, and no silent capture.

In practice, teams that introduce Trackrr as proof of work get a very different reception from teams that introduce it as surveillance. The single most useful thing you can do in week one is show your field staff their own screen — what gets recorded, what does not, and that they can see all of it themselves.

What we do not do

  • No continuous or background location tracking
  • No access to contacts, messages, call logs, photos or browsing
  • No microphone or camera access outside an explicit check-in
  • No selling or sharing of your data with third parties
  • No hidden or silent capture — the employee always initiates

Deleting your data

You can export everything at any point, including during and after cancellation. On written request we permanently delete your organisation’s data from production systems and backups within 30 days, and confirm when it is done.

Security and privacy questions

No. Location is captured at check-in and check-out, and optionally at each job update — not continuously in the background. Staff can see exactly what was recorded about them, which is usually what turns scepticism into acceptance in the first week.

A selfie image, GPS coordinates with an accuracy figure, a server-side timestamp, the site the visit belongs to, and any notes or photos the employee attaches. Nothing else is collected from the device — no contacts, no messages, no browsing, no continuous location.

Yes, and we think this matters. Each person can see their own check-ins, locations and hours in the app. Transparency is what makes location tracking acceptable to a field team rather than adversarial.
