Privacy Policy (English)
Last updated: 2025-12-05
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how FEM Software Inc. (“we”, “our”, or “us”) collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our mobile application (“the App”).
We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how your data is handled.
⸻
2. Data Collection
2.1 Information You Provide
The App stores the following information locally on your device:
• Time entries
• Client and project information
• Hourly rates, taxes, and invoicing details
• Notes for time entries
• User preferences and settings
We do not collect or transmit this data to external servers.
⸻
2.2 Location (Geo) Data — Only If You Enable It
If you grant the App permission to access your location, we may collect:
• Precise or approximate location at the moment a time entry starts or stops
• Location snapshots used for features such as place tagging or automatic start/stop (if enabled)
Important details:
• Geo data is stored only on your device.
• Geo data is never transmitted, never uploaded to a server, and never shared unless you manually export a report containing it.
• You may disable location access at any time through your device’s system settings.
⸻
2.3 Automatically Stored Local Data
The App may store the following information on-device only:
• Diagnostic logs
• UI configuration data
• Cached values to improve performance
Again, none of this leaves your device unless you explicitly export it.
⸻
3. Data Usage
All collected data is used exclusively to operate the App and enhance your personal time-tracking experience.
We use your data to:
• Record and manage time entries
• Associate entries with clients, projects, or locations
• Generate reports, invoices, and summaries
• Enable optional features such as location-based tagging
We do not:
• Sell your data
• Share your data with third parties (except for billing processors)
• Transfer your data off your device
⸻
4. Billing & Subscription Data
If you purchase a subscription or product through the App:
• Payments are processed by Apple (App Store) or Google (Play Store).
• We do not receive or store your credit card or billing details.
• We may store a local flag to reflect your subscription status for unlocking premium features.
⸻
5. User Choices & Controls
You can:
• Enable or disable Location Services at any time
• Delete or edit any entry, client, or project
• Reset all data within the App (irreversibly)
• Export your data manually
• Remove the App (this deletes all local data)
Because your data stays on the device, deleting the App erases everything unless you export it first.
⸻
6. Data Security
We rely on:
• System-provided secure storage
• App sandboxing
• OS-level encryption where available
Your personal device security (passcode, backups) directly affects data safety.
⸻
7. Children’s Privacy
The App is not designed for children under 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
⸻
8. International Use
The App may be used worldwide.
As data remains on your device, international data transfer laws minimally apply, but you retain all rights granted under your local privacy regulations.
⸻
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy periodically.
Changes will be reflected in the App and/or on our website.
