Carcirus Absence Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Carcirus Absence ("the App") collects, uses, shares, and protects information when used on iOS devices and as distributed via the Apple App Store. By using the App, you agree to this Policy.

Who we are

• Developer: Carcirus Absence
• Contact: [email protected]

If you have questions about this Policy or our data practices, email us at the contact above.

Data we collect

We collect the minimum data needed to operate core features such as time tracking, account management, and app reliability.

1. Account and organization data
   • Name, email address, password or authentication tokens
   • Organization, team, role
2. Attendance and time tracking data
   • Clock‑in and clock‑out timestamps
   • Work session duration, breaks, and schedule information
   • Optional notes related to attendance
3. Files and media you choose to provide
   • Photos or documents uploaded as evidence of presence or for HR records

We do not collect sensitive personal data unless explicitly provided by you or your organization for a defined purpose.

iOS permissions we request and why

The App requests permissions only when a feature requires them. iOS will show a system prompt and you can allow or deny each request. You can change these later in iOS Settings.

• Camera (NSCameraUsageDescription)

  Purpose: Capture photos when you choose to attach an image for verification or documentation. Access occurs only when you initiate capture.

• Photos/Library (NSPhotoLibraryAddUsageDescription or NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription)

  Purpose: Let you select an existing photo to upload, or save an export/report to your photo library when you choose to. We only access the specific item you select.

• Network access

  Purpose: Sync attendance data with the server, authenticate accounts, deliver updates, and support customer service. (Standard internet connectivity; not a user‑grantable permission.)

We do not access or use permissions for purposes unrelated to the App’s features.
