1. Information We Collect
We collect the following categories of information to provide attendance management services:
a. Personal & Identity Information
- Full name, employee ID, department/designation
- Contact details: email address and mobile number
- Login credentials – Employee ID with OTP-based verification
b. Biometric & Attendance Data
To register and verify attendance we collect:
- Biometric templates or hashes (fingerprint / face templates) captured via authorized biometric devices — templates are stored in encrypted form where supported
- Punch logs and attendance records (punch-in, punch-out, timestamps, device ID)
- Work hours, shift information, and related metadata
c. Location Data (Foreground and Background)
- Precise GPS coordinates when you mark attendance (punch in / punch out) through the App
- Location samples collected in the background for the “My Location Tracking” feature (see Section 2)
d. Device Data
- Device type, operating system, app version, IP address, and device identifiers
e. Usage & System Logs
- App usage logs, error reports, and analytics data to improve the App
- Audit trails for security and compliance
2. Background Location Disclosure
- What we collect: precise latitude and longitude, along with the time of each location sample.
- When we collect it: after you punch in, until you punch out. No background location is collected outside your punch-in session or if you deny the permission.
- Why we collect it: (i) to verify that attendance is marked at an authorized work location, and (ii) to show you and your employer your location history for the day under the “My Location Tracking” feature.
- Who can see it: you, and authorized administrators/HR of your employer organization. We do not sell this data or use it for advertising.
- How to control it: you can grant, deny, or withdraw location permission at any time in your device’s Settings → Apps → Tech Altimate → Permissions → Location. Withdrawing permission may limit location-based attendance features.
- Retention: location records are retained for as long as required by your employer’s attendance policy and applicable law, after which they are deleted or anonymized.
The App shows an in-app disclosure explaining this collection and asks for your consent before the Android location permission prompt is displayed.

5. Data Security
