Work Tracker – Privacy Policy
Effective date: July 23, 2026
Work Tracker is developed and operated by Vitaly Lebedev as an independent developer.
This Privacy Policy explains what information Work Tracker collects, how it is used, and the choices available to users.
By using Work Tracker, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Information We Collect
Account information
Work Tracker allows users to create an account using:
An email address and password
Google Sign-In
Depending on the selected sign-in method, we may receive and store information such as:
Email address
User identifier
Display name
Profile image, when provided through Google Sign-In
Authentication is handled using Firebase Authentication.
Work and attendance information
Work Tracker may collect and store information entered or generated by the user, including:
Work days
Shift start and end times
Break information
Working-hour preferences
Work-location settings
Attendance history
Notification preferences
Other information required to provide the app’s time-tracking features
This information may be stored locally on the user’s device and remotely using Firebase services.
Location information
Work Tracker may access the device’s precise or approximate location when the user grants location permission.
Location is used to provide features such as detecting arrival at a configured work location and sending arrival-related notifications.
The app may access location while running in the background when required for this feature.
Location access can be disabled at any time through the device settings. Disabling location access may prevent location-based features from working.
Crash and diagnostic information
Work Tracker uses Firebase Crashlytics to detect crashes, investigate technical problems, and improve application stability.
Crash and diagnostic information may include:
Device model
Operating-system version
App version
Crash logs and stack traces
Installation identifiers
Technical and performance information
Firebase explains that Crashlytics uses crash information and installation identifiers to associate crashes with an application installation.
Advertising information
Work Tracker displays advertisements using Google AdMob.
AdMob and its advertising partners may collect or process information such as:
Advertising identifiers
Device or other identifiers
IP address
Approximate location derived from the IP address
Ad interaction information
Diagnostic and performance information
This information may be used to display ads, limit repeated advertisements, prevent fraud, measure advertising performance, and, where permitted, personalize advertisements.
Google provides privacy and consent tools for AdMob publishers, including tools for obtaining consent from users in relevant regions.
2. How We Use Information
Information may be used to:
Create and manage user accounts
Save and synchronize work-tracking information
Record shifts, working hours, and attendance
Detect arrival at a configured workplace
Send reminders and notifications
Restore user information across supported devices
Diagnose crashes and technical problems
Improve the app’s reliability and functionality
Display and measure advertisements
Prevent fraud, misuse, and security incidents
Respond to support and privacy requests
3. Third-Party Services
Work Tracker uses third-party services provided by Google, including:
Firebase Authentication
Firebase database and storage services
Firebase Crashlytics
Google Sign-In
Google AdMob
These providers may process information according to their own privacy policies and service terms.
Google Play requires developers to account for data collected by both their own app code and included third-party SDKs when completing the Data safety form.
Google’s Privacy Policy explains how Google manages information processed through its products and services.
4. Data Sharing
Work Tracker does not sell users’ personal information.
Information may be shared with or processed by third-party service providers only when necessary to operate the app, including Google Firebase and Google AdMob.
Information may also be disclosed when reasonably necessary to:
Comply with applicable laws or legal obligations
Respond to lawful requests from authorities
Protect users, the developer, or the public
Investigate fraud, abuse, or security incidents
Enforce applicable terms and policies
Advertising providers may process device and advertising information for advertising, measurement, fraud prevention, and related purposes.
5. Data Storage and Security
User information may be stored:
Locally on the user’s device
On Google Firebase infrastructure
Reasonable technical and organizational measures are used to protect user information. However, no electronic-storage or internet-transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Information transmitted between the app and supported online services is protected using the security mechanisms provided by those services.
6. Data Retention
Account and work-tracking information may be retained while the user maintains a Work Tracker account or while it is reasonably necessary to provide the app’s services.
Information may also be retained when required for:
Security
Fraud prevention
Legal compliance
Resolving disputes
Enforcing agreements
Crash and advertising information may be retained by Google according to Google’s applicable retention policies.
When an account-deletion request is completed, associated account and application data will be deleted unless retention is legally required or technically necessary for security and fraud-prevention purposes.
7. Account and Data Deletion
Users may request deletion of their Work Tracker account and associated information.
Account deletion should be available from within the app under:
Settings → Account → Delete Account
Users may also request account and data deletion by emailing:
vitogs2024@gmail.com
Please send the request from the email address connected to the Work Tracker account and use the subject:
Work Tracker Account Deletion Request
We may request reasonable verification before deleting an account to prevent unauthorized deletion.
After verification, the user’s account and associated Work Tracker information will be deleted, except for information that must be retained for legal, security, fraud-prevention, or technical reasons.
Google Play requires apps supporting account creation to provide both an in-app deletion path and an external web resource for deletion requests.
8. Permissions
Depending on the enabled features, Work Tracker may request permissions including:
Precise or approximate location
Background location
Notifications
Internet access
Permissions are used only for the app features described in this Privacy Policy.
Users may revoke permissions through their Android device settings. Some app features may stop functioning when required permissions are revoked.
9. Advertising Choices and Consent
Depending on the user’s location, Work Tracker may request consent before displaying personalized advertising.
Users may be able to manage advertising preferences through:
The consent options presented inside the app
Android privacy settings
Google advertising settings
Where consent is not granted, the app may display non-personalized or limited advertisements when supported.
10. Children’s Privacy
Work Tracker is not designed specifically for children under the age of 13, or the applicable minimum age required in the user’s country.
The developer does not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate authorization.
Anyone who believes that a child has provided personal information may contact:
vitogs2024@gmail.com
11. International Data Processing
Firebase, AdMob, and other Google services may process information on servers located outside the user’s country.
Applicable safeguards and service-provider terms may govern international processing and transfers.
12. Changes to This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated when the app’s features, data practices, third-party services, or legal requirements change.
The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
Continued use of Work Tracker after an update means the user acknowledges the updated Privacy Policy.
