Privacy Policy & Workforce Location Charter

1. Overview & Commitment

Shree Kumawat Jodpur Stone ("we", "factory", or "our") is dedicated to upholding the highest standards of data protection, personal dignity, and transparency. This Privacy Policy governs our public website, factory workforce management systems, Android mobile applications, and location services.

2. Strict Location Privacy Protocols

We strictly adhere to informed, voluntary, and transparent location tracking policies for our factory personnel:

• Explicit Informed Consent: No location tracking occurs without prior affirmative consent granted by the worker via their application or portal.
• Worker-Controlled Active Sessions: GPS coordinates are only gathered when the worker explicitly initiates an active location sharing session (e.g. during designated factory shifts or on-site temple stone installation transit).
• Visible Notification & Status: While location sharing is active, the Android app maintains a persistent, non-dismissible foreground service notification displaying "Factory location sharing is active".
• Immediate Revocation Right: Any worker may pause or permanently revoke location sharing consent at any time directly through their profile settings. Revocation immediately terminates active tracking and prevents any further data upload.
• No Off-Duty or Covert Tracking: We do not conduct covert, hidden, or off-duty location collection under any circumstances.

3. 180-Day Location Retention & Automatic Purge

All collected GPS breadcrumb coordinates (latitude, longitude, speed, accuracy, and timestamp) are retained for a maximum duration of 180 days. Automated daily cron maintenance scripts permanently purge all location breadcrumbs older than 180 days from our databases. Statutory records such as attendance summaries, consent audit records, and security audit logs are archived under separate legal retention schedules.

4. Factory Geofence Operations

Our factory maintains a virtual geofence perimeter around our Mandore yard (default radius: 100 meters). Geofence entry and exit events are generated as operational logistical estimates. Consumer mobile GPS inaccuracies are recognized; therefore, geofence logs are never treated as sole definitive attendance proof without corroborating physical check-in.

5. Security Safeguards

All communications between client devices, web browsers, and our PHP backend APIs are strictly encrypted over TLS/HTTPS. Passwords and OTP verification codes are hashed using industry-standard BCRYPT algorithms. Access to administrator dashboards requires verified Google OAuth 2.0 credentials matched against an authorized email allowlist.
