INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Information You Give Us. Any information you provide directly is only shared with your Employer.
Information Automatically Collected. When you access or use our Services, we automatically collect certain information, including:
*Device and Usage Information. We collect information about how you access our Services.
- If you use our DistractFree Apps, the information we collect includes but is not limited to data about the device you use, such as your hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and app version. We also collect information about your use of the DistractFree Apps.
- If you use our DistractFree Portals, the information we collect includes but is not limited to your email address and phone number.
*Location Information Collected by the DistractFree Apps. The DistractFree Apps function by determining when you are driving to restrict access to use of your mobile device beyond the usage policy set by your Company. Therefore, in order to determine when you are driving and for the DistractFree Apps to function properly, we may use geolocation technology such as GPS or mobile Bluetooth beacon technology to collect information about the location of your mobile device only relative to the Company vehicle. Location information may be collected both while you are using one of our mobile applications and continuously over time while our apps are not in use but are running in the background of your device, but only during your work period as determined by the Employer. If you change the permissions to restrict or prohibit access to geolocation information either at the phone level or the DistractFree App level, the DistractFree Apps will not function properly. The status will be reported to the organization.
