Privacy Policy
1. Overview and scope
This policy covers the ShiftWorth app for Android, published by JTR Labs LLC ("we", "us"). ShiftWorth is built so that we never receive your information: it has no account or sign-in, no ads, no analytics and no servers of ours, and the app never sends the information you enter off your phone. Its only network use is Google Play's billing system for the Pro purchase (see section 4).
2. Information stored by the app
Everything you enter stays in a database on your phone. That includes:
- Jobs, pay rates, pay rules, premiums and tax settings (such as W-4 choices, filing status and state rate)
- Shifts, hours, tips, mileage, costs and pay stubs you enter
- Goals, what-if plans, reminders and app preferences
We do not collect, receive, sell or share any of this information.
3. Notifications and device features
Reminders
Reminders are off until you turn them on. If you do, ShiftWorth asks for Android's notification permission and schedules reminders on your phone. Nothing about them leaves the device.
Files
When you restore a backup, Android's file picker lets you choose the file. ShiftWorth reads only the file you pick.
4. ShiftWorth Pro purchases
ShiftWorth Pro is a one-time in-app purchase handled by Google Play. Google processes the payment under its own privacy policy. The app asks Google Play whether your Google account owns Pro so it can turn Pro on, and it acknowledges new purchases as Google requires. The Google Play Billing library that ShiftWorth uses for this connects to Google and may send Google technical diagnostics about purchase requests. It does not receive the pay, schedule or tax information you enter in the app, and we do not receive your payment details.
5. Backups and exported files
ShiftWorth's database is excluded from Android cloud backups. It can be copied when you move to a new phone with Android's device-to-device transfer. CSV exports, PDF reports and backup files are created only when you ask, and go only where you share them through Android's share sheet. Once shared, they are handled by the app or service you chose.
6. Retention, deletion, and reset
Your data stays on your phone until you delete it. You can erase everything from the More tab, or uninstall the app, which removes its data from the device. Backup files you saved elsewhere are yours to delete.
7. Security
Your data is protected by Android's app sandbox, which keeps other apps from reading ShiftWorth's storage, and by your phone's lock screen and encryption. Treat exported files like any other document with pay information.
8. Children's privacy
ShiftWorth is meant for working adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children.
9. Your choices and privacy rights
Because we don't hold your information, there is nothing for us to access, correct or delete on your behalf; you control it in the app. Depending on where you live, you may have rights under laws such as the CCPA or GDPR. Contact us with any request and we'll help.
10. Policy changes
If this policy changes, we'll update it here and change the effective date. If a change would let the app share information it doesn't share today, we'll say so in the app before it takes effect.
