Privacy Policy
Effective date: September 9, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how CRC Group Ltd ("CRC Group," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information in connection with Shifti (the "Service"). It applies to the account holders who use the Service directly, and to the employee information that Company administrators enter into the Service.
1. Information We Collect
We collect the following categories of information through the Service:
- Account information: name, email address, and password (stored as a securely hashed value, never in plain text).
- Employment information entered by your employer: role, pay type, hire date, emergency contact details, and notification preferences.
- Scheduling and attendance data: shifts, time clock entries and breaks, time-off requests and balances, shift swap requests, wage history, and related attendance records.
- Security and audit logs: sign-in activity and system logs used to protect accounts and diagnose issues.
2. How We Use Information
We use this information to: operate and provide the scheduling, time clock, and time-off features of the Service; send account-related email such as sign-up verification, password reset, and activity notifications; send optional push notifications you opt into (for example, shift reminders); maintain the security and integrity of the Service, including audit logging; and communicate with you about the Service, including support requests you send to us. We do not use your information for advertising, and we do not run analytics or ad-tracking software on the Service.
3. Cookies & Sessions
The Service uses cookies that are necessary for it to function: a session cookie that keeps you signed in, and, for platform administrators, a separate signed cookie used to authenticate administrative access. We do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies.
4. Third-Party Services
We rely on a small number of service providers to operate the Service:
- An email delivery provider (via SMTP) to send verification, password reset, and notification emails.
- A push notification service (using the standard Web Push protocol) to deliver optional browser notifications you enable.
- A public holiday lookup service, which we query using only a country or region code to show relevant public holidays — no personal information is sent to this service.
These providers process information solely on our behalf and only to the extent necessary to deliver the functionality described above. If we introduce a payment processor to handle subscription billing in the future, we will update this policy to describe how payment information is handled.
5. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. Within the Service, information is visible to your own Company's administrators and managers according to the roles and permissions your Company configures. We share information outside your Company only with the service providers described above, when required by law, or with your consent.
6. Data Retention
We retain account and Company data for as long as the related account or Company subscription is active. If an account or Company is terminated, we will delete or anonymize the associated personal information within a reasonable period, except where we are required to retain it for legal, security, or accounting purposes.
7. Data Security
We use technical and organizational measures designed to protect your information, including password hashing, role-based access controls, and data isolation between Companies at the database level. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Children's Privacy
The Service is intended for use by working adults and is not directed to individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
9. Your Choices & Access Requests
If you are an employee whose information was entered by your employer, requests to access, correct, or delete that information should generally be directed to your employer's administrator, as they control that data within the Service. You may also contact us directly at [email protected] with any privacy request, and we will work with you and, where applicable, your employer to respond.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide reasonable notice, such as by posting the updated policy on this page and updating the effective date above.
