This policy applies to all Time Doctor users and to all Time Doctor platforms and services, including our apps, websites, features, and other services (collectively, the “Time Doctor Platform”). Please remember that your use of the Time Doctor Platform is also subject to our Terms of Service. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By accessing or using any part of the Time Doctor Platform, you acknowledge you have been informed of and consent to our practices with regard to your personal information and data.
When you use the Time Doctor platform, we collect the information you provide, usage information, and information about your device. We also collect information about you from other sources, like third-party services and optional programs in which you participate, which we may combine with other information we have about you. Here are the types of information we collect about you:
Account Registration. When you create an account with Time Doctor, we collect the information you provide us, such as your name, email address, photo, physical address, and payment information. You may choose to share additional info with us during account registration.
Communications. When you contact us or we contact you, we collect any information that you provide, including the contents of the messages or attachments you send us.
Website Visitor Information. Like most website operators, Time Doctor collects basic non-personally identifying information from website visitors of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available. This includes the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. We collect this information to better understand how visitors use the website, to improve our website and experience for visitors, and to monitor the security of the website.
Device Information. We collect information about the devices you use to access the Time Doctor Platform, including device model, IP address, version of operating system, identity of carrier and manufacturer, radio type (such as 4G), preferences and settings (such as preferred language), application installations, device identifiers, advertising identifiers, and push notification tokens.
Usage Information. We collect information about your use of the Time Doctor Platform, including the time you started work, the time your finished work, tasks or projects worked on, names of applications used on your computer, websites visited, and screenshots of your desktop screen. We also collect information about your interactions with the Time Doctor Platform, including the pages and content you view and the dates and times of your use.
The Time Doctor desktop app records the number of keystrokes and mouse movements you make. It does NOT record where you click on the screen, and it does NOT record what you type. It is not a keystroke-logging application.
Cookies, Analytics, and Third Party Technologies. We collect information through the use of “cookies,” tracking pixels, data analytics tools like Google Analytics, SDKs, and other third-party technologies to understand how you navigate through the Time Doctor Platform and interact with Time Doctor advertisements. We use this information to learn what content is popular, to improve your site experience, and to save your preferences.
