However, there are instances where we may use your personal information for purposes unrelated to your employer organization, such as when you use the Services or contact us independently of your employer. In these cases, we may act as a “controller” under the GDPR. This differentiation between our roles as processor and controller carries various implications under the GDPR.

For instance, your Account Owner may require verification of your location via your device for activities like clocking in or out.
If you prefer not to allow the collection of your precise location, you can typically disable this feature by adjusting the privacy settings of your mobile device or adjusting permissions for the App. However, please note that disabling geo-location tracking may affect the functionality of certain features in the App. It’s important to understand that iQcheckpoint does not utilize geo-location data for its own purposes; the use of such data and the legal basis for its collection and processing are determined by the Customer associated with your account.
The app does use third party services that may collect information used to identify you.
