Privacy Policy

Effective date: February 15, 2026  |  Last updated: February 15, 2026

CatNet ("we," "us," or "our") operates a personnel wellness monitoring service ("Service") that enables authorized users to submit periodic check-in confirmations. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your information.

1. Information We Collect

When you use the Service, we may collect:

• Account information: Name, email address, and phone number provided during account setup by an authorized administrator.
• Check-in data: Timestamps, GPS coordinates (latitude and longitude), and IP addresses transmitted when you submit a check-in.
• Device identifiers: We do not collect device IDs, advertising identifiers, or browser fingerprints.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Verify your wellness check-in status.
• Send notification messages (SMS, voice call, or email) to designated contacts if a scheduled check-in is missed or if you request a welfare check.
• Display check-in history to authorized administrators.
• Maintain and improve the reliability of the Service.

3. SMS and Voice Messaging

By enrolling in the Service, designated contacts consent to receive automated SMS text messages and/or voice calls related to wellness check-in status updates. Message frequency depends on the check-in schedule configured by the administrator, typically fewer than 5 messages per month under normal operation.

Message and data rates may apply. To opt out of SMS messages, contact your system administrator. We do not use your phone number for marketing purposes.

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share data with:

• Service providers: We use third-party services (SendGrid for email, Twilio for SMS and voice calls) solely to deliver notifications. These providers process data only as needed to transmit messages on our behalf.
• Authorized administrators: Check-in history and status are visible to the administrators who manage your account.
• Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law or in response to valid legal process.

5. Data Storage and Security

Check-in data and account information are stored in an encrypted database on secured, access-controlled servers. Sensitive fields (such as authentication credentials) are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM. All data in transit is protected by TLS 1.2 or higher.

We retain check-in records for the duration of your active account. Upon account deactivation, data may be retained for up to 90 days before deletion.

6. Your Rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data by contacting your system administrator. If you are a designated notification contact, you may opt out of messages at any time.

7. Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed to individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
