Privacy Policy
SiteDims is an iPhone and iPad app for recording site photos, measurements and markups, used by businesses and their teams. This policy explains what the app handles, where it is kept and how to reach us. We handle personal information in line with the Australian Privacy Principles in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
1Who we are
SiteDims is provided by the SiteDims team in New South Wales, Australia ("we", "us"). Contact us at the email at the end of this policy.
2The short version
- Your projects are kept on your device and in the cloud storage your company chooses (Dropbox, iCloud Drive, Google Drive or OneDrive), under your company's own account.
- We don't run servers that receive your projects, and we can't see them.
- No ads, no analytics or tracking tools, and we never sell or rent information.
3What the app handles
| Information | Why |
|---|---|
| Your name and email | From Sign in with Apple or Google, to identify you in the app, show who created each project, and give you a seat on your company's plan. |
| Company name and logo | Entered by your company, shown in the app on every team member's device. |
| Project details | Client names and site addresses you enter, to file each job. |
| Photos, videos, PDFs | What you capture or import, with your marks and measurements. |
| Measurements | Lengths you type in or receive from a Bluetooth laser measurer. |
| Subscription status | Which plan your company has and who is on it. Payment is handled entirely by Apple; we never receive card or bank details. |
4Device permissions
The app asks for each permission only when you use the feature that needs it. You can change any of them in Settings › SiteDims.
- Camera to take site photos and videos.
- Microphone to record sound with site videos.
- Photos to import existing photos into a project.
- Location, only while the app is open, to fill in a project's site address.
- Calendar, read only and only if you turn it on, to suggest a site address from a nearby appointment. Calendar entries are never uploaded or stored.
- Bluetooth to receive readings from a laser measurer.
5Where it is stored
- On your device, in the app's own storage. Sign-in keys are kept in the device's secure Keychain.
- Your company's cloud storage: projects, the company name and logo, the plan and the team list sync to the folder your company chose, so the whole team sees the same projects. Who can open that folder is controlled by your company in that service.
- Google Drive backup, if you turn it on: a copy of each project in your own Google Drive.
Dropbox, Apple, Google and Microsoft may store data on servers outside Australia, including in the United States, under their own privacy policies. The app connects to them directly from your device.
Google user data
If your company keeps its projects in Google Drive, or you turn on the Google Drive backup, SiteDims asks Google for access to your Drive. It uses that access only to list, open, create and update the project folders and files (project details, photos, PDFs and videos) in the folder your company chose, or in the "SiteDims Backup" folder. Sign in with Google gives the app your name and email address, used as described above.
- Google Drive data is read and written directly between your device and Google. It is not sent to us or to any other server.
- It is not sold, not used for advertising, and not used to train AI or machine-learning models.
- No person at SiteDims reads it.
- You can remove the app's access at any time in the app's Settings or at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
SiteDims' use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
6Your company controls its projects
The projects belong to the company whose storage they are kept in. The person who manages your company's plan can see the names and emails of the people on it, invite people and remove them. Questions about a company's project records are best directed to that company.
7How long it is kept
Projects stay in your company's storage until your company deletes them. Projects deleted in the app move to a Recently Deleted folder in that storage and are removed after the period set in the app's Settings. Uninstalling the app or using Settings › Delete Account & Data removes everything the app keeps on the device.
8Your choices
- Sign out at any time in the app's Settings.
- Delete all data on the device with Settings › Delete Account & Data.
- Stop using Sign in with Apple for this app in your iPhone's Settings › Apple Account › Sign in with Apple.
- Ask us about any personal information we hold about you.
9Children
SiteDims is a business tool and is not directed at children under 16.
