Turnimo privacy policy
The short version: your roster lives on your phone. Turnimo has no account, no sign-in, no analytics, no ads, no crash reporting and no tracking, and we, the makers, receive nothing that you enter.
Who is responsible
Turnimo is published by EFIRITY PTE. LTD., registered address 68 Circular Road #02-01, Singapore 049422, company registration number UEN 202402844G. Questions about this policy: hi@busy.dev.
What Turnimo keeps, and where
Everything you put into Turnimo is stored on your phone only: your shift types (names, labels, colours, times, breaks and hourly rates), your rotations and the dates they start, changes to single days, overtime, worked hours and notes, the schedules partners have sent you, and your settings (currency, overtime multiplier, reminders, week start, theme and language).
- iPhone: the data sits in the app's App Group container on the device, so that the Next shifts widget and the Next shift action for Siri and Shortcuts can read it. Both run on the phone and answer from the same local data.
- Android: the data sits in the app's private storage and its preferences on the device.
Backups
- iPhone: Turnimo's data is part of your iCloud or computer backup of the device, under your Apple Account.
- Android: Turnimo takes part in Android's backup to your own Google account only when that backup is end-to-end encrypted, which needs a screen lock on the phone.
- Backup files: "Save a backup file" writes one file to a place you choose, and "Restore from a backup file" reads one back. The file goes only where you put it.
These backups are run by Apple or Google under your own account. We cannot see them.
Partner codes
"Send my schedule to my partner" builds a code on your phone. It contains your shift pattern and its dates (from one month back to twelve months ahead), the names, labels, colours and times of the shift types it uses, the shifts you changed on single days, the name you typed for yourself (if any), and a random identifier that lets the receiving app replace an older code from you. Your notes are included only when you turn on "Include notes"; overtime and worked hours are never included. You send the code with an app of your choice, and the other person pastes it into their Turnimo. It never passes through us. Removing a partner in the app deletes their schedule from your phone.
Exports and reminders
A picture of a month, a calendar file (.ics) and a CSV of hours and pay are created on your phone and go only where you send or save them. Shift reminders are local notifications scheduled on the phone; Turnimo asks for notification permission only when you switch reminders on.
The update check
- iPhone: when you open the app, at most once a day, Turnimo asks Apple's public lookup service (itunes.apple.com) for the newest version of Turnimo. The request carries only Turnimo's bundle identifier and your store country, without cookies. Apple receives it like any internet request, under Apple's privacy policy. This is the only network request the iPhone app makes, and nothing about you or your schedule is in it.
- Android: Turnimo has no internet permission. To offer updates it uses Google Play's in-app updates, where the Play Store app on your phone checks with Google under Google's privacy policy.
What we collect
Nothing. Because no data reaches us, we have none to sell, share, analyse or hand over. Apple and Google handle your download of Turnimo under their own store policies.
Deleting your data
Uninstalling Turnimo deletes everything it stored on the phone (on Android, clearing the app's storage in system settings does the same). Backups you made and files you exported stay where you put them until you delete them. We hold no copy, so there is nothing to ask us to delete.
Children
Turnimo is a work tool and is not directed at children under 13.
Changes
If Turnimo starts handling data differently, this page will say so before the version that does it is released, with a new effective date.
