Answers for staff and administrators about what Momentum records when staff clock from the app.
What does Momentum record when I clock from the app?
The time (Momentum's time, not your phone's), whether you clocked in or out, the site, and that the punch came from the app. At a site with a zone, it also keeps your distance from the zone center and how precise your phone's position was, in meters. If you entered a forgotten time, it keeps that time and your comment if you wrote one.
Does Momentum record where I am?
No. Your phone calculates the distance itself and sends only that distance and its accuracy. Your coordinates stay on the phone.
Does Momentum follow my movements?
No. The app reads your location only while the Time clock screen is open, and only at a site with a zone, to show how far you are. Nothing is recorded between your punches.
What if my site has no zone?
The app never asks for your location and no distance is stored.
What if I turn location off?
You can still clock. At a site with a zone, the punch is sent without location, kept and flagged, and your admin reviews it. A punch is not refused because it has no location.
Can I clock without a network connection?
No. Clocking needs a connection. Without one, the app shows Punch not confirmed and nothing is kept on your phone to send later. Try again once connected, or use Forgot to clock in? or Forgot to clock out? afterwards.
Who sees my punches?
You see your own status and assignments in the app. In Momentum, the administrators your organization gives access to the time clock pages see punches, flags and comments; they approve or reject zone flags and forgotten punches. BioSked staff access them only to run and support the service, under your organization's contract.
Who is responsible for this data, and how long is it kept?
Your organization decides how clocking data is used (data controller). BioSked processes it on its behalf (processor). Punches stay in Momentum while your organization uses the service; when the contract ends, BioSked returns or deletes the data as your organization instructs.
