INFORMATION SHARING
Information about our customers is crucial to our business. We do not sell this information to others. We share customer information only as described below and with subsidiaries of HRBluSky.com, Inc. These subsidiaries either follow this Privacy Policy or adhere to equally protective practices.
Affiliated Businesses We Do Not Control:
We work closely with affiliated businesses, including HR Service Providers. In some cases, these businesses sell offerings to you at HRBluSky.com. In other cases, we provide services or sell products jointly. You will know when a third party is involved in your transactions, and we share relevant customer information with them.
Third-Party Service Providers:
We hire other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. This includes fulfilling service requests, delivering packages, sending mail and email, removing repetitive information, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, and offering customer service. These providers have access to personal information necessary for their tasks but cannot use it for other purposes.
At times, we send offers to select groups of HRBluSky customers on behalf of other businesses.

We may release account and personal information when necessary to comply with the law, enforce our Terms of Use & Service, or protect the rights and safety of HRBluSky, our users, or others.

INFORMATION SECURITY
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
We reveal only the last four digits of your credit card numbers when you confirm an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
RETENTION OF INFORMATION
We retain your personal information for as long as it is required for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy. Sometimes, we may retain your information for longer periods as permitted or required by law, such as to maintain suppression lists, prevent abuse, if required in connection with a legal claim or proceeding, to enforce our agreements, for tax, accounting, or to comply with other legal obligations.
When we no longer have a legitimate need to process your information, we will delete or anonymize your information from our active databases. We will also securely store the information and isolate it from further processing on backup discs until deletion is possible.
Accessing & Updating your Information - Rights Available to you
We hold personal data about you, including the purposes for processing it and how long we intend to store it. We also disclose the recipients of your personal data.

What is HRBluSky’s policy for the collection, use, and storage of Face Attendance Data?
Use of Face Attendance Software
We offer certain clients the ability to use Face Attendance software through HRBluSky’s Time and Attendance applications. In doing so, we rely on our contract with clients to lawfully process Face Attendance data, which not only helps us authenticate individuals but also works to prevent fraud in employment or contractor relationships. Furthermore, HRBluSky uses Face Attendance data strictly for the purposes requested by our clients, ensuring that it is solely applied to perform the specific HRBluSky services they require.
Data Security and Retention
HRBluSky securely transmits Face Attendance data using encryption. Additionally, we take all reasonable steps to safeguard this data from any unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. Furthermore, we retain this information only until we terminate our service agreement with clients. Typically, we routinely delete the information within 30 days following termination, or even sooner if directed by the client. However, we may also retain it if required under our agreement or if we have a legal obligation to do so.
Employee Notification and Consent
Clients must:
- Inform employees or contractors in writing that Face Attendances are collected, stored, and used.
- Specify the purpose(s) for collecting Face Attendances and the duration for which it is stored and used.
- Obtain written consent from the employee or contractor (or their legally authorized representative) to authorize the collection, storage, and use of Face Attendances.
Facial Recognition Technology
HRBluSky uses facial recognition technology as an optional feature for both mobile and time clock solutions. Specifically, through a photograph (“Photo”) submitted to our sites, algorithms then create a Face Attendance identification index. This index serves as a numeric interpretation of a person’s facial features, including key details such as the distance between the eyes, nose, and ears. Consequently, this process enables accurate identification, further supporting reliable attendance tracking.
Compliance and Further Information
Additional requirements or restrictions may, therefore, apply to Face Attendance data based on applicable laws in your jurisdiction. For instance, if you are an employee or contractor accessing HRBluSky services in connection with your employment or contractor status, please be sure to contact your employer or client for further information regarding your data. This way, you can fully understand any specific requirements or policies related to the use of Face Attendance in your region.
