Privacy Policy for DoorCheckr.com
Last Updated: August 30, 2025
1. Introduction
At DoorCheckr, we are committed to protecting the privacy and security of our users, including K-12 school administrators, safety officers, and staff who use our NFC-based door monitoring software to enhance school safety. This Privacy Policy outlines how DoorCheckr (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information through our website (DoorCheckr.com), Android app, and desktop platform. We adhere to applicable data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), to ensure transparency and trust. By using our services, you consent to the practices described in this policy. For questions, contact us at support@doorcheckr.com or (888) 555-1234.
2. Information We Collect
We collect limited personal information to provide and improve our services. When you sign up for a DoorCheckr account (Free, Regional, or District Upgrade tiers), we may collect your name, email address, job title, school or district name, and billing details (for paid tiers). Our Android app collects data related to door scans, such as user ID, scan timestamps, door locations, and NFC tag identifiers, to generate permanent records and reports. We also collect usage data (e.g., app interactions, browser type, IP address) via cookies and analytics tools on our website to optimize user experience. We do not collect sensitive student data or information beyond what is necessary for school safety operations.
3. How We Use Your Information
DoorCheckr uses your information to deliver, maintain, and enhance our school safety solution. Personal data is used to create and manage user accounts, process payments (for paid tiers), and provide technical support. Scan-related data is used to generate dashboards and reports, ensuring compliance with safety protocols and grant requirements, such as those from the Missouri Department of Education. We may use anonymized usage data to improve our software and website functionality. We do not sell or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes, but we may share data with trusted service providers (e.g., payment processors, cloud hosting) to operate our services, always under strict confidentiality agreements.
4. Data Security and Retention
We prioritize the security of your data, employing industry-standard measures like encryption, secure cloud storage, and access controls to protect personal and scan-related information. Our Android app and desktop platform use SSL/TLS for data transmission, and NFC tags are pre-configured to ensure secure scanning. We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill our services or comply with legal obligations (e.g., audit records for safety grants). Upon account termination, we securely delete or anonymize data within 30 days, unless required for legal compliance. In the event of a data breach, we will notify affected users promptly, in accordance with applicable laws.
5. Your Rights and Contact Information
As a DoorCheckr user, you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information, as well as restrict or object to its processing, subject to applicable laws like GDPR and CCPA. To exercise these rights or inquire about our practices, contact us at support@doorcheckr.com or (888) 555-1234. You may also opt out of non-essential cookies via our website’s cookie settings. For California residents, we provide disclosures and rights under the CCPA, including the right to know what data we collect and opt out of data sharing. We may update this Privacy Policy periodically, with changes posted on DoorCheckr.com and effective upon posting. Your continued use of our services constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
