Last updated: April 24, 2026

Gomez Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our”) operates the Punch mobile application and the Punch web application (collectively, “the App”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the rights you have over your data.

1. Information We Collect

When you use Punch, we collect the following categories of personal information:

Account information

  • Email address (required to sign in)
  • Name (display name shown to your team)
  • Phone number (optional, used for account recovery and contact)

Location information

  • Precise location (latitude/longitude) captured at the moment you punch in or out, used to verify you are within the geofenced work area set by your organization. We do not track your location continuously or in the background.

Identifiers

  • A unique user ID that links your account to your time entries and organization.

Purchase information

  • A record of subscription purchases and renewals, provided by Apple’s StoreKit. We never see your payment card or Apple ID credentials.

Work records

  • Timestamps of each punch-in and punch-out you perform, associated with the location and organization at the time.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information solely to operate Punch, including:

  • Authenticating you and maintaining your account
  • Displaying your time entries to you, your managers, and your organization’s owner
  • Verifying punch-in/out events against your organization’s geofence
  • Processing and validating your subscription through Apple
  • Communicating with you about your account, service changes, and support requests

We do not use your data for advertising, sell it, share it with data brokers, or use it to build profiles for third-party marketing.

3. How Your Information Is Shared

We share your information only as follows:

  • Within your organization.Your name, time entries, and punch-in/out locations are visible to your organization’s owner and managers. This is the intended behavior of a workforce timekeeping app.
  • With our infrastructure providers. We use Supabase (database and authentication) and Apple (in-app purchases, push notifications) to operate the App. These providers process data on our behalf under contractual obligations.
  • When legally required. We will disclose information if compelled by law, subpoena, or a valid government request.

We do not share your information with advertisers, analytics networks, or third-party marketers.

4. Data Retention

  • Account data is retained for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we remove your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law (e.g., tax records related to purchases).
  • Time entriesare retained as long as your organization retains them. Your organization’s owner controls this.
  • Location pings associated with punch-in/out events are retained alongside the time entry they verify.

5. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you have rights that may include:

  • Access — Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correction — Ask us to correct inaccurate data.
  • Deletion — Ask us to delete your account and associated personal data.
  • Portability — Receive your data in a machine-readable format.

6. Security

We protect your information with industry-standard measures, including TLS encryption in transit, encryption at rest, and row-level access controls that prevent users from viewing data outside their own organization. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to reduce risk continuously.

7. Children’s Privacy

Punch is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
