Privacy Policy
This policy explains what personal data LogBooks Hub collects, why we collect it, and the rights you have over it — across our mobile apps (iOS and Android) and our website.
Last updated: 8 October 2026
1. Introduction
LogBooks Hub ("LogBooks Hub", "we", "us" or "our") provides audit-grade digital logbooks that help businesses replace paper and spreadsheets with a compliant, easy-to-use digital record keeping system. We offer our service through mobile apps available on the Apple App Store and Google Play, and through our web application and website.
This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose and safeguard your information when you use our apps and website (together, the "Service"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data in an open and transparent way, in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018, and the privacy requirements of Apple and Google.
By using the Service you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use the Service.
2. Who we are
LogBooks Hub is operated by ReflowAI Limited (Company No. 16586802), Tunbridge Wells, United Kingdom, registered with the Information Commissioner's Office under registration number ZC176661. For the purposes of UK data protection law, we are the "data controller" responsible for your personal data when you use our Service to manage your own account.
Where your employer or organisation provides you with access to LogBooks Hub, that organisation may be the controller of the records you create, and we act as a "data processor" on their behalf. In that case, please also refer to your organisation's own privacy notice.
If you have any questions about this policy or how we handle your data, you can reach us at service@logbookshub.com.
3. Information we collect
We collect the following categories of information:
Information you provide to us
- Account information — your name, email address, phone number, business or organisation name, and password when you register.
- Profile and role information — your job role, site/location assignment, and the permission level set by your organisation's administrator.
- Content you create — logbook entries, checklists, temperature and safety readings, notes, electronic sign-offs/signatures, and photo evidence you attach to checks.
- Support communications — information you provide when you contact us for support, request a demo, or send us feedback.
- Payment information — billing details for paid plans. Card payments are processed by our payment provider; we do not store full card numbers on our servers.
Information we collect automatically
- Device information — device model, operating system and version, unique device identifiers, app version, and language settings.
- Usage and diagnostics — how you interact with the app, features used, timestamps, crash reports, and performance data, which help us keep the app stable and improve it.
- Approximate location — we may derive a coarse, city-level location from your IP address for security and fraud prevention. We do not collect precise GPS location.
- Log data — IP address, access times, and pages or screens viewed.
We do not knowingly collect special category data (such as health, biometric or racial/ethnic data) and ask that you do not enter such data into free-text fields.
4. App permissions (iOS & Android)
Our mobile apps request the following device permissions. Each is optional in the sense that it is requested only when you use the related feature, and you can manage or revoke permissions at any time in your device settings. Some features will not work without the relevant permission.
- Camera — to capture photo evidence directly when completing a compliance check.
- Photos / Storage — to let you attach an existing photo from your device to a logbook entry.
- Notifications — to send reminders for scheduled checks and important account alerts. You can opt out at any time.
- Network access — to sync your records securely with our servers.
We only request the permissions needed to provide the features you use, consistent with Apple's App Store and Google Play permission policies.
5. How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, operate and maintain the Service;
- Create and manage your account and authenticate you;
- Store, sync and display the logbook records and evidence you create;
- Send service-related communications, reminders and security alerts;
- Provide customer support and respond to your requests;
- Monitor and improve performance, stability and usability, and develop new features;
- Detect, prevent and address fraud, abuse, security incidents and technical issues;
- Process payments and manage subscriptions; and
- Comply with our legal obligations.
We do not sell your personal data, and we do not use your data or device identifiers to track you across other companies' apps and websites for advertising purposes.
6. Legal bases for processing
Under UK GDPR, we rely on the following legal bases to process your personal data:
- Performance of a contract — to provide the Service you have signed up for.
- Legitimate interests — to secure, maintain and improve the Service, and to prevent fraud and abuse, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights.
- Consent — for optional features such as non-essential analytics or marketing communications, where required. You may withdraw consent at any time.
- Legal obligation — where we are required to process data to comply with the law.
7. App Store & Play Store data disclosures
To help you understand our practices at a glance, the table below summarises the data types we may collect, why, and whether they are linked to your identity. This aligns with Apple's App Privacy ("nutrition label") and Google Play's Data Safety disclosures.
| Data type | Examples | Purpose | Linked to you |
|---|---|---|---|
| Contact info | Name, email address, phone number, business name | Account creation, app functionality, customer support | Yes |
| Account & credentials | Login email, password (hashed), role/permissions | Authentication, access control | Yes |
| User content | Logbook entries, checklists, temperature readings, notes, signatures | App functionality (the core service) | Yes |

| Identifiers | User ID, device ID, organisation ID | App functionality, security, fraud prevention | Yes |
| Usage & diagnostics | App interactions, feature usage, crash logs, performance data | Analytics, app stability and improvement | Yes |
| Approximate location | Coarse location derived from IP address | Security, fraud prevention, regional settings | Yes |
We do not use any data to track you across apps and websites owned by other companies. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and you can request deletion of your data at any time (see section 14).
9. Third-party services
We use a small number of reputable third-party providers to operate the Service, which may include:
- Cloud hosting and storage — to store your data securely.
- Payment processing — to handle subscriptions and billing.
- Analytics and crash reporting — to understand usage and fix problems.
- Email and communications — to send service and support messages.
Each provider has its own privacy policy governing how it handles data. We only engage providers that offer appropriate safeguards.
10. Data retention
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to provide the Service and for legitimate and essential business purposes, such as maintaining the integrity of compliance records, resolving disputes, and complying with legal obligations.
Compliance records may be retained for the period required by your organisation or by applicable regulations. When you delete your account, we will delete or anonymise your personal data within a reasonable period, except where we are required to retain it by law.
11. How we protect your data
We use enterprise-grade safeguards to protect your information, including:
- Encryption in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256);
- Role-based access controls and least-privilege access;
- Automated daily backups and point-in-time recovery;
- An immutable audit trail for signed-off records; and
- Ongoing monitoring and security best practices.
No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work hard to protect your data and to notify you and the relevant authorities of any breach where required by law.
12. International data transfers
Apart from live chat (see section 16), your data is processed and stored in Europe. Where data is transferred outside the UK or Europe, for example to a service provider, we ensure an appropriate level of protection through legally recognised safeguards, such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or adequacy decisions.
13. Your privacy rights
Subject to applicable law, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you;
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data;
- Request erasure of your data ("right to be forgotten");
- Restrict or object to certain processing;
- Request portability of your data to another provider;
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and
- Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at service@logbookshub.com. If you are in the UK and are unhappy with how we handle your data, you may complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
14. Deleting your account & data
You can request deletion of your account and associated personal data at any time. There are two ways to do this:
- In the app — go to Settings → Account → Delete account and follow the prompts.
- By email — send a deletion request to service@logbookshub.com from the email address associated with your account.
When you delete your account, we delete or anonymise your personal data within a reasonable period. Note that where your account is managed by your employer or organisation, deletion may be subject to their record-keeping obligations, and some compliance records may be retained by them or as required by law.
15. Children's privacy
The Service is intended for use by businesses and their staff and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 16. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
17. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or the requirements of the Apple App Store and Google Play. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, notify you in the app or by email. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
