Privacy Policy — YouMart Admin

This policy explains how YouMart Admin, provided by CIT GROUP ("we", "us"), handles information when you use our mobile business management application. The app is for business owners and authorized staff to manage sales, stock, customers, suppliers, purchases, repairs, reports, and employee operations. Available features depend on your business subscription and account permissions.

Your business or employer determines which business and employee records are entered and who may access them. Contact your business administrator about their use of your information as well as the contact below for questions about the application.

Information We Process

• Account information: login credentials submitted to authenticate you, your user profile, business membership, roles, permissions, and assigned branches.
• Business records: product details and images, barcodes, inventory, sales, purchases, returns, payments, expenses, customer and supplier contact details, delivery information, repair records, and reports that you or your business enter or access.
• Employee information: employee records, shifts, attendance times, leave, payroll, and related HR information when those features are enabled and your role permits access.
• Attendance verification: precise latitude, longitude, and location accuracy submitted with clock-in or clock-out requests when workplace GPS rules apply. Your network IP address may also be used to check workplace network rules.
• Selected media: photos you take or choose for product images and other supported uploads.
• Connection information: network requests expose your IP address to the servers you connect to. The app also checks connectivity to support offline use and synchronization.

We use this information to authenticate users, enforce account permissions, provide the business features you request, synchronize records, verify attendance, generate documents, and respond to support requests.

Device Permissions

• Location: the app requests a current location for attendance verification when required by your workplace settings. This attendance feature does not continuously track your location in the background. Older Android versions may also require location permission for Bluetooth printer discovery; printer discovery is not used to determine your location.
• Camera: used to scan product barcodes and take photos you choose to upload.
• Photos: used to select images for supported business features.
• Bluetooth and nearby devices: used to discover and connect to receipt and label printers. Printer identifiers and preferences may be saved on your device.
• Biometrics: optional fingerprint or face authentication uses your device's authentication service. The app receives the authentication result; it does not receive or upload your fingerprint or face templates.

You can manage permissions in your device settings. Denying a permission may prevent the related feature from working, including clock-in or clock-out where your business requires GPS verification.

Local Storage and Offline Use

The app stores session tokens, profile and branch information, permissions, preferences, cached products, and queued offline transactions on your device. When you enable Remember me, your username and password are also saved locally to support subsequent login, including optional biometric login.

Queued offline transactions are sent to the YouMart server when connectivity returns and your account is permitted to synchronize. Signing out removes session and certain account details, but does not necessarily remove all cached records, saved credentials, preferences, or pending transactions. Clearing app storage or uninstalling can remove local data and may discard unsynchronized work; neither action deletes records already stored on the server.

Sharing and External Services

Information needed for business operations is transmitted to the YouMart backend. This includes identifiable business records and, where applicable, attendance coordinates; transmission is not limited to anonymous or aggregated information. Authorized users of your business can access records according to their roles and permissions.

When you print, relevant document information is sent to the selected printer or configured print agent. When you export or share a report, receipt, or other document, its contents are provided to the destination or application you select. Delivery records may include customer contact and address details entered for shipping operations.

Device services provide camera, photo selection, location, Bluetooth, and biometric functions. External apps or websites you choose to open handle information under their own policies. Information may also be disclosed when required by applicable law or to address security incidents and protect users and the service.

Retention and Deletion Requests

Business records are retained to support the business's operations and recordkeeping needs. Retention depends on the type of record, the business's instructions, and applicable obligations; this policy does not specify a fixed deletion period.

To request access, correction, or deletion of your account or personal information, contact your business administrator or email [email protected]. Identify the account, business, and records concerned without sending your password. We may need to verify your identity and coordinate with the business responsible for the records. Some records may need to be retained for accounting, legal, or dispute-resolution purposes.

Security

The application uses authenticated server requests and account permissions to restrict access to business features. The production API is configured to use HTTPS. Local records and saved login information remain on your device, so protect it with a screen lock and limit access to shared devices. No storage or transmission method can guarantee absolute security.

Children

YouMart Admin is intended for business owners and authorized staff, and is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the app, contact us so we can review and address the records involved.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy when the application's features or data practices change. The latest version will be posted on this page with an updated date.
