Garden Staff App Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 16 September 2026
Garden Staff is an internal app for Of The Garden employees to manage orders, stock, and the catalog. This policy explains what the app collects from the staff member who signs in.
1. Scope
The app is for internal use only and requires a staff account issued by Of The Garden. There is no public sign-up, and customers do not create accounts in it. Customer information shown in the app comes from our own systems and is governed by the store privacy policy.
2. Data We Collect
- Account data: the staff email address and account ID, used to sign in and apply permissions.
- Device identifier: a push notification token (Firebase Cloud Messaging) used to deliver order alerts to your device.
- Photos: images you choose from your photo library to upload to the catalog or banners.
- Support notes: notes a staff member writes on an order or a customer message.
3. How We Use It
- App functionality: sign-in, permissions, and managing orders and the catalog.
- Sending paid-order alerts to staff devices.
- Protecting the account and recording who made a change for internal audit.
4. No Tracking, No Advertising
We do not track you across other apps or websites, we show no advertising, and we do not embed third-party analytics or crash-reporting tools. Everything listed above is used to operate the app only.
5. Sharing
- We do not sell staff data and do not share it for marketing.
- Data is stored on our own servers. The push token passes through Google Firebase Cloud Messaging solely to deliver notifications.
6. Security and Retention
Data is transmitted over an encrypted connection (HTTPS). The push token is deleted when you sign out or the device is deregistered, and a staff account is disabled when the person leaves.
7. Your Rights
You may request access, correction, or deletion of your account data by contacting us at [email protected].
