Privacy Policy

Your data, your rules

We believe privacy is a right, not a feature. This page explains plainly what we collect, why, and exactly what you can do about it.

Last updated: April 2, 2026

Our core privacy commitments — at a glance

Encrypted at rest

All data stored with AES-256 encryption on MongoDB Atlas.

Never sold

We never sell, rent, or share your data with advertisers.

You stay in control

Export or delete your account and all data at any time.

No tracking cookies

We use only essential session cookies — no ads, no tracking.

TLS 1.3 in transit

All connections between you and our servers are TLS-encrypted.

30-day deletion

Account deletion permanently purges all your data within 30 days.

1.Information We Collect

We collect only what is necessary to run WorkLog Pro. Here is exactly what we hold about you:

DataWhy we collect itHow long
Name & emailAccount creation and loginUntil account deleted
Password hash (bcrypt)AuthenticationUntil account deleted
Work log entriesCore product functionality & AI insightsUntil account deleted
Profile bio & avatarPersonalisationUntil account deleted
Usage eventsBug detection and product improvement90 days rolling
IP address (geo only)Local currency detection at billingNot stored

2.How We Use Your Information

We use your data solely to deliver and improve WorkLog Pro — never for advertising.

  • Provide core functionality — logging, analytics, streaks, and reports
  • Generate AI-powered insights from your work log text (via OpenAI)
  • Send transactional emails — account events, password resets
  • Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or security incidents
  • Improve the product based on aggregated, anonymised usage patterns
  • Comply with applicable legal obligations

3.Storage & Security

All data is stored on MongoDB Atlas (AWS-backed) with encryption at rest enabled at the cluster level.

Encryption at rest

AES-256 (MongoDB Atlas)

Encryption in transit

TLS 1.3

Password storage

bcrypt (cost factor 12)

Auth tokens

Signed JWTs, 15-min expiry

Refresh tokens

HttpOnly cookie, 30-day TTL

Backups

Daily, retained 7 days

We never store raw passwords. If you sign in with Google, we receive only your name, email, and profile picture — we never see your Google password.

4.Third-Party Services

We use a minimal set of trusted third-party services. Each is bound by its own privacy policy and, where applicable, a data processing agreement with us.

ServicePurposeData shared
Google OAuthSign-in authenticationName, email, profile picture — read-only
OpenAIAI-powered log parsing & summariesWork log text — not used for model training

VercelPlatform hosting & CDNRequest logs for 24 h, then deleted
PaystackPayment processingEmail + plan type — no card details stored by us
ipapi.coCurrency geo-detectionYour IP — not stored after the API call

5.Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal data to any third party — ever.

The only circumstances under which we may disclose your information:

  • With your explicit written consent
  • To comply with a valid legal obligation or court order
  • To protect the rights, property, or safety of WorkLog Pro, our users, or the public
  • In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets — you will be notified in advance

6.Your Rights

Under GDPR, CCPA, and similar frameworks, you have the following rights. Most can be exercised directly in the app — no need to contact us.

Access & Export

Download a full copy of your logs, profile, and settings as CSV or JSON at any time from Settings → Data.

Correction

Edit any inaccurate data directly in the app, or contact us and we'll update it within 7 days.

Deletion

Delete your account from Settings → Account. All data is permanently purged within 30 days.

Restriction

Request that we stop processing your data for analytics or AI while keeping your account active.

Portability

Receive your data in a machine-readable format (CSV / JSON) to move to another service.

Withdraw Consent

Opt out of AI processing or non-essential communications at any time from your account settings.

We respond to all rights requests within 30 days. Contact us at privacy@worklogpro.com if you cannot action a right from within the app.

7.Data Retention

We keep your data for as long as your account is active, or as required to provide the service. Specific retention periods are listed in the data table in Section 1.

When you delete your account, all associated data — work logs, profile, settings, and analytics — is permanently and irreversibly purged within 30 days. Encrypted backup snapshots may persist for up to 90 days before being overwritten.

Anonymised, aggregated usage statistics (e.g. “feature X was used 5,000 times this month”) are not linked to your identity and may be retained indefinitely.

8.Cookies

We use the minimum number of cookies required to operate the service. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.

refreshTokenKeeps you logged in between sessions (HttpOnly, Secure)30 days

__sessionServer-side session identifier for OAuth flowsSession

9.Policy Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do:

  • The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will change
  • For material changes, we will notify you by email at least 14 days before they take effect
  • Continued use of WorkLog Pro after the effective date constitutes acceptance
  • You can always delete your account before a policy change takes effect
