CAM FieldOps Mobile App Privacy Notice

Your account and contact information

When you sign in with your work account through Microsoft Entra ID, the app receives your name and email address from your sign-in token, along with your user ID in CAM FieldOps. We use these to identify you, to show who created or approved a record, to route work to you, and to address you in the app.

We do not receive your password. Sign-in is handled by Microsoft; the app never sees your credentials.

The work you create in the app

CAM FieldOps is a system of record for construction work, so it stores what you enter into it:

• Photos and videos you take with the app’s camera or attach from your photo library, and any markup you add to them
• Form entries and reports — daily reports, inspections, checklists, safety observations, incident reports, job safety analyses
• Text you write — issues, RFIs, submittals, correspondence, comments, notes and descriptions
• Signatures you draw to sign or approve a record
• Timecards — the hours, cost codes and equipment you record for yourself or your crew
• Files and documents you upload or mark up

This content is project work product. It is stored in CAM’s systems and is visible to other authorized users of the same project according to your organization’s permission settings.

Location

The app uses your device’s precise location in three places, and only these three:

1. Photo geotagging. When you take a photo in the app, the app reads your location at that moment and stamps it onto the photo, so progress photos plot to the right spot on the project.
2. Safety incidents. On a safety or incident report, tapping “Use my location” captures your coordinates so responders and investigators know where the event occurred.
3. Dig Board GPS capture. When you hold to collect a survey control point on the Dig Board, the app records a stream of GPS fixes and averages them into a single accurate position for that feature.

The app only reads your location while it is open and in front of you. It has no background location capability — background location is switched off in the app’s build configuration, and the app does not request the “Always” location permission. The app cannot and does not track your movements between the moments described above.

Location is optional. If you decline the location permission, or turn it off later in your device settings, the app keeps working: photos are saved without coordinates, and the location controls on safety reports and the Dig Board simply become unavailable.

Your device and push notifications

So the app can send you notifications about work assigned to you, we register your device and store its push token, platform (iOS or Android), device name, app version and OS version.

Push notifications are delivered through Expo’s push notification service, which passes them to Apple or Google for delivery to your device. Turning off notifications for CAM FieldOps in your device settings stops this.

Diagnostics — only when you report a problem

The app has no background crash reporter or telemetry. Diagnostic information is collected at exactly one moment: when you submit feedback or a bug report from inside the app. So we can reproduce what went wrong, that report carries:

• Your device model, brand, operating system and OS version, and whether it is a physical device
• The app version and the specific build of the code you were running
• Your screen dimensions, pixel density and text-size setting
• Your network state at the time (connected or not, connection type)
• How many changes were waiting to sync
• The screen you were on, and the recent screens you moved through before the problem
• Recent errors the app recorded
• A screenshot of the screen you were on, which you can remove before sending
• Your name and email, so we can reply

We use these reports to fix the app. Nothing else.

Camera, photo library and calendar permissions

• Camera — to take progress photos and attach them to issues, RFIs, safety reports and daily reports. The app uses your camera only while you are taking a photo in the app.
• Photo library — to attach existing photos to records, and to save photos you take in the app back to your library. The app reads only the photos you pick; it does not scan your library.
• Calendar — when you add an accepted meeting to your calendar, the app opens your device’s own “add event” dialog with the meeting details filled in, and you confirm it. The app writes the event through that dialog only. It does not read your calendar, and CAM receives no information about your calendar or any other events on it.
