Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

MySafeOps ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of our users. This policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information in compliance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

1. Who we are

MySafeOps is a construction safety management platform operated from the United Kingdom by an individual sole trader trading as MySafeOps. For the purposes of data protection law relating to account holders and website visitors, we are the data controller.

Your organisation is usually the data controller for worker, site, and project information you enter into the product. We act as a data processor for that operational data when you use optional cloud features — see our Data processing overview.

Contact: privacy@mysafeops.com

Trading identity and business address are available on request at privacy@mysafeops.com for contracts, invoices, and regulatory correspondence. We are registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) where required by law; our registration reference is available on request.

2. What data we collect

Account data

When you register, we collect: name, email address, phone number, company name, and role (admin/supervisor/worker).

Worker data

Organisations may store worker information including: name, role, company, phone, CSCS card details, certificate numbers and expiry dates, emergency contacts, and medical information (if provided voluntarily).

Project data

Documents created in the platform including: RAMS, permits to work, site reports, incident reports, risk assessments, method statements, checklists, and inspection records.

Photos and files

Site photographs (which may include GPS location data), uploaded documents, certificate scans, site plan drawings, and company logos.

Vehicle and equipment data

Security measures include:

5. Subprocessors and international transfers

We use vetted subprocessors to deliver the service. A summary list is in our Data processing overview and on the Security & trust page. Where personal data is processed outside the UK, we rely on appropriate safeguards (for example the UK International Data Transfer Agreement / Addendum) as reflected in the DPA we agree with your organisation.

We never sell your data for third-party marketing.

6. Who has access

9. GPS and location data

When workers take photos using MySafeOps, the app may record GPS coordinates. This is used solely for documenting site conditions and is stored with the photo. Location tracking is only active during photo capture — we do not continuously track worker locations.

10. Cookies

We use essential cookies and browser storage required for sign-in, security, and preferences. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies on the product. Optional analytics or error reporting may be enabled in some deployments — see our Cookie policy.

11. Children

MySafeOps is not intended for anyone under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes via email or in-app notification.
