Privacy Policy

Effective: 2026-05-20 · Version: 1.1

1. Who We Are

SquareKeeper is operated by SquareKeeper, LLC ("SquareKeeper", "we", "us"), a California limited-liability company. Mailing address available on request via hello@squarekeeper.com.

2. What We Collect

We collect information in three categories:

  • Account data: name, email, property name, role, and authentication credentials for users you invite.
  • Operational data: vehicle registrations, work orders, time-clock events, photos, incident reports, and similar business records you create using the Service.
  • Technical data: IP addresses, browser type, page views, and error logs for the purpose of operating the Service.

3. How We Use It

We use your data to provide the Service, communicate about your account, improve the product (in aggregate, anonymized form only), and comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your data. We do not share customer data with third parties for marketing purposes. We do not use customer data to train AI models.

4. Subprocessors

We use a small set of infrastructure providers to run the Service:

  • Google Cloud / Firebase — hosting, database, authentication
  • Stripe — payment processing (we never see full card numbers)
  • Twilio — SMS delivery for operational alerts (see §6 for full details)
  • Plausible Analytics — cookieless analytics used across squarekeeper.com (marketing), app.squarekeeper.com (customer dashboard), portal.squarekeeper.com (tenant portal), and vendor.squarekeeper.com (vendor portal) to measure feature engagement and aggregate product usage. No cookies, no personal data, no cross-site tracking, no IP addresses stored, no user profiles built. Plausible never receives phone numbers, message content, SMS recipients, or any SMS-related data — phone numbers and SMS delivery remain isolated to Twilio per §6.

Each subprocessor is contractually bound to protect your data. We do not use advertising networks, third-party analytics that build user profiles, or session-recording tools that capture keystrokes or form inputs.

5. Portal Users (Tenants & Vendors)

If you grant a tenant or vendor access to a SquareKeeper portal, we store their name, email, and any data they submit (vehicle plates, maintenance requests, etc.) on behalf of the property operator. The property operator is the data controller for this information. Portal users may contact us directly to exercise data-subject rights.

6. SMS Alerts (Twilio-Sent Messages)

Phone numbers we collect. When a SquareKeeper customer enables operational SMS alerts (for example, restroom QR scan reports or work-order notifications), we collect and store phone numbers for the staff and recipients designated to receive these alerts. A phone number is entered by the property administrator within the SquareKeeper application only after the recipient has given prior written consent by completing and signing the SquareKeeper Operational Alerts SMS consent form. A specimen of that form, showing every program disclosure, is published at squarekeeper.com/legal/sms-consent.

How we use them. Phone numbers are used solely to deliver the operational alerts you have configured — for example, an SMS notification when a tenant scans a QR code to report a maintenance issue. We send these alerts via Twilio, our SMS infrastructure provider. We do not use phone numbers for marketing, advertising, promotional content, or any purpose other than the operational alerts you configure within SquareKeeper.

No sharing or selling for marketing. We do not sell, rent, share, or disclose phone numbers to third parties for their marketing purposes. Phone numbers are shared only with Twilio (our SMS subprocessor) for the sole purpose of message delivery. No phone-number data is shared with affiliates, advertisers, or data brokers.

Message frequency. Message frequency varies based on property events; there is no fixed cadence. See our Terms of Service §12 for full program details.

Opt-out and support. Recipients can opt out of SMS alerts at any time by replying STOP to any alert message. Reply HELP for assistance, or email hello@squarekeeper.com. Standard message and data rates may apply.

Tenant announcement SMS. Separately, tenants of a SquareKeeper customer's property may opt in to receive SMS announcements from that property (for example, building events, closures, schedule changes, maintenance notices, and reminders) under a program named “SquareKeeper Tenant.” Opt-in is explicit and self-service: a tenant signs in to the SquareKeeper Tenant Portal, opens Account › Notifications, turns on the SMS toggle (off by default), and provides a mobile number after reading the consent disclosure. The opt-in screen, showing every program disclosure, is published at squarekeeper.com/legal/sms-consent-tenant. We collect and store the tenant's mobile number solely to deliver these announcements via Twilio, our SMS subprocessor. As above, we do not sell, rent, share, or disclose these mobile numbers to any third party for marketing purposes; message frequency varies; message and data rates may apply; and a tenant may opt out anytime by turning the setting off or replying STOP (reply HELP for help). SMS consent is not a condition of tenancy.

7. Data Retention

Operational data is retained for the duration of your subscription. Upon cancellation, data remains exportable for 30 days, after which it is archived and eventually deleted per our retention schedule. Backup copies may persist for up to 90 days before final deletion.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction (California CCPA, EU/UK GDPR, etc.), you may have rights to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data. Email hello@squarekeeper.com to exercise these rights; we respond within 30 days.

9. Security

We use industry-standard encryption in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest. Access to production systems is limited to authorized SquareKeeper personnel. We follow the principle of least privilege across all internal systems.

10. Children

The Service is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

11. Changes

We will notify you of material changes to this policy via email at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance.
