ShiftSignal Privacy Policy

Effective October 30, 2026

ShiftSignal is provided by Crawford Group Holdings, LLC. Contact support@crawfordgroupholdings.com.

Information handled by the app

ShiftSignal 1.0.2 stores shift handoffs, names entered by users, summaries, risks, action notes, acknowledgments and user-selected attachment references locally in Android app-private storage. The app does not transmit this information to Crawford Group Holdings servers. Automatic Android cloud backup and device transfer of app records are disabled.

An attachment remains with the storage provider you select. ShiftSignal stores a reference that lets you reopen it while the provider continues to grant access. It does not upload the attachment.

Optional voice entry and sharing

Voice entry is initiated by you and handled by the speech-recognition service available on your device. ShiftSignal receives the resulting text and does not store audio. The selected speech service may process audio under its provider's privacy terms.

You may deliberately share a text recap through an app you select. The receiving app or service applies its own privacy practices. ShiftSignal does not automatically send handoffs to other team members.

Collection and permissions

This version has no Internet permission, advertising SDK, analytics SDK, remote crash-reporting service, account system or cloud synchronization. CGH does not collect handoff content through the app. The app does not request location, contacts, broad file access or direct microphone access. File selection and voice recognition use Android's external services.

Retention and deletion

Handoff data remains on your device until you clear the app's storage in Android Settings or uninstall the app. There is no in-app account to delete. User-selected attachments remain with their original provider. Copies you intentionally share remain wherever they were sent until you delete them there. Losing the device or uninstalling the app may permanently lose local handoffs.

Security

ShiftSignal relies on Android application isolation and your device's security. No additional app-level encryption is claimed. Secure your device with a screen lock and follow your workplace's information-handling rules.

Google Play and support

The first release is free and has no in-app purchases or subscriptions. Google Play independently handles installation and account information under Google's policies. If you contact CGH support, we receive the information you choose to send and use it to respond. Avoid sending sensitive handoff details unnecessarily.

Audience and changes

ShiftSignal is a workplace productivity tool intended for adults and is not directed to children. We may update this policy as features or data practices change; the effective date will appear above.
