Who this covers
FieldScroll is a business-to-business service. Most people using it day to day are field staff whose organization signed up for the service. That organization is the controller of the records its team collects — it decides which forms run, who has access, and what happens to the data. FieldScroll is the processor that stores and transmits those records on the organization’s behalf under the Data Processing Addendum. This policy covers three audiences:
- Website visitors — anyone browsing fieldscroll.com.
- Prospective customers — operators and businesses evaluating FieldScroll, typically through a discovery call or a pilot.
- People using FieldScroll for their organization — field crews, reviewers, and administrators of an organization that runs on FieldScroll, including white-labeled apps built on it. Their organization’s own notices also apply.
What we collect
Website
We collect standard request data — IP address, user agent, referrer, pages visited — to keep the site online and improve it. The contact form uses a bot check that sees your IP address.
We count visits to this site with PostHog, and we do it without cookies unless you accept them. Until you click Accept analytics, no analytics identifier is stored on your device. PostHog records the pages you view and what you click on them, the referrer, your browser and device type, and an approximate location based on your IP address, and tells visits apart with an identifier it calculates on its own servers from your IP address, your user agent, and a secret that changes every day. Because the secret changes, a visit today can’t be linked to a visit on another day. If you decline, your browser’s local storage keeps that choice so the banner doesn’t ask again. If you accept analytics cookies, PostHog also stores an identifier in a cookie and in local storage so we can see when you come back. Either way, the analytics do not build advertising profiles, and session recording is off.
Discovery, pilots, and Early Access
When you book a call, start a pilot, or join Early Access, we collect the information you provide: name, work email, company, and notes about your workflow. We store this in our CRM and use it to coordinate the conversation and follow up. If you accepted analytics cookies, we also link the request to your analytics identifier, with your name, work email, and company, so we can see which pages led to it. If you didn’t, the request is counted without your name or email address.
Accounts
When someone creates an account we store their email address, a hashed password, the organization they belong to, and the roles assigned to them. Our authentication provider logs sign-in events. Administrative actions — creating organizations, adding or removing members, changing roles, publishing forms — and every request made with an API key are recorded in an audit log with the requester’s IP address and user agent.
Records your team captures
Forms can capture text, numbers, dates, choices, photos, files, signatures, and — only where a form includes a location field and the person taps to capture it — GPS coordinates with accuracy, altitude, heading, and speed. The app never records location in the background. Every submission from the mobile app also carries the device model, operating system and version, and app version; that device information is part of the record and is delivered with it to any integration the organization configures. Record content belongs to the organization. We store and transmit it on the organization’s behalf and do not use it to train models or for any purpose other than running the service.
Device permissions (mobile app)
- Camera — to take photos for a record and scan barcodes and QR codes. Never used in the background.
- Photo library — to attach an existing photo to a record.
- Location — only when a form has a location field and you choose to capture it.
The app does not read your contacts, calendar, call log, SMS, or any other app’s data, and does not send push notifications. Drafts and queued records are stored on the device while offline and rely on your device’s own storage encryption and passcode.
Product analytics and diagnostics
In production, the web dashboard and mobile app send usage events — screen views, feature usage, error events — tied to a user ID, with organization, form, and record identifiers but never record contents, photos, or form values. Current versions of the mobile app do not send your email address with these events. It also keeps a short diagnostic log on the device that records which step of a save or sync failed and a classified reason. That log never holds record contents, search text, file names, or error text. It is sent to our logging provider only when logging is turned on for the app. When crash reporting is turned on for the app, an error report goes to Sentry with the error type, the stack trace, app version, device model, operating system, and your user and organization IDs. The app replaces the error message with a fixed label, so these reports do not carry the text of the error. Reports from the app's native code, such as native crashes and app freezes, are collected only for an instance whose Sentry project has been set to scrub reports on Sentry's servers and not to store IP addresses. Those native reports do not pass through the app's own filter and can incidentally include a fragment of what caused the crash. Sentry receives the device's IP address when a report arrives. Session recording is off on every surface. Errors and crashes are logged with the detail needed to reproduce the problem (route, device type, stack trace); an error message can incidentally include a fragment of the request that caused it.
AI assistant
The optional AI assistant for building forms, reports, and integrations sends what you type, the relevant form or report definition, and any image you attach to Anthropic to generate proposals. Anthropic does not train on that content and deletes it within 30 days. The assistant is off unless your organization’s agreement enables it. Do not paste record data or personal information into it.
How we use information
- To operate, secure, and improve FieldScroll.
- To respond to inquiries, schedule calls, and coordinate onboarding and pilots.
- To monitor platform health — error rates, uptime, sync behavior — so we can fix issues before they affect customers.
- To meet legal, security, and contractual obligations.
We do not sell personal information. We do not use customer data to train models or for advertising.
Who we share it with
We share information only with the vendors that help us run the platform — cloud hosting, authentication and storage, document rendering, email, error monitoring, logging, analytics, and maps — under contract, and only what each vendor needs to do its job. The current list, with what each one receives, is published at Subprocessors. We will disclose information if required by law or to protect the safety of users, narrowing the disclosure to what is necessary and notifying the affected organization where we can.
Google Drive
If your organization connects a Google Drive destination for reports, FieldScroll uses the Google Drive API to list the folders you choose and to upload the reports you configure into them. It reads folder names and ids to show you the picker and to build the folder path you set; it does not read the contents of other files in your Drive. FieldScroll's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. You can disconnect a Google Drive destination at any time from the report's page, which revokes the platform's access and deletes the stored tokens.
Where data lives
FieldScroll runs on cloud infrastructure in the United States: database, authentication, and file storage in the US East region; document rendering in Virginia; web hosting in the United States. The shared FieldScroll environment isolates each organization by database row-level security; Launch and Partner plans run on a dedicated environment. We can discuss regional residency requirements as part of a Partner conversation.
Retention
Inquiry and discovery records are retained while the relationship is active and for a reasonable period after, typically up to two years. Records, media, forms, and reports are retained for the term written into the organization’s order form and are not deleted automatically; at the end of the term the organization elects export, extension, or deletion, and deletion is carried out under the Data Processing Addendum (30 days after the export window, including our media backup copies; database backups expire on a seven-day cycle). Audit logs are retained for 365 days, upload diagnostics for 90 days, integration delivery history for 90 days after delivery or failure, and operational metrics for 30 to 90 days.
Your choices
- You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you by emailing privacy@fieldscroll.com. See Account deletion for account requests. Records that belong to your organization are handled through your organization, which is the controller of that data.
- You can unsubscribe from any non-transactional email at any time using the link in the message.
- You can change your analytics choice for this website at any time from the cookie preferences link in the footer. Declining stops analytics cookies; visits are still counted without cookies as described above.
Security
We protect FieldScroll with encryption in transit, provider-managed encryption at rest for the database, storage, and backups, role-based access, row-level isolation between organizations, and automated error and uptime monitoring with alerting. Multi-factor authentication is not currently offered. We do not claim certifications we do not hold; the full list of controls is Attachment 3 to the Data Processing Addendum.
Security incidents
If we confirm unauthorized access to customer data in our possession, we notify the affected organization without unreasonable delay — where feasible within 72 hours of confirming it — with what we know, what was affected, and what we are doing about it. The organization is responsible for notices to its own users and customers unless the law or its agreement says otherwise. Report a security concern to security@fieldscroll.com.
Children
FieldScroll is for business use and is not directed at children. An organization may not give access to a person under 18 without our written approval.
Changes
We will update this page when our practices change. The version and date at the top reflect the most recent revision, and prior versions are available on request. Material changes are sent to each customer’s designated contract contact; we do not ask every user to re-accept.
