Punchbook (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information when you use the Punchbook iOS application and related services (collectively, the “Service”).

  • Contacts — contractor and trade professional contact information you add to your projects.
  • Device information — device model, operating system version, and app version for diagnostics and compatibility.

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve the Service.

Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored using industry-standard cloud infrastructure with encryption at rest and in transit. We implement appropriate technical and organizational safeguards to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

While no system is perfectly secure, we continuously review and update our security practices to protect the integrity of your data.
