Who has access to data?
Ok Alone customers also have a great deal of control over which people internally see personal data. There are three levels of user access rights for the Monitors, each of which grants different access to personal data. Workers do not have access to personal data. All interaction between Workers and the system occurs through an encrypted connection with the app. Combined, this ensures people’s data stays private.
What data do we hold?
Whilst it is best practice to use the worker’s name, it is not a requirement. Anonymised data like ID numbers, building names or team names can be used. Monitors need an email to login. That email does not need to be a work email or an email containing their name, although again, this is normal practice. For those who want alerts, an email and/or phone/cell number are necessary.
If scheduling is required, shift information is needed too. All other data is generated from within the Ok Alone system. In short, little if any client data is required to set-up Ok Alone, but most clients provide a name, email and phone number(s).

How long do we hold the data?
There are 4 key aspects to data storage. First, the data relating to the workers and monitors. This is held whilst the account is open, but the addition and deletion of this data is controlled by you (the Company). Second, the location data of the workers is held for 30 days in the live database. Third, the transactional data about workers activity (i.e. start/end shifts, check-ins, help alerts, messages sent). This data is held for 1 year in the live database. Fourth, back-ups are taken regularly and held in storage outside of the main system. This data is held for extended periods of time due to legal requirements (i.e. The Occupational Health and Safety Regulation or the OHS provisions of the Workers Compensation Act.)

Engagement
Ok Alone encourages people to use the solution by using an element of competition. Staff usage of the system’s features is ranked against others within their own company and other companies also using Ok Alone. People can earn badges and titles which offer a positive reinforcement of using the system.
Regular check in, less intervention from management
This reminds workers to tap on ‘Check In’ to let their Monitor know they are fine. This drastically reduces the amount of time and intervention required by management as the dashboard is constantly updated with their lone worker’s status throughout their shift.
