GDPR isn't just about marketing emails — it applies to everything your business stores about its employees, including time tracking data.
What Data Does Time Tracking Collect?
A time tracking system typically stores names, IP addresses, location data, working patterns, and biometric data if fingerprint clocking is used. All of this is personal data under GDPR.
Your Obligations as an Employer
- Only collect data that is necessary (data minimisation)
- Store data securely with access controls
- Have a lawful basis for processing (employment contract)
- Provide employees access to their own data
- Delete data when it's no longer needed
How ICTORA Is Built for GDPR
ICTORA captures only what's needed — timestamps and IP addresses — and gives employees full visibility of their own records. Data retention policies are configurable, and all data is encrypted at rest and in transit.
