Forge Field is a workforce app. It is provided to the staff of Deluxe Kutz Barber Lounge for running the day. It is not a consumer app and is not offered to the general public.
Solely to keep Deluxe Kutz Barber Lounge's own records — the receipts filed, the photos taken, and the notes the office keeps.
Deluxe Kutz Barber Lounge's owner and managers can see the records their staff file. Each person sees their own. This data is not sold, not rented, and never shared with advertisers or data brokers.
It is shared with a short list of named service providers that process it under contract, only to run features this policy already describes — never for their own purposes, never for advertising, and never combined with data from another company’s users:
Beyond that, it is not shared outside Deluxe Kutz Barber Lounge except where required by law or as strictly necessary for the cloud hosting providers that operate the service.
Records are kept for as long as Deluxe Kutz Barber Lounge needs them for payroll, tax, and job-costing purposes, consistent with applicable recordkeeping requirements.
All data is sent over an encrypted HTTPS connection and stored on managed cloud infrastructure. Signing in takes your work email address and a password you choose. Passwords are never stored in readable form: each one is put through 100,000 rounds of PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 with a random per-account salt and a server-held secret, so the stored value cannot be turned back into your password. A one-time code emailed to your work address is used to set the account up the first time and to recover it if you are locked out; those codes are short-lived and single-use. Each person only sees what their role allows.
To access or correct your personal data, or to ask what is held about you, contact Deluxe Kutz Barber Lounge directly.
You can delete your own account from inside the app, by yourself. Tap your initials in the top bar — they are on every screen — and scroll to the bottom of the sheet: below the Legal section and the Sign out button, the last row is Delete my account. Confirm with your password. Nobody has to approve it and there is no request to file with Deluxe Kutz Barber Lounge: it happens the moment you confirm. Signing in stops working immediately, on that phone and every other device, and your email address, password, phone number, home address and personal settings are removed.
What stays is your name and the pay rate on your record — those are Deluxe Kutz Barber Lounge's payroll records, and an employer is required to keep payroll records that say who was paid. One thing more stays, and it is not a payroll record: a security log of account events — an access code issued or used, an emergency account recovery, this deletion — each one stamped with the network address it came from. That log holds no email address, but it does hold the account it belongs to, so the address is tied to the name that was kept. It stays because a record of who could get into a payroll system is the only thing that can ever answer whether somebody did. The full bargain, including what is kept and why, and what to do if you no longer have the app installed, is set out at /account-deletion.
Forge Field is not directed to children and is not intended for anyone under the minimum legal working age.
