Warehaus Lab staff operations platform · Last updated 27 July 2026

Warehaus Lab is a staff operations platform for hospitality businesses: attendance, rosters, tasks, training, recipes and related workplace tools. It is used by employees of organisations that run Warehaus, on the web and through the Warehaus Lab Android app. This policy explains what personal data the platform handles, why, and who processes it.

No public signup. Accounts cannot be self-created. Your employer (the organisation using Warehaus) creates your account and is the controller of your employment data; Warehaus Lab processes it to run the workplace features described below.

Device identifierFirst use on a deviceA random ID (not tied to your hardware) that lets us recognise a trusted device and show you where you are signed in.

Push notification tokenIf you enable notificationsDelivering workplace notifications (tasks, roster changes, announcements) to your device.

The public marketing site collects no personal data from visitors. The platform contains no advertising and no third-party analytics, and we do not sell personal data.

2. Location in detail

Attendance check-in reads your GPS position through the device's location service, only in the foreground and only when you initiate a check-in or check-out. The position is compared against your outlet's zone, shown to you on a map, and stored with the attendance record for payroll audit. If you decline the location permission, check-in via the app is simply unavailable; the rest of the app keeps working.

3. Who processes the data

4. Cookies and local storage

The platform stores a session token, the random trusted-device ID and your "remember me" preference on your device. There are no advertising or third-party analytics cookies.

5. Security

All traffic is encrypted in transit (HTTPS). Data access is governed by per-role, per-outlet access rules enforced at the database layer. Passwords and PINs are stored only as hashes.

6. Retention and deletion

Employment and attendance records are retained while you are employed and for the audit period your employer is required to keep. Because accounts are created and managed by your employer, requests to correct or delete your data go to your employer's HR contact, or to us at the address below, and we will action them with your employer.
