Privacy Policy

OnsiteMate.au is operated by Schmitt Studio as an Australia-focused location tool and business workspace for field workflows. This policy explains what information may be processed by the public map tool and the workspace system during the open beta.

Public map tool

The public map tool can be used without an account. You can search for Australian places, move the map, copy coordinates, create a reference, export a point, or open the location in Apple Maps or Google Maps.

  • Search text entered into the address/reference search field
  • Coordinates selected on the map
  • Generated public reference codes where you choose to save one
  • Basic technical request data needed to deliver the service

Public OnsiteMate references

When you create an OnsiteMate reference, we store the generated reference code and the rounded latitude/longitude needed to resolve that reference later. Public references are not shown in a public directory, but anyone who has the exact code can search it again.

  • Reference code, for example OM-AU-8F4K2X
  • Rounded latitude and longitude for the exact point
  • Usage metadata such as last-used time and usage count, if enabled

Business workspaces

If a company creates a workspace, OnsiteMate.au may store workspace and operational data required to provide request, scheduling, field assignment, Back Office and time-tracking features.

  • Workspace name, company settings and workspace status
  • User names, email addresses, roles and team memberships
  • Invitations, sign-in/session metadata and access permissions
  • Client requests, request links, request status and notes
  • Submitted coordinates, map links, access notes and location details
  • Assigned field staff, scheduled dates/times and job status
  • Internal workflow notes related to requests or jobs
  • Onsite start/finish timestamps and tracked time where used
  • Back Office status such as review, invoiced, closed or archived

Location permission

Browser location access is optional. OnsiteMate.au should only ask for your device location after you choose “Use my location”. You can deny permission and still search manually, move the map and create references.

Maps, search and third parties

OnsiteMate.au may use Apple Maps for map display and related map services. If Apple Maps is unavailable, the product may fall back to OpenStreetMap-based services. These services may receive search text, coordinates and technical request data needed to return map or search results.

Beta notice

This policy is provided for the open beta and should be reviewed before commercial launch. Features, storage behaviour and data handling may change as OnsiteMate.au develops.
