This Privacy Policy applies to:

This Privacy Policy should be read alongside our Terms of Service, Data Processing Agreement and Cookie Policy, available at:

1. Our Role

Floxa provides business management software for businesses, teams, freelancers and organisations.

Depending on the circumstances, Floxa may act as either a controller or a processor of personal data.

We act as a controller when we decide why and how personal data is used. This includes personal data used for account registration, billing, customer support, security, analytics, product improvement, legal compliance and communications with our customers.

We may act as a processor when our business customers upload, enter, store or manage personal data about their own customers, staff, contractors, suppliers, contacts or other individuals within the Floxa platform. In those cases, the customer is usually the controller, and Floxa processes that data on the customer's instructions, in accordance with our Terms, Data Processing Agreement and applicable law.

If you are an individual whose personal data has been entered into Floxa by one of our customers, you should usually contact that customer first about your data protection rights. We will assist our customers where required by applicable data protection law.

2. Business Use and Account Authority

Floxa is intended for business users aged 18 or over.

You must be at least 18 years old to create a Floxa account or use the service.

If you create an account on behalf of a company, organisation or other legal entity, you confirm that you are authorised to do so and to provide personal data to Floxa on its behalf.

Customers are responsible for ensuring that they have a lawful basis for entering personal data into Floxa and for providing any required privacy information to the individuals whose data they manage through the platform.

3. Personal Data We Collect

We collect different types of personal data depending on how you use Floxa.

We may collect or process:

  • company or organisation name;

  • customer, supplier, contractor or contact records entered into the platform;
  • project, task, invoice, expense, timesheet, CRM, support, document or operational data entered into the platform.

Floxa may process staff, contractor or team member information entered by customers, including timesheets, task assignments, approvals, roles, permissions, work records and related operational data.

3.3 Customer-Controlled Data

  • task and project information;
  • timesheet and work records;

3.4 Financial, Billing and Payment Information

Customers may create, upload or manage invoices, expenses, receipts, payment records and other financial or accounting-related records in Floxa. These records may contain personal data depending on the information entered or uploaded by the customer.

Floxa uses Stripe to manage subscription billing for Floxa accounts. Floxa may also use Stripe Connect to allow customers to connect their own Stripe accounts and accept payments for invoices issued through the platform.

We may collect or receive limited payment and billing information, such as:

  • subscription plan;
  • payment status;
  • invoice records;
  • transaction references;
  • partial payment card details, such as card brand and last four digits, where provided by Stripe;
  • tax or accounting information.

We do not intentionally store full payment card numbers or full card security codes on our own systems.

Floxa subscriptions are managed through Stripe. Floxa does not use Apple or Google in-app purchases for subscriptions at launch.

3.5 Uploaded Files, Receipts, Images and Documents

Users may optionally upload receipts, photos, documents and other files of their choice into Floxa.

These uploads may contain personal data depending on what the user chooses to upload. Floxa processes uploaded files to provide relevant platform features, such as receipts, expenses, invoices, records, attachments and document management.

Customers may upload, store and manage signed contracts or other documents in Floxa. Floxa does not provide electronic signing functionality at launch.

Authorised Floxa personnel may access uploaded documents only where necessary to provide support, troubleshoot issues, maintain security, investigate misuse, comply with legal obligations, or operate the service.

Floxa does not manually review user-uploaded images, receipts or documents for analytics purposes.

The Floxa mobile app may request camera and photo/file access where needed to allow users to upload receipts, photos, documents, attachments or other files into the platform.

These uploads are optional. Floxa does not access the camera, photos or files unless the user grants permission and uses a feature that requires access.

Floxa does not request location, contacts, calendar, microphone or push notification permissions at launch.

The Android app is login-only at launch. Account creation is handled through the Floxa website. Signup may be added to the mobile app later, and this Privacy Policy and relevant app disclosures will be updated if that changes.

Google Analytics is not used inside the logged-in Floxa web app/platform or mobile app at launch.
