Geo Time Tracker

GPS Time Tracking App for UK Teams

For UK businesses that need to verify attendance, our GPS time tracking app uses privacy-first geofencing to ensure staff are on-site for every clock-in. Get accurate mobile timesheets you can trust.

Privacy-First Time Tracking

Our system is UK GDPR-aligned. We verify on-site presence with a GPS check only at the moment of clock-in and clock-out. We never track live location or movement history, ensuring employee privacy is protected.

End Timesheet Guesswork and Disputes

Manual timesheets are unreliable. Gain certainty with location-based time tracking that verifies every employee's presence at the point of clock-in. Our system respects UK GDPR by capturing location only at clock-in/out, providing a fair and accurate record for everyone.

Prevent Remote Clock-ins

Geofencing ensures employees can only track time when they are within the designated work area, stopping off-site check-ins completely.

Stop "Buddy Punching"

Each employee clocks in from their own mobile device, providing individual accountability and eliminating time theft from colleagues punching in for them.

Resolve Location Disputes

Get a clear, timestamped GPS record for every clock-in and clock-out. Settle any questions about on-site presence with indisputable digital proof.

UK Compliance and Data Privacy Built-In

Geo Time Tracker is designed for UK businesses and follows UK GDPR data-minimisation principles.

Customer data is hosted in the United Kingdom (London region – LON1) on DigitalOcean infrastructure.

Location data is processed only at the moment a user actively clocks in or clocks out, solely to verify presence within an approved work location.

The platform does not provide continuous GPS tracking, live location monitoring, or movement history.

Managers can access attendance records and approved timesheets but cannot view live maps or employee movements.

Data access permissions and retention periods are configurable by the customer in line with internal policies and legal obligations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your questions about GPS time tracking, answered.

Yes, when implemented correctly. Under UK GDPR, using GPS for verifying work attendance falls under 'legitimate interest'. Our system is designed for compliance: we only capture location at the moment of clock-in/out for work purposes and never track employees continuously. It's essential to be transparent with staff about this policy.

No. This is a crucial privacy feature of our app. The GPS is only activated for a few seconds at the exact moment an employee presses the clock-in or clock-out button. We do not perform background tracking, so their location is never monitored during their shift or on breaks.

Our app uses the native GPS capabilities of modern smartphones, which are typically accurate to within a few metres under open sky. Accuracy can be slightly reduced indoors or in dense urban areas, but our adjustable geofence radius allows you to set a practical boundary that accounts for minor signal variations.

Our mobile app is designed to work offline. If an employee clocks in without an internet connection, the app securely saves the time and GPS location data on their device. When they regain a signal, the data is automatically synced to the server with the original, correct timestamp.

Yes, but they will not be able to clock in. The app requires location permissions to be enabled to perform a geofenced clock-in. If location services are turned off, the app will prompt the user to enable them before they can record their time. This ensures the integrity of every GPS timesheet entry.
