12.Dispute Resolution
12.1 The Parties will use their best efforts to negotiate in good faith and settle any dispute that may arise out of or relate to this Privacy Policy or any breach of it.
12.2 If any such dispute cannot be settled amicably through ordinary negotiations between the parties, or either or both is or are unwilling to engage in this process, either party may propose to the other in writing that structured negotiations be entered into with the assistance of a fully accredited mediator before resorting to litigation.

12.8 Any dispute shall not affect the parties’ ongoing obligations under this Privacy Policy.
13.Location
When using the mobile application, we use GPS technology to determine your current location. This is so we can verify you are clocking in at the correct location. Your location will only be tracked while the application is running. We will not share your current location with other users or partners.
14.Camera
When first starting the application it will request access to the camera. The camera is used to scan a QR code located on our site. When the QR code is scanned the mobile application will assign the user to the correct company. We do not use the camera for any other purposes.
15.Bluetooth
The mobile application uses Bluetooth to connect to the Metricreg biometric device. The application will scan for nearby devices and the biometric device should be selected. Then the user will scan their fingerprint and will be clocked in/out. No devices found or connected by Bluetooth will be saved on the application. We do not use Bluetooth for anything else.
16.Storage
The mobile application uses 22MB of storage space. We also use storage space on the phone to hold offline clock in/out data. If a user decides to use the offline clock in/out feature then their time of entry or exit will be stored on the mobile phone until a connection to the internet is found. Once there is an internet connection the application will sync with the Metricreg server and the data stored on the phone will be transferred to the server. After the sync the data stored on the phone will be removed.
