Check-in Safe
An app and dedicated service to help the community return to normal; eating out and attending entertainment venues. Whilst increasing the accuracy, privacy, and security of existing contract tracing practices during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The customer problem
As a way to help increase the accuracy of COVID-19 contract tracing within New South Wales, the government required all restaurants, cafes, and entertainment venues to record their customer’s names, numbers, emails, and arrival times.

Insecure personal data
Personal details were often written down in a diary, recorded in a google document, or submitted via a third party service. All of which dealt with the customer data in an insecure way, often with little messaging to the customer as to how the data was stored and for how long.

Exposure to data selling
With so much vulnerable personal data, without T&Cs and with no legal restrictions, personal information was easily made available to be sold to advertising and marketing companies. Resulting in an increase of spam and advertising emails.

Transparency of process
Once a customer's data was handed over to restaurants or third parties there was a lack of transparency of the process undertaken or when a COVID-19 case was found, often relying on the invisible process of governments and trusting venues to hand-off details securely.
