Improving our data protection

In the interests of best protecting our customers on myInspections we have made a few changes to the platform that are focused on respecting your data. In addition these changes help us comply with the growing complexities of data protection laws around the world. We'd love to explain these changes for you.

Your data on myInspections

  • We will only ask you for relevant data to help create your inspections,
  • We will provide you a copy of your data should you request it, and
  • We will delete your data should you request it.

Simply put - we will try to collect the minimum data from you and we give you control of it on myInspections.

Cookies and analytics

We have switched our analytics do cookie-free analytics that doesn't follow you around the web. This gives us enough insights to see which parts of our app are getting the most attention but respects the privacy of individual users.

The only cookies we use on our site are those that are essential for myInspections to operate.

We're proud to make changes like this that reduce the data footprint of myInspections and puts you first.

Checklists just got superpowered

We are excited to release v2.0 of checklists. Previously, when building a checklist, you'd itemize things to check, and you'd get a simple (but powerful) "no issues"/"requires attention". This has worked for years, but by popular demand, we have extended our checklists to be much more powerful. Now, it's hard to imagine inspections and workflows that you can't run on myInspections. As of today on the web, and from v1.11.13 in the app, checklists include five types: • Condition: Our trusty ...

NSPIRE checklists

We've built a new flow for running NSPIRE inspections. They are catered specifically for U.S. Affordable Housing providers. If they apply to you, we think you'll be very happy to know about our first-class support for them! • Every NSPIRE standard is an area, and every deficiency is a one-tap answer with its location and severity. Skip any area that doesn't apply by marking it N/A. • Get started with our NSPIRE inspection checklist template. • It's an early release, so expect changes, and we...
