Data and privacy · Canada
Inspection data, EU-hosted.
Quickler keeps Canadian field inspection records on EU servers in Germany, handles them to a GDPR-aligned standard, and turns them into a clean structured audit trail rather than paper.
Where the data lives
EU residency, GDPR-aligned handling
Every inspection a Canadian team records is held on EU servers in Germany, run by Hetzner, accessed through a secure manager dashboard. A GDPR-aligned baseline is one of the strictest in the world, so it tends to be a strong starting point. We cannot give legal advice on your specific Canadian obligations, so run your own privacy review.
Why structured beats paper
An audit trail you can search
Paper and PDF-by-email lose the trail the moment a van leaves site. Quickler keeps a live record on a dashboard with red, amber and green fault status, machine-readable so you can filter, search and report across jobs. The structured record is the product. PDF export is there on demand when a formal document is required.
How capture works
WhatsApp in, structured data out
Field workers answer by text, voice note or photo over WhatsApp, on the phone already in their pocket. No app to install, and you only pay for active users. Upload any form you already use, electrical, gas, plumbing, HVAC, fire safety, facilities, fleet or site checks, and quickler builds it into a guided workflow with a consistent data model behind it.
Built anywhere
Rooted in UK compliance
Quickler grew out of UK compliance work and runs anywhere WhatsApp does, on the same EU-hosted, GDPR-aligned foundation. Pricing is in GBP, with EUR and USD on request.
When a field worker in Canada finishes an inspection, the answers, photos and fault status have to live somewhere. Quickler keeps that record on EU servers in Germany, handles it to a GDPR-aligned standard, and turns it into a clean structured digital audit trail rather than a folder of paper. This page explains where the data sits, how it is protected, and why that matters for a Canadian field team.
EU residency, GDPR-aligned handling
Every inspection a Canadian team records through quickler is held on EU servers in Germany, operated by Hetzner. That gives you a single, known place where the data sits, rather than a scatter of phones, email inboxes and shared drives.
- Records hosted in Germany on EU infrastructure.
- GDPR-aligned handling applied to every workflow, not bolted on later.
- Access through a secure manager dashboard, not loose files.
We cannot give legal advice on your specific Canadian obligations, and you should run your own privacy review. What we can say plainly is that a GDPR-aligned baseline is one of the strictest in the world, so it tends to be a strong starting point rather than a gap to close.
An audit trail you can actually search
Paper and PDF-by-email lose the audit trail the moment a van leaves site. A photo gets buried in a camera roll, a note goes unread, and nobody can answer "when was this last checked" without digging.
- Live record on a dashboard with red, amber and green fault status.
- Machine-readable, so you can filter, search and report across jobs.
- PDF export on demand when a formal document is required.
The structured record is the product. The PDF is just the version you print or send when someone asks for a document. For an audit, the searchable history is what carries the weight.
WhatsApp in, structured data out
A field worker answers questions over WhatsApp by text, voice note or photo, on the phone already in their pocket. There is no app to install, and you only pay for active users, which means there is no new place for data to leak through and no unmanaged device list to police.
Upload any inspection or checklist form you already use, electrical, gas, plumbing, HVAC, fire safety, facilities, fleet or site checks, and quickler builds it into a guided WhatsApp workflow. The data model behind it stays the same regardless of the job, which keeps your records consistent and your privacy posture predictable.
Rooted in UK compliance, used across markets
Quickler grew out of UK compliance work, things like EICR, CP12 and van checks, and is built to work anywhere WhatsApp does. It is used across markets including the UK and beyond, with the same EU-hosted, GDPR-aligned foundation underneath.
Workflows run in English today, with more languages on the roadmap. Pricing is in GBP, with EUR and USD available on request, so a Canadian team can price the work in a currency that suits.
