Simple Calendar and GDPR
On May 25th 2018, the most comprehensive change to privacy legislation ever undertaken —the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)— took effect.
Here at Simple Calendar, we take data protection very seriously. As a cloud-based company entrusted with our customers’ data, we remain committed to securing our users’ data as a top priority.
Continuing to protect our customers’ information is extremely important to us. Measures we are taking include:
- Continuing to invest in our security infrastructure.
- Giving users the ability to access their data and delete their accounts.
- Ensure there’s a consent checkbox and all user data is gathered only after receiving appropriate consent.
- Anonymizing IP addresses for Google Analytics
- For customers located in the EU: Implementing a more robust Cookie Policy to ensure merchants have the information they need to get effective consent for us to place the cookies necessary to provide our platform.
- Working to ensure we have the appropriate contractual terms in place with all relevant third parties.
- Updating our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
