Google Calendar Data Privacy Disclosure

TurtlesEgg uses Google Sign-In and Google Calendar integration to allow sellers to connect their Google Calendar to their TurtlesEgg seller account for booking and availability management.

When a seller connects their Google account, TurtlesEgg may access Google Calendar data that the seller authorizes, including calendar lists, calendar availability, and calendar events. This access is used only to support the seller’s booking workflow on TurtlesEgg.

TurtlesEgg uses Google Calendar data for the following purposes:

1. To allow sellers to select which Google Calendar they want to sync with TurtlesEgg.
2. To check calendar availability so existing Google Calendar events can block unavailable time slots on TurtlesEgg.
3. To create calendar events when a customer places a booking through TurtlesEgg.
4. To update or remove related calendar events if a TurtlesEgg booking is changed, rescheduled, or cancelled.
5. To help sellers manage their TurtlesEgg bookings and Google Calendar appointments in one place.

TurtlesEgg does not sell Google Calendar data. TurtlesEgg does not use Google Calendar data for advertising, marketing, profiling, or unrelated analytics. Private Google Calendar event details are not displayed to customers. Private or existing calendar events are used only to determine availability and prevent double bookings.

TurtlesEgg does not share Google Calendar data with third parties except when necessary to provide and maintain the calendar synchronization service, comply with applicable law, or protect the security and integrity of our platform. TurtlesEgg stores only the information necessary to provide the calendar integration, such as the seller’s selected calendar connection, authorization tokens, and TurtlesEgg-related booking event information. Access tokens are used only to perform authorized calendar sync actions.

Google Calendar Data Retention After Disconnect

When a seller disconnects Google Calendar, TurtlesEgg immediately stops accessing or syncing that seller’s Google Calendar data. Any stored Google Calendar tokens are deleted or invalidated, and any cached calendar event data is deleted within a defined period, ideally within 30 days, unless retention is required for security, legal, fraud prevention, audit, or transaction record purposes.

TurtlesEgg’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
