Google API Services — User Data Policy New
Our application integrates with Google APIs in compliance with the Google API Services User Data Policy. The following disclosures apply to how we access, use, store, and share data obtained through Google APIs.
Application: Whitesails SG booking integration, powered by the BookingPress WordPress plugin.
Purpose: When a client books an appointment through our website, the application automatically creates a corresponding event in the relevant staff member’s Google Calendar. This ensures staff are notified of new bookings in real time and can manage their availability without double-bookings.
1. Data Accessed
Our application requests access to the following Google user data:
- Google Calendar (read/write): Access to create, view, and manage calendar events on behalf of authorized staff members, solely for the purpose of syncing booking appointments.
- Google Account Identity (OAuth): Basic profile information (name and email address) used to authenticate and authorize staff accounts during the OAuth consent flow.
2. Data Usage
Google user data accessed by our application is used exclusively to:
- Create calendar events in a staff member’s Google Calendar when a new client booking is confirmed through BookingPress.
- Authenticate the staff member’s identity via Google Sign-In (OAuth 2.0) to authorize calendar access.
We do not use Google user data for advertising, profiling, or any purpose unrelated to appointment management.
3. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or share Google user data with any third parties. Google user data accessed through our integration is never transferred to external services, analytics platforms, CRMs, or marketing tools. It is used solely within the scope of the booking-to-calendar sync functionality described above.
4. Data Storage & Protection
Our application does not persistently store Google user data on our servers or any external database. All Google API interactions are processed in real time at the point of booking — calendar events are written directly to the staff member’s Google Calendar, and no Google user data is retained afterward on our end.
OAuth tokens required for authorized API access are handled securely by the BookingPress plugin and WordPress, and are protected by standard WordPress security practices including encrypted storage and restricted access.
5. Data Retention & Deletion
Because we do not store Google user data on our systems, there is no Google user data to retain or delete on our end beyond the duration of an active OAuth session.
Staff members may revoke our application’s access to their Google Calendar at any time by visiting their Google Account permissions page at https://myaccount.google.com/permissions and removing access for the Whitesails SG application. Upon revocation, the integration will immediately cease to function for that account.
To request any additional data deletion or to raise a concern about our Google API data practices, please contact us directly using the details below.
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. We do not sell or share personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Booking data is processed by BookingPress and, where a staff member has authorized calendar sync, is sent directly to Google Calendar via the Google Calendar API. No booking data is sent to any other external service.
