Privacy Policy - R2R Calendar

This Privacy Policy explains how R2R Calendar ("We," "Us," or "Our") collects, uses, and discloses your information when you use our application ("Service"). It also outlines your privacy rights and how the law protects you. By using R2R Calendar, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

We are an individual-operated service based in Israel, committed to providing a calendar assistant while respecting your privacy.

AI and Machine Learning Data Usage

R2R Calendar uses Google’s Gemini API to process WhatsApp messages and schedule events. Here’s how we handle your data with respect to AI and machine learning:

No AI Training: R2R does not use Google Workspace API data, such as calendar events, phone numbers, or OAuth tokens, to develop, improve, or train any AI or machine learning models, whether generalized or personalized.
Gemini Usage: We use Gemini only to interpret your messages for creating calendar events (e.g., “Meeting tomorrow 3pm”). No user data is used to train or enhance Gemini or other AI systems.
No Third-Party AI: We do not transfer your data to third-party AI tools for any AI or machine learning purposes. Your data supports R2R’s scheduling feature only.
Compliance: We adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements, ensuring your data is used solely for authorized purposes.

Collecting and Using Your Personal Data

Types of Data Collected

Personal Data

When you use R2R Calendar, we may collect limited personally identifiable information, including:

Event Creations: Information about events you create (e.g., titles, dates, times) is sent to our servers to enable the Service. We do not actively view or analyze this data unless required for technical support or legal compliance.

Your Device's IP address, browser type, operating system, and unique device identifiers.
Technical data like the time and date of your use and diagnostic information.

This data is collected to ensure the Service functions properly and to improve your experience.

Google Calendar Data Handling

R2R Calendar integrates with Google Calendar to provide its core functionality. Here's how we handle Google user data:

Access: We only access your Google Calendar to add new events as requested by you. We do not read, view, or analyze any existing calendar events or data.
Usage: We use Google Calendar access solely to create new events that you request through our Service. No other operations are performed on your calendar data.
Storage: We do not store any Google Calendar data on our servers. The only data we temporarily process is the event information you provide, which is immediately used to create the calendar event and then discarded.
Sharing: We do not share any Google Calendar data with third parties. The only interaction is between our Service and your Google Calendar account to create the events you request.

Our Service operates on a request-by-request basis - when you make a request to add an event, we process that specific request and do not retain any information about the event or your calendar after the operation is complete.

Use of Your Personal Data

We use your Personal Data for the following purposes:

To Provide and Maintain the Service: Including processing event creations and ensuring calendar integration works smoothly.
To Improve the Service: Usage Data helps us analyze performance and enhance functionality.
To Comply with Legal Obligations: We may use your data if required by law or to protect our rights.

We do not use your data for marketing, promotions, or to contact you unless you reach out to us first.

Sharing Your Personal Data

We may share your information in these limited cases:

With Service Providers: Third parties who help us host servers, process data, or analyze usage (e.g., cloud providers). They are bound to keep your data confidential.
For Legal Reasons: If required by law, a court, or government authority in Israel or elsewhere.
Business Transfers: If R2R Calendar is sold or transferred, your data may be included as an asset, with notice provided where possible.

We do not share event creation details or calendar IDs with anyone unless legally compelled.

Retention of Your Personal Data

Event Creations: Retained on our servers only as long as needed to provide the Service (e.g., until you delete the event or stop using the app). We do not actively monitor or store this data beyond its functional purpose.
Calendar IDs: Kept only while necessary for integration, then discarded when no longer needed.
Usage Data: Retained for internal analysis, typically for a short period, unless needed for security or legal reasons.

We comply with Israeli law regarding data retention and may keep data longer if required to resolve disputes or enforce agreements.

Transfer of Your Personal Data

Your data is processed in Israel but may be stored or handled by service providers in other countries (e.g., cloud hosting). We ensure any transfer complies with this Privacy Policy and includes reasonable security measures. By using the Service, you consent to such transfers.

Your Rights to Your Personal Data

Under Israeli law and applicable regulations (e.g., GDPR if serving EU users), you may have rights to:

Request access to, correction of, or deletion of your Personal Data.
Contact us to exercise these rights (see "Contact Us" below).

Since we don't offer accounts, you cannot delete data directly in the app. However, stopping use of the Service and contacting us can initiate data removal, subject to legal retention obligations.

Disclosure of Your Personal Data

We may disclose your data:

For Legal Compliance: If required by Israeli authorities or to protect our rights, safety, or property.
In Business Transactions: If R2R Calendar undergoes a sale or merger, with prior notice where feasible.

Security of Your Personal Data

We use commercially reasonable measures to protect your data, but no online service is 100% secure. Event creations are stored on our servers but not actively accessed by us, and calendar IDs are processed only for integration.

Children's Privacy

R2R Calendar is not intended for users under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If we learn such data has been collected, we will delete it. Contact us if you believe a child has provided us with data.

Links to Other Websites

The Service may link to third-party sites (e.g., calendar providers). We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Review their policies if you follow these links.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this policy as needed. Changes will be posted here with an updated "Last Updated" date. Continued use of R2R Calendar after changes means you accept the new terms.
