We are Schedulicity, Inc. (“Schedulicity,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). We are
located at 424 East Main, Ste. 201, Bozeman, Montana. Schedulicity takes your privacy
seriously. Please read the following to learn more about our privacy policy, (the
“Policy”) which describes how we treat personal information when you use the Schedulicity
website (“Website”), as defined in our Terms of
Use. This Policy is part of the Terms of Use that govern all use of the
Website. Any capitalized terms used but not defined in this Policy are defined in
the Terms of Use.
What This Privacy Policy Covers
This privacy policy covers Schedulicity’s treatment of personally identifiable information
that Schedulicity collects when you are on Schedulicity sites, and when you use Schedulicity’s
services. This policy also covers Schedulicity’s treatment of any personally identifiable
information that Website service providers share with Schedulicity.
This policy does not apply to the practices of companies that Schedulicity does not
own or control or to people that Schedulicity does not employ or manage.
The Website also collects information that does not personally identify you ("NonPII"),
which is commonly collected on the Internet. For example, we collect: the name of
the domain and host for your Internet access (e.g., AOL, MSN); your computer's Internet
address, browser software and operating system; dates and times of access or actions;
and the Internet address you left before reaching us. We use NonPII for ordinary
business purposes, such as to measure web page flow and also to customize features.
Generally, we do not share NonPII with unaffiliated third parties other than our
service providers but reserve the right to do so.
Information Collection and Use
Schedulicity collects personally identifiable information when you use certain Schedulicity
products or services. Schedulicity may also receive personally identifiable information
from Website service providers.
Schedulicity also automatically receives and records information on our server logs,
such as the browser you are using, your IP address, and the pages you requested.
Schedulicity shares personally identifiable information with the businesses where you
schedule reservations.
Schedulicity may also use this information to customize your experience on the Website
and to present Website users with web advertisements of interest to you based on
your scheduling activities.
To prevent your mailbox from receiving unwelcome correspondence, each service provider
using Schedulicity’s services maintains an opt-out list for electronic mailings you
may receive from them.
We use both your personally identifiable information and certain non-personally-identifiable
information (such as anonymous user usage data, cookies, IP addresses, browser type,
clickstream data, etc.) to improve the quality and design of the Website and to
create new features, promotions, functionality, and services by storing, tracking,
analyzing, and processing user preferences and trends, as well as user activity
and communications.
We will not use your email address or other personally identifiable information
to send commercial or marketing messages without your consent or except as part
of a specific program or feature for which you will have the ability to opt-in or
opt-out. We may, however, use your email address without further consent for transactional
or administrative purposes (such as notifying you of major Website changes or for
customer service purposes).
Subscribe/Unsubscribe
To unsubscribe from a service provider’s mailing list, use the Unsubscribe link
that is available in each e-mail you receive from them. This does not suppress emails
sent directly from service providers using services other than Schedulicity’s. Unsubscribing
only suppresses emails sent on the initiative of service providers using Schedulicity’s
services with whom you have an existing business relationship. Note that even after
you unsubscribe, you will continue to receive transactional email messages regarding
the status of reservations you schedule.
Cookies
Schedulicity may set and access cookies on your computer. Schedulicity may allow other
companies to use cookies, or use electronic images (e.g., GIFs) that allow a website
to count users who have visited that page or to access certain cookies. We do this
to improve and enhance the functionality of our website. If you choose to not allow
a cookie on your computer, our website may not work correctly.
We also may use cookies, clear gifs, and log file information to: (a) store information
so that you will not have to re-enter it during your visit or the next time you
visit the Website; (b) provide custom, personalized content and information; (c)
monitor the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns; (d) monitor aggregate metrics
such as total number of visitors, pages viewed, etc.; and (e) track your entries,
submissions, and status in any promotions, sweepstakes and contests.
Third-party Advertisers, Links to Other Websites
Schedulicity allows other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks,
to serve advertisements within the Website. These third-party ad servers or ad networks
use technology to send, directly to your browser, the advertisements and links that
appear on the Website. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens.
They may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, or web beacons)
to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize the advertising
content you see.
Please note that if an advertiser asks us to show an advertisement to a certain
audience (for example, women ages 18-34) or audience segment (for example, men ages
18-24 who have viewed certain channels of content) and you respond to that advertisement,
the advertiser or ad-server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience
they are trying to reach. The advertiser may also use information regarding your
use of the Website, such as the number of times you viewed an ad (but not any personally
identifiable information), to determine which ads to deliver to you.
You should consult the respective privacy policies of these third-party ad servers
or ad networks for more information on their practices and for instructions on how
to opt-out of certain practices. Our privacy policy does not apply to, and we cannot
control the activities of, such other advertisers or web Websites. Any data obtained
by third-party ad servers subsequently shared with us is maintained in accordance
with this privacy policy.
We reserve the right to use, disclose, share, sell, retain and otherwise deal with
(collectively “disclose”) all information collected via the Website, internally
or to third parties, for any lawful purpose or to prevent harm to us or others.
For example and without limitation, in our discretion we may disclose information:
- To service providers and others in order to deal with requests and questions from
you; to personalize or enhance transactions; to verify, process, store, enforce,
investigate and/or collect actual or potential transactions; and to assist or respond
to any of the forgoing or our consultants (such as auditors and lenders);
- To government regulators, law enforcement authorities or alleged victims of identity
theft, including voluntary disclosures;
- About any matter relating to the Website or your account;
- We reserve the right (but do not undertake a duty) to notify you of court orders,
subpoenas or other legal process (if allowed). If you do not want us to respond
to legal process compelling us to disclose your information, you need to seek a
valid order permitting us to refuse to disclose it and serve the order on us at
least 3 business days before the response deadline; and
- Not listed in this Policy but which is not prohibited by law from being disclosed.
We do not purport to have listed all possible disclosures that we might make --
this Policy is intended to help you understand our general practices. This Policy
is not a promise that your information will never be disclosed except as described
above. For example, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access information
transmitted to or contained on the Website, technologies may malfunction or not
work as anticipated, or someone might access, abuse or misuse information, despite
a lack of permission. Although we use what we believe to be commercially reasonable
practices to protect your privacy, that does not mean, and you should not expect
it to mean, that your information or communications will always be private or protected.
Perfection does not exist on or off the Internet.
We generally will retain information for as long as required, allowed or for as
long as we believe it useful, but do not undertake retention obligations. We may
dispose of information in our discretion without notice, subject to applicable law.
Information about security:
For transactions involving credit or debit cards, service providers should use secure
socket layer (SSL) encryption to protect the transmission of credit or debit card
information through our Website.
Your emails to us are not necessarily secure against interception and you should
not include sensitive information in those emails – we generally will not ask for
your credit or debit card number, password, prescription or other sensitive information
in an email and you should assume that if you get such a request, it might be fraudulent.
Except for the SSL transmissions, the Website is not encrypted. However, access
to your user data is restricted by your password.
Neither passwords nor security systems, including encryption, are foolproof or necessarily
work as intended. Furthermore, people can commit intentional crimes, make mistakes
or fail to follow policies. Although we take what we believe are commercially reasonable
security precautions, we do not guaranty the security of information and you agree
to do what you reasonably can to help promote security (such as by not sharing your
password with anyone). We are required in some circumstances (e.g., if you are a
resident of California and other conditions are met) to disclose an invasion of
certain security systems. We will give that notice when required, either by posting
it on the Website or by giving notice at your email address on file with us, in
our discretion. You agree to check the Website periodically, particularly if you
use spam filters, which can sometimes mischaracterize and block emails.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to change this Policy in our discretion in accordance with
the provisions in the Terms regarding amendments, including changes that will retroactively
apply to data that we already have collected from you. If we make any substantial
changes we will notify you by posting a notice with our revised privacy, and through
any other means, such as notices on the Website, that we deem appropriate and reasonable.
Note About Children's Privacy Issues
Schedulicity’s primary audience is adults looking to schedule reservations with service or
resource providers. For that reason, when you register, we will ask you to confirm that
you are over the age of 16.
We have no intention of collecting personal information from children under the age of 16.
Any use of our Website by children under the age of 16 should only be conducted under the
supervision of that child’s parent or guardian. If a child under the age of 13 has provided
his or her personal information, a parent or guardian may so inform us by emailing
privacy@schedulicity.com or calling 406-582-0494, and we will use commercially reasonable
efforts to delete that child’s personal information from our database (subject to applicable
law and this Policy). For more information about children’s privacy on the internet, please

Submitting a Claim for Identity Theft
If you or any other person believes they are a victim of identity theft, and are
therefore entitled by law to request certain business records in our control, we
will attempt to verify the claim as allowed by law. You need to do all of the following:
- Write us at our Legal Notices Address and include in the letter the following information
about the transaction that you know or can readily obtain: (a) the date of the transaction
or other relevant act; (b) any other identifying information such as an account
or transaction number; and (c) other information reasonably relevant to the transaction
alleged to result from identity theft; and
- Information about you. Include in the letter information that identifies you, including:
- a government-issued identification card such as a driver’s license. You may send
us a copy but we reserve the right to have you physically present it to us or our
agent; and
- personal information about you of the type that was provided by the alleged identity
thief, or of the type that we typically require for transactions; and
- Affidavits and Police Report. Include with the letter:
- a properly completed and executed affidavit of fact on a form acceptable to us.
You may use the standardized form available at the time of your request from the
Federal Trade Commission; and
- a copy of the police report evidencing the claim of identity theft; and
- Authorization for Sharing with Law Enforcement. If you want us to provide the records
we provided to you to a law enforcement agency or officer investigating the identity
theft, you must specify in the letter who that agency or officer is and supply their
proper mailing address. Even without specification, we may still provide the records
if you otherwise have authorized that agency or officer to take receipt of the records.
We reserve the right to require without prior notice, more, less, or different information
from time to time as allowed by applicable law.
Once we receive all required information, we will provide records as required by
law (subject to our rights and defenses). If we are required to comply with laws
other than federal law, your rights and ours may vary from the above.
