What We Collect

• User Data: If you sign up or use Theycal, we may collect your email address (for account stuff or transactional emails) and the Google or Microsoft calendar you connect, using the permissions you approve on Google's or Microsoft's sign-in screen.
• Event Data: Organizers (like venues or bands) manually enter event details—titles, dates, times, and ticketing links (e.g., "See Tickets"). We store that to sync it to your calendar.
• Technical Stuff: Basic logs like IP addresses or device info when you use the site, plus click tracking on links within calendar events to help organizers understand engagement.

How We Use It

• To add, update and remove the events of businesses you follow in the Google or Microsoft calendar you connect. We don't read the other events in your calendar.
• To send transactional emails (e.g., confirmations or updates) if you're opted in.
• To generate affiliate links for ticketing platforms like "See Tickets"—we might earn a small commission if you buy through those, but it doesn't cost you extra.
• To troubleshoot or improve Theycal—no creepy nonsense.

How We Store It

Event data and emails live on Amazon S3, secured with encryption. We don't mess around with your info.

We keep it only as long as needed to make Theycal work or as required by law.

Sharing Your Info

We don't sell or rent your data. Period.

We share event data with Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook (duh, for the sync) and ticketing platforms (for affiliate links). That's it.

If the law comes knocking, we'll comply, but only if we have to.

Your Choices

Unsubscribe from an organizer's events anytime—stops the sync.

Remove TheyCal's access to your calendar anytime from your Google Account or your Microsoft account. To have us take our events off your calendar first, remove the calendar under Connected Accounts in your TheyCal settings, then remove our access.

Hit us up at hello@theycal.com to delete your account or ask about your data.

Security

SSL's locked in, and we use standard tech to keep things safe. No system's perfect, but we're on it.

Affiliate Disclosure

We may earn a commission from links. It helps us keep Theycal running and doesn't change your price.

Google Workspace APIs

When you connect Google Calendar, we ask Google for your email address, basic profile and one calendar permission, calendar.events, so we can add, update and remove the events of businesses you follow.

We use Google Workspace APIs solely for the purpose of syncing event data to your Google Calendar as described in this Privacy Policy. We explicitly affirm that we do not use Google Workspace APIs to develop, improve, or train generalized artificial intelligence (AI) and/or machine learning (ML) models.

Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Graph

When you connect a Microsoft account, we ask Microsoft for these permissions and no others:

• openid, email, profile and User.Read, to sign you in and know who you are.
• Calendars.ReadWrite, to add, update and remove the events of businesses you follow in your Outlook calendar.
• offline_access, so a business's change reaches your calendar when you're not using TheyCal.

We use Microsoft Graph solely to keep those events in your calendar as described in this Privacy Policy. We don't read the other events in your calendar, we don't sell or share what we get from Microsoft, and we don't use it to develop, improve, or train generalized artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML) models.
