Third-Party Calendar Integrations

The following disclosure describes how Exlink handles data from connected Google and Microsoft calendars. It is reproduced here for transparency; the binding provisions remain in the Terms of Service, Section 14.

Exlink lets you connect your Google or Microsoft calendar so people can book meetings with you and so those meetings stay in sync. The data we access is used solely to provide this scheduling feature — we do not sell it, share it for advertising, or use it for any unrelated purpose.

Google Calendar

When you connect Google Calendar, you grant Exlink permission to:

• See and edit events on your calendars (calendar.events) — create the meeting event (with a Google Meet link) when someone books you, update it on reschedule, delete it on cancellation, and watch for changes you make directly in Google Calendar so they sync back to Exlink.
• View free/busy information (calendar.events.freebusy) — used only to find your open times so your booking page offers genuinely available slots; we do not read the titles, attendees, or details of your other events.
• View your list of calendars (calendar.calendarlist.readonly) — so you can choose which calendar Exlink writes to and reads availability from.
• Your basic Google profile (name, email) — to identify the connected account.

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

Microsoft / Outlook Calendar

When you connect a Microsoft (Outlook or Microsoft 365) calendar, you grant Exlink permission to:

• Read and write your calendars and events (Calendars.ReadWrite) — create the meeting event (with a Microsoft Teams link) when someone books you, update it on reschedule, delete it on cancellation, read your availability so your booking page only offers open slots, list your calendars so you can choose which one Exlink uses, and subscribe to changes so edits you make in Outlook stay in sync with Exlink.
• Sign you in and read your basic profile (User.Read) — your name and email, to identify the connected account.
• Maintain the connection (offline_access) — so Exlink can perform the above on your behalf without asking you to sign in every time.

Exlink’s access to and use of Microsoft data complies with the Microsoft APIs Terms of Use.

Data Storage and Disconnection

We store the OAuth access and refresh tokens for your connected account (encrypted at rest) so Exlink can act on your behalf, together with the identifiers of the events we create and the calendars you select. We retain this only while your calendar is connected. You can disconnect at any time from your calendar settings in Exlink, which deletes our stored tokens. You can also revoke Exlink’s access directly through your provider — Google at myaccount.google.com/permissions, Microsoft at myaccount.microsoft.com (work/school accounts) or account.live.com/consent/Manage (personal accounts).
