Privacy Policy


Andgo's Committment to Privacy

Your privacy is important to us. It is Andgo Systems’ policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect from you across our website, https://andgosystems.com, and other sites we own and operate.

Andgo Systems identifies and communicates available shift details to employees and gives you the opportunity to manage your schedule. When you access and use our scheduling services (the “Services”), you agree to let us collect, use, disclose, and retain certain personal information that is given to us by you and your employer. This Privacy Policy provides a basic outline of how and why we do that and how we safeguard your information.

Compliance With Laws

We’re committed to protecting your personal information and complying with all relevant legislation, such as the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act. We’ll continue to update this Privacy Policy to ensure we can do this to the best of our ability. If we make any changes to our privacy policy, we’ll be sure to let you know. When you continue using the Services after changes are made known to you, you’ll be agreeing to the revised Privacy Policy.

Andgo Systems is a Canadian corporation and is compliant with applicable Canadian privacy laws and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). As we are a Canadian company and Canada is recognized by the European Union as a destination country with an adequate level of protection for the data privacy of individuals, we are permitted to retain personal data of EU data subjects in Canada. 

Information Collected by the Andgo Systems Application

We only collect personal information that is necessary to our provision of the Services. For the most part, we receive that information – such as your name, employee number, email addresses (business or personal), phone numbers, scheduling details, and other employment information – from your employer.

We may also collect some personal information directly from you, such as the email address you use to log in to the Services, your notification preferences, your login and password, and any employment absence-related details you might include in requests for leave. Please do not share any personal information in those requests that you would not want your employer or colleagues to see.

We may collect other technical information about you when you use the Services. This information may include the type of device you use to access our services (such as your computer, phone, or tablet), but it may also include information about the make and model of your device, your operating system, browser type and IP address. We may collect or receive some of this information through the use of analytical technology or cookies to improve your experience when using the Services.

Information Collection and Disclosure to Third Parties

In general, we are going to use your information to enable us to provide you and your employer with the Services. Additionally, there could be circumstances where we are required by law to share some of your personal information. For instance, we may have to disclose personal information in accordance with a court order or a search warrant, or if it is required in an emergency. This information may be disclosed in relation to a merger, acquisition or sale of some or all of our assets or our business. If the latter happens, we will let you know.

We may use an anonymized history of your interaction with the system when conducting testing or research with respect to the Services, and we may disclose that anonymized data to third parties to assist us with analyzing trends, such as which parts of the Services you and your colleagues use most.

We may disclose technical performance metrics to third party services that monitor system performance and alert us of performance problems or errors.

We do not sell your personal information.

Data Storage

Andgo Systems securely stores your data in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) data centres located in Canada. Google does not have access to customer data and all storage is encrypted in accordance with GCP’s Encryption at Rest Policy.

Andgo Systems will keep customer data such as your name, employee number, email addresses, phone numbers, scheduling details, and other employment information for 7 years after its use has been exhausted. Once this time period has expired, we will delete your data. See https://cloud.google.com/docs/security/deletion for more information.

Safeguarding Your Information

We use best practices in storage and encryption to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, collection, use and disclosure.

Our team is trained to understand the importance of privacy and will use your information only to the extent necessary to provide the Services. We only retain personal information for as long as necessary to provide the Services and take appropriate safety measures when destroying or disposing of your information.
