Last Updated: June 9, 2026 Effective Date: July 1, 2026
ExpoShift collects the information needed to run your restaurant scheduling and team management — account details, employee information you enter, and basic technical/usage data.

4. How We Share Your Information
ExpoShift does not sell personal information to third parties for monetary consideration and does not disclose personal information to third parties for their independent marketing purposes.We share information only in the following circumstances:
Service Providers (Sub-processors) We use the following third-party service providers to support and operate the Service. These providers are authorized to access information only as reasonably necessary to perform services on our behalf and are subject to contractual obligations designed to protect the information they process. We may also engage additional providers that support functions such as hosting, security monitoring, communications delivery, customer support, analytics, storage, or infrastructure operations. We will update this Privacy Policy as required when material changes occur.
- Google Firebase / Google Cloud — database (Cloud Firestore), user authentication, and supporting cloud infrastructure. Employee records, schedules, messages, and account data are stored here.
- Netlify — hosting of the ExpoShift web application.
- jsDelivr (CDN) — delivery of static interface assets (icon fonts and stylesheets). The CDN may receive your IP address when these assets load.
- Payment processor — when subscription billing is active, a third-party payment processor handles subscription payments. ExpoShift does not store full payment card numbers.
Business Operators and Their Staff Information within an ExpoShift account may be accessible to the applicable Account Owner and users authorized by the Account Owner based on role permissions established within the account. Administrators and Managers may be able to view employee schedules, availability, contact information, certifications, communications, and other information associated with employee use of the Service, depending on the permissions configured.
The Account Owner is responsible for determining user roles, permissions, and access rights within its account and for its own use of information available through the Service. ExpoShift does not control or monitor how Account Owners use information made available to them through the Service.
Legal Requirements We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or governmental authority, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of ExpoShift, our users, or the public.
Business Transfers If ExpoShift is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing transaction, asset sale, restructuring, bankruptcy, or other corporate transaction, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will provide notice before your information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
Affiliates and Corporate Transactions We may share information among entities under common ownership or control for purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy.
With Your Consent We may share information for other purposes with your explicit consent.
5. Employee Data — Special Considerations
ExpoShift provides workforce scheduling and communication tools to restaurant operators and processes certain employee information in connection with providing the Service. ExpoShift stores personal information about employees on behalf of the restaurants that subscribe to our Service. If you are an employee whose information has been entered into ExpoShift by your employer:
- Your employer (the restaurant operator) controls your account and data within ExpoShift
- ExpoShift processes your information as a service to your employer, not on our own behalf
- For questions about how your employer uses your information in ExpoShift, contact your employer directly
- For requests to delete your information from ExpoShift’s systems (e.g., following employment termination), contact your employer, who can remove your profile, or contact us at privacy@exposhift.com
- ExpoShift may assist employers with responding to data-related requests where appropriate and may retain certain information where necessary for legal compliance, security purposes, dispute resolution, fraud prevention, recordkeeping, backup systems, or enforcement of our agreements
- You may also be able to delete your own account directly in the app (My Information → Delete my account). This removes your sign-in and erases your personal information; an anonymized record of your past schedule and work history may be retained by your employer as part of their business records
6. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Service, maintain customer accounts, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, maintain security, and support legitimate business operations.
Employee information associated with a customer account is generally retained while the applicable customer account remains active and for a limited period thereafter to support account administration, recovery, troubleshooting, and legal or operational needs.
When an account owner deletes a restaurant's ExpoShift account, the account is locked immediately and its data — including employee information — is scheduled for permanent deletion after a limited recovery period (currently 30 days), during which the owner can reverse the deletion. After that period, the data is permanently deleted, except for the limited records described in this section.
When an individual staff member deletes their own account, we remove their login and personal identifiers (such as name, contact details, emergency contact, date of birth, and certification records). An anonymized record sufficient to preserve the employer's scheduling and operating history may be retained.
Certain information may be retained for longer periods where required or permitted by law, including billing records, security logs, audit records, backup systems, fraud prevention records, and information subject to legal obligations or dispute resolution requirements.
When information is no longer reasonably necessary for these purposes, we will take reasonable steps to delete, de-identify, or securely dispose of it.
7. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. These rights may be subject to legal limitations, verification requirements, and exceptions. Rights that may be available include:
• Access: Request information regarding the personal information we maintain about you
• Correction: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information
• Deletion: Request deletion of personal information, subject to legal, operational, security, and other permitted exceptions
• Data Portability: Request a copy of certain information in a portable format where required by applicable law
• Restriction or Objection: Request limitations on certain processing activities where applicable law provides such rights
• Withdrawal of Consent: Where processing is based on consent, withdraw that consent where permitted by law
If you are an employee whose information was provided through an employer's ExpoShift account, your employer may control certain information within the Service. In many cases, requests relating to employee information should first be directed to your employer.

8. Data Security
ExpoShift implements reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, misuse, and destruction.
Our security measures may include, as appropriate:
• Encryption of information during transmission and, where applicable, at rest
• Access controls and authentication measures designed to limit access to authorized users and personnel
• Logical separation of customer account data
• Security monitoring, logging, and system maintenance practices
• Measures intended to detect, investigate, and respond to security incidents
Although we take reasonable steps to protect information, no method of transmitting information over the Internet or storing electronic information can be guaranteed to be completely secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
If we become aware of a security incident involving personal information, we may investigate and take appropriate steps to contain and address the issue. Where required by applicable law, we will provide notifications to affected individuals, customers, or governmental authorities.
9. Cookies and Browser Storage
ExpoShift uses limited browser based storage, including cookies, localStorage, and sessionStorage, to operate the Service. We do not use third-party advertising cookies, and we do not use cross-site tracking technologies.
- Authentication / session storage: The Service stores sign-in session data in your browser (via the authentication provider) so you stay logged in. This is essential for the Service to function.
- Preference storage: The Service stores certain in-app preferences (such as layout and display settings) in your browser so they persist between sessions.
Clearing your browser storage will sign you out and reset saved preferences.
• Device‑level control — You may clear your browser’s cookies or storage at any time. Doing so will sign you out of the Service and reset saved preferences.
• No advertising or cross‑site tracking — We do not use advertising cookies, third‑party trackers, or technologies that follow you across other websites or apps.

Such access is created and controlled by the employer and is not directly provided by ExpoShift to individual employees. Age requirements for employee access are determined by the employer and applicable law.
If you believe a minor’s information has been entered into ExpoShift improperly, contact the restaurant operator that controls the account, or contact us at privacy@exposhift.com.
