Such data is deleted from the server after synchronization is completed. BlueShifts may also permanently store limited non-scheduling information, such as the user's selected home state and county, to support App functionality.

BlueShifts does not maintain centralized databases containing users' schedules, addresses, financial records, or work-related information.

Users remain fully responsible for managing and protecting their financial information.

5. Address & Location Information

Users may optionally enter addresses, worksite locations, destination information, or related scheduling details into the Application.

These Terms shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with the applicable laws of the jurisdiction in which the Application operator conducts business, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

17. Google Account and Calendar Integration

BlueShifts’ Google Calendar integration is optional and disabled by default. If you choose to connect a Google Account, BlueShifts requests permission to:

create and manage a dedicated BlueShifts calendar;
list your calendars and read events from a calendar you select; and
identify the connected account and display its email address.

BlueShifts may send the title, notes, location, and start and end times of shifts you choose to publish. It may read the title, description, location, and start and end times of events from a calendar you select. Pay rates, earnings, overtime, mileage, and other financial information are never included in calendar events.

Google user data is used only to provide the Calendar integration, including publishing shifts, displaying events from a shared calendar, and granting view-only access to your BlueShifts calendar when you explicitly request it. It is not sold, used for advertising or profiling, or used to train machine-learning models. Google Calendar requests are made directly between your device and Google. Google user data and authorization tokens are not transmitted to or stored on BlueShifts servers. Calendar data is stored locally on your device, and authorization tokens are stored in your device’s secure system storage.

You may disconnect your Google Account at any time, which revokes BlueShifts’ access and removes stored authorization tokens. You may also revoke access through your Google Account permissions. Uninstalling the application removes locally stored calendar data. Calendars and events created in your Google Account remain under your control and may be deleted through Google Calendar. BlueShifts’ use and transfer of information received from Google APIs complies with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
