Very well done, I always wanted to build a similar product. But all of those tools are always missing the most important feature from my POV: company wide statistics on meetings: - % of meetings per employees in time (i.e. are we more and more spending time in meetings since we are growing) - automatic employees group diagram/relations computation based on meetings invites - who's never in meetings (who's being solo)…

#64This is hilarious. Maybe make a portal for this that just includes a live counter for value lost based on average salaries x people in the room = $$ being spent. That would be a great passive aggressive thing to throw up on your laptop and aim toward the room.

Apart from a privacy policy I do not believe any notice is necessary. The "notices" you see on pages today are actually asking for consent to store data, but you don't need to do that if you aren't storing data. (IANAL) As for bragging about your privacy stance - well - that's a product design decision. Personally I'd probably do it on the "why you should use this" style pages and leave it out of any functional pages…
>The "notices" you see on pages today are actually asking for consent to store data Consent to store data or share it with third parties? I store PII, but I don't share it with any third-party.
Best way to comply with GDPR is read it carefully and/or hire a lawyer.

This is basically what OrgVue does.

I mean if they can't even comply with GDPR (that awful popup) they obviously don't respect their users data to start.
Ouch :), we did work to comply with GDPR and we are. We do not share any of your data with anyone else and never will. I am not sure why they are reporting we are sharing with a 3rd party as we are not, and I have a support ticket open with the popup service to find out why. We will move tomorrow morning to a new one if we can't get that resolved. I am sorry for the trouble there :(.
And honestly, there is no reason to trust a service that uses dark patterns regarding tracking and personal data. If I were you I'd sort this out quickly and also re-evaluate why you are using a service that employs these dark patterns.

If you really care about our privacy that much, please configure the GDPR popup in a way[0] that let your EU visitors to say that they are not allowing third party usage of their personal data. [0] https://www.leonpaternoster.com/posts/techradar-gdpr/
OP here, ya that shouldn't be. We used a GDPR service called ShareThis.com and I will check that as we do not share that with any 3rd party. [Update] - We are only doing 1st party consent so I will email their support to find out what the heck is going on with it showing that.
When you click Customize, and manually turn off all options, the very next page you visit will show you the GDPR prompt again - and again. This definitely violates the consent statutes.
Please let your provider know so they can fix this bug, and on either their or your side, provide an option for a clear No button, or at the very least a quick way to disable all.

#70This is cool, but no way am I granting access to a years worth of calendar. I like how they describe their usage and that they auto remove access. But even if I believe them, there are many errors that would expose hundreds of email, contact info, and docs. I wish they had a scrubber utility I run and can remove unnecessary data. They should not need pii for their stats.
This is cool, but no way am I granting access to a years worth of calendar. I know everything has to be an online web "app" these days, but the privacy concerns could be completely eliminated by simply making this an actual computer program.
