Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 27, 2026
Overview
While is an open-source tool that syncs Google Calendar events with Notion databases. This policy explains what the public project website at while.so collects and how that information is used.
Data We Access
The public website does not connect to your Google Calendar or Notion workspace.
- Website analytics - We use Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights to understand page views, referrers, device type, browser, and performance metrics.
- Technical data - Hosting providers may process IP address, user agent, request path, and timestamps to serve the site and protect it from abuse.
- Voluntary contact - If you open an issue or contact the maintainer, the information you provide is handled by the platform you use, such as GitHub or email.
How We Use Your Data
Website data is used only to operate and improve the open-source project:
- Measure documentation and landing-page usage
- Understand performance issues and errors
- Maintain the website and protect it from abuse
We do not sell, share, or use your data for advertising, analytics, training, or any purpose unrelated to operating this website.
Third-Party Services
The website uses these third-party services:
- Vercel - Hosts the website and provides Analytics and Speed Insights. Subject to Vercel's Privacy Policy.
- GitHub - Hosts the source code, issues, and releases. Subject to GitHub's Privacy Statement.
Data Storage & Security
- The website does not store OAuth tokens, calendar data, or Notion content.
- All website traffic uses HTTPS/TLS encryption in transit.
- Analytics and hosting logs are retained according to the relevant provider policies.
Self-Hosted Usage
If you deploy While yourself, your Google Calendar data, Notion data, credentials, and sync metadata stay in the infrastructure you control. This website does not receive that data.
Data Requests
For website privacy questions, contact the maintainer at the email below. Requests about GitHub or Vercel data should be directed to those providers.
