ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The absence of defined maximum retention periods makes it impossible for users to know how long their data will be held, and creates compliance risk under GDPR's storage limitation principle.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Calendly's privacy notice affects both registered users and people who simply click a scheduling link sent by someone else, meaning your name, email, and meeting details can be collected and shared with third-party analytics and advertising vendors even if you never created an account. The notice also discloses that calendar content, including event titles and participant information, is processed to enable scheduling features, which may expose sensitive professional or personal information to Calendly's infrastructure. You can submit a data access, deletion, or opt-out request through Calendly's privacy rights portal at calendly.com/legal/privacy-notice or by contacting privacy@calendly.com.
