Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 2026

At Reservly, we take your privacy seriously. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we keep it safe. We've written this in plain English because legal jargon helps no one.

What We Collect

We only collect information we need to run our service:

  • Business info: Your business name, email address, and phone number
  • Customer data: Names, phone numbers, and booking details your customers provide
  • Usage data: How you use our app (pages visited, features used)
  • Payment info: We don't store your card details - our payment processor (PayFast) handles that

How We Use Your Data

We use your information to:

  • Provide our booking management service
  • Send booking confirmations and reminders to your customers
  • Process payments and manage your subscription
  • Improve our service and fix bugs
  • Contact you about important updates or security issues

WhatsApp Integration

When you connect WhatsApp Business, we access your WhatsApp messages only to:

  • Read booking requests from your customers
  • Send booking confirmations and reminders
  • Respond to common questions using your configured FAQs

We don't read personal messages, access your contacts, or message people who haven't contacted your business first.

Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored securely on servers in South Africa and Europe. We use industry-standard encryption (SSL/TLS) to protect data in transit and at rest. Access is restricted to authorised staff only.

While we do our best to keep your data safe, no system is 100% secure. By using our service, you acknowledge this risk.

Your Rights

You can:

  • Access your data anytime through your dashboard
  • Request a copy of all your data
  • Ask us to delete your account and data (with 30 days notice for billing records)
  • Update your information in your account settings

Third Parties

We work with trusted partners:

  • PayFast: For payment processing
  • WhatsApp/Meta: For message delivery
  • Vercel: For hosting our application
  • Neon: For database hosting

We don't sell your data to anyone. Ever.

Cookies

We use cookies to keep you logged in and remember your preferences. No tracking cookies for advertising.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as our service evolves. We'll notify you of significant changes via email or through the app.
