PRIVACY POLICY
Your number.
Your choice.
Last updated September 30, 2026
Clever Booking is an appointment-opening notification project operated by Marc Smith. This policy explains the information handled through this website, the business-owner apps, and the SMS pilot.
Our current pre-launch website
The SMS signup preview is a demonstration. Entries stay in your browser for the preview interaction and are cleared when you submit or reload it. The preview does not send your number to us, save an enrollment, or send a text. If you email us about the pilot, we receive your email address and the information you choose to include.
Information for the SMS pilot
When enrollment opens, the signup page will identify Clever Booking as the messaging service and the participating business whose openings you choose to hear about. The information needed will include your mobile number, the business you choose, and a record of your consent, including its time and the wording you accepted. We may also process replies, appointment interests, and opt-out requests to operate the service. We will update this policy before introducing new data uses.
How information is used
We use information to answer inquiries, operate requested appointment notifications, manage consent and opt-outs, and protect the service. Hosting and communications providers may process information on our behalf as necessary to provide these services. The planned SMS provider is Twilio. A participating business will receive information needed to manage its own client notifications and appointments.
Business-owner accounts
Business owners sign in using an email address. We use their account identity and business membership to restrict access to the appropriate business. Account authentication and pilot data are hosted with Amazon Web Services. Customers joining appointment alerts do not need an owner account and are not asked to provide a name or email address.
Optional contact names in the owner app
A business owner can choose to let the native app match enrolled clients with contacts already on their device. This is optional and requires the device’s contact permission. Matching happens on the device using complete phone numbers. Contact names and address-book entries are not uploaded to Clever Booking, used to enroll anyone, or treated as permission to send messages. The app keeps matching results in memory and clears them when the owner signs out, disables matching, or contact access is removed. Only the owner’s choice to enable matching is saved locally for that account and business. Without contact access, the app continues to show the business’s labels or masked phone numbers.
No marketing data sales or sharing
We do not sell or share your SMS opt-in data or personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. This includes affiliates and lead generators; we do not share this information for their marketing or promotional purposes. Your consent is for Clever Booking messages about the business you choose. It does not enroll you in another business's alerts or authorize that business to send unrelated marketing.
Message choices
For an active program, message frequency varies with appointment availability and your interactions. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to unsubscribe or HELP for help. SMS consent is optional and is not a condition of purchase.
Hosting and retention
Our hosting providers may process ordinary request information, such as IP addresses and browser details, to deliver and protect the website. This site uses Google Fonts to display its typefaces; your browser makes requests to Google to load those font files. This site does not include advertising trackers or analytics scripts. Inquiry information is kept as needed to respond and manage the pilot. Consent and suppression records may be retained as needed to honor your preferences and applicable requirements.
Questions or deletion requests
Email marc@cleverbooking.co to ask about your information, request correction or deletion, or get help. Some records may need to be retained for compliance or to ensure an opt-out remains in effect.
