Privacy Policy

**Information you provide** - Account and profile details (such as name, email address, password, and role). - Host and property information you enter in the dashboard (property names, addresses, descriptions, photos, pricing, policies, and related content). - Booking and guest information submitted through host property sites (such as guest name, email, phone, stay dates, party size, messages, and agreement signatures). - Communications you send us (for example, lead intake forms, support requests, or email replies). - Billing-related identifiers associated with your subscription (managed through Stripe; we do not store full payment card numbers).

**Information collected automatically** - Device and usage data (such as IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and approximate location derived from IP). - Cookies and similar technologies used for authentication, security, and basic analytics where enabled.

**Information from third parties** - Payment and payout status from Stripe (including subscription status and, for hosts who connect Stripe, Connect account status). - Optional integrations you enable (for example, calendar or pricing services).

We use information to: - Provide, operate, and improve the BookDirectly platform and host tools. - Process host subscriptions and facilitate guest payments through Stripe according to each host's configuration. - Send transactional emails and booking-related text messages (when you consent) via our email and SMS providers. - Authenticate users, prevent fraud and abuse, and enforce our terms. - Respond to inquiries and provide customer support. - Comply with legal obligations and protect our rights.

We may disclose information: - **Service providers** who help us run the platform under contractual obligations to protect data, including: - **Stripe** for subscription billing and guest payment processing. - **Resend** (or similar email providers) for transactional email delivery. - **SMS providers** (such as Twilio) solely to deliver booking-related messages you consented to receive. - **Hosting and database providers** that store application data. - **Hosts and guests** as needed to complete bookings (for example, guest contact details are visible to the host for a submitted booking). - **Legal and safety** when required by law, court order, or to protect rights, safety, and security. - **Business transfers** in connection with a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, subject to appropriate protections.

We do not sell personal information for money. Host property sites may include their own privacy practices for guest-facing pages; those are controlled by the host.

We use administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information, including encryption in transit (HTTPS), access controls for production systems, and restricted access to personal data by personnel who need it for their job. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We retain information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. You may request deletion of certain account data subject to applicable law and legitimate business needs (for example, booking records hosts must retain).

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain processing of your personal information. To make a request, contact us at support@mybookdirectly.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

You can update some account information in the dashboard. Marketing emails, if any, will include an unsubscribe option where required by law.
