Purpose of Information Collection
We collect this information for a variety of purposes:
Plans & Pricing Contact Form: The information from this form is used to facilitate communication with you. We use your email address or phone number (if provided) to respond to your queries or comments.
Business Partnership Form: The information from this form is primarily used to evaluate potential partnerships. The details you provide about your company and your business appointment scheduling needs helps us understand your business and determine the type of plan that fits your business model the best.
Client Appointment Bookings: During the process of arranging appointments with professionals via BookingPortal.org, we collect the names and contact details of users who initiate the booking. The purpose of gathering this information is to efficiently facilitate the booking and scheduling services. It is crucial to understand that any personal data provided by clients to prepare for their appointments is treated as confidential, serving as a direct communication line between the client and the professional utilizing BookingPortal.org for client engagement.
Please note that we use the information you provide to improve our services and your experience on our website. For example, we might use this data to understand where our potential business partners are located, which helps us tailor our services to better meet their needs.
When services are performed in whole or in part by a third-party provider, we may share or transfer the necessary personal data to that provider to ensure a smooth and secure delivery of the appointment service. These third parties are contractually obligated to handle personal information in accordance with applicable privacy laws and for the sole purpose of delivering the requested services.
How We Use Information
We use information to:
Provide and operate the Services (quotes, booking, intake, messaging, notifications)
Coordinate scheduling, provider assignment (where applicable), and service fulfillment
Process payments, send receipts, and provide billing support
Communicate service updates, reminders, and support responses
Maintain service records (including job notes and photo confirmations where used)
Prevent fraud, enforce policies, and protect platform security
Improve our products and customer experience (analytics, troubleshooting, testing)
Comply with legal obligations (tax/accounting where applicable, lawful requests)
Home Services vs Professional Services
Home Services include in-person services performed at a property, such as:
Lawn care / landscaping, snow removal
Residential or commercial cleaning
Junk removal / haul-away
Plumbing
Appliance repair
Similar home/commercial field services
Professional Services may include services delivered remotely or otherwise by third-party professionals (e.g., legal, accounting, coaching, education, medical services where offered by third parties).
BookingPortal.org is a technology platform. The underlying services are performed by independent third-party providers. Those providers may have their own policies and obligations, including licensing, insurance, and compliance.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell your personal information.
We may share information with:
Third-party service providers (the business fulfilling your request) to enable the requested service (e.g., contact details, service address, scope, access notes, scheduling window)
Service partners and vendors who help us operate the Services (hosting, analytics, communications tools, payment processors, security)
Support tools used to manage customer requests, tickets, and communications
Legal/compliance recipients when required by law or to protect rights, safety, and integrity of the Services
When services are performed by third-party providers, we share only what is reasonably necessary to coordinate the booking, payment, scheduling, and support experience.

Third-Party Platforms and Redirects
In some cases, you may be redirected to a third-party provider’s system to complete booking, payment, intake, or service communications. Information you provide directly on those external systems is collected by the third party and governed by their privacy policy. We recommend reviewing third-party policies before submitting information.
Payment Descriptors and Receipts
Depending on how the booking flow is configured, your bank/credit card statement may show:
BOOKINGPORTAL.ORG (or a related descriptor), and/or
A partner/provider descriptor associated with the booked service.
The descriptor is typically shown at checkout and/or in the confirmation message(s). If you are unsure, follow the Help & Billing instructions on the website where you booked or review your confirmation email/SMS.
Data Security Measures
