2. Data we collect
For the purpose of sending SMS appointment reminders and service notifications, we collect:

3. Purpose of processing
We process this data solely to send SMS appointment reminders, service notifications, and follow-up messages for cleaning and home service bookings. This includes confirmations, completion notices, review requests, and status updates such as "on my way" or rescheduling alerts.
4. Data retention
We retain your personal data for a maximum of 3 years from the date of collection or the last interaction. After this period, data is securely deleted or anonymized.
5. Data sharing
Your data is never sold. We share it only with Twilio Inc. (United States), our SMS delivery processor, under a strict data processor agreement. Twilio may store message content and delivery logs on servers located in the United States, subject to US law.

7. SMS opt-out
You may opt out of SMS messages at any time by replying STOP to any message you receive. Upon receipt of a STOP request, we will unsubscribe your number within 4 hours and send a single confirmation message. No further SMS will be sent unless you opt back in, either by replying START to the same conversation or by booking again with consent.
8. Data security
SMS messages are transmitted using AES-256 encryption in transit. SMS messages are not encrypted at rest due to SMS technology limitations; however, we apply industry-standard access controls, secure authentication, and regular security reviews to protect all stored data.

Eva, operated by Stephane Bacanin Consulting, sends transactional SMS notifications on behalf of cleaning businesses to their customers who have explicitly opted in through a booking form with an unchecked consent checkbox. We do not send marketing or promotional SMS.
Message types: appointment confirmations, reminders, on-my-way notices, completion notices, review requests, and rescheduling alerts.
Message frequency: varies based on appointment activity (typically up to 6 messages per appointment).
Opt-out and help: customers may opt out at any time by replying STOP to any message. For help, reply HELP. Upon a STOP request we unsubscribe the number within 4 hours and send a single confirmation; no further SMS will be sent unless the customer opts back in by replying START or booking again with consent.
Carrier charges:Msg&data rates may apply, depending on the customer's mobile carrier.
No third-party sharing for marketing: mobile phone numbers and SMS message content are not shared with third parties for marketing purposes. The only third party we share SMS data with is Twilio Inc., our SMS delivery processor, under a data processor agreement (see Section 5).
