Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2026

Plain-English Summary

GatherTasks is designed to keep event and volunteer coordination straightforward. Public sign-up boards are intended to stay ad-free, and organizers control whether guest email is optional, required, or not needed at all for a given board.

Information We Collect

GatherTasks collects minimal information to provide our service:

  • Account Information: Email address and name when you sign up.
  • Board Data: Content you create in your task boards, including titles, descriptions, and task details.
  • Guest Data: Name and optional email provided by guests when they sign up for tasks, based on the settings chosen by the board owner.
  • Service Diagnostics: Minimal technical information needed to operate, secure, and troubleshoot the service.

How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

  • Provide and maintain our service.
  • Send you important updates about your account and boards.
  • Deliver optional notifications or reminders when a board is configured to send them.
  • Investigate abuse, bugs, or service reliability issues.
  • Provide customer support.

Optional Product Research

You can separately choose whether GatherTasks may email you for product research. This permission is off by default and is not required to use the service. If you opt in, we may send one feedback request and at most one follow-up. You can withdraw permission at any time in Account Settings or by replying to a research message.

Research permission is separate from essential account messages and any board notifications or reminders you configure. Guest contact details collected for a task signup are never used for GatherTasks product research.

Information Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. Guest names may be visible on the board so participants can see who claimed a task. Guest email addresses are not displayed publicly on the board and remain available to the board owner for coordination when collected.

User-Generated Templates

Our service allows you to save boards as templates for reuse. Please be aware of the following:

  • Templates store the structure of your board (title, description, settings, and task names/descriptions) but do not include any personal guest sign-up data.
  • If you are on our Free plan, any templates you create will be made public and available in our public template gallery for other users to see and use.
  • If you are on a paid plan (Pro or Business), you have the option to save your templates as private, making them visible only to you.

Data Security

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

Ads, Tracking, and Cookies

GatherTasks does not use third-party advertising on public sign-up boards. We use essential cookies and storage needed to keep the app working, such as maintaining login state and remembering access to password-protected boards during a session.

If our privacy or analytics practices change in a material way, this policy will be updated before those changes are rolled out.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access your personal data
  • Correct inaccurate data
  • Delete your account and data
  • Export your data
