How eg2 collects, uses, and protects personal data.
eg2 ("we", “us”) is operated by Efrat Galanti, a sole trader registered in Israel, business ID 056655061. This policy explains what personal data we handle, why, and what rights you have.
Questions or requests: [email protected].
eg2 turns a spreadsheet you already own into a private portal your own customers can log into. That creates two distinct relationships, and your rights differ depending on which applies to you.
When you are our customer (a portal administrator), we play two roles at once, and it matters which data we mean:
When you are an end user of someone’s portal (a “portal contact”) — we are only a data processor. The business that created the portal is the controller: they chose what to put in their spreadsheet, and they decide who may see it. We process that data solely on their instructions. If you want your data corrected or deleted, contact that business directly — we cannot make those decisions for them. If you reach us instead, we will forward your request to them.
Effectively nothing. The eg2 marketing website sets no cookies and runs no analytics, advertising, or tracking scripts of any kind. If you use the contact form, we receive what you type into it.
| Purpose | Legal basis (GDPR Art. 6) |
|---|---|
| Providing the service and maintaining your account | Performance of a contract |
| Sending one-time passcodes | Performance of a contract |
| Security, fraud prevention, abuse investigation | Legitimate interests |
| Keeping activity records for troubleshooting | Legitimate interests |
| Billing and statutory bookkeeping | Legal obligation |
| Responding to your enquiries | Legitimate interests |
Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have weighed them against your rights and concluded they do not override your interests. You may object at any time — see §8.
When you connect a spreadsheet, you authorise eg2 through Google’s own consent screen using the drive.file scope. This is deliberately the narrowest scope Google offers for this purpose.
Concretely, this means:
eg2’s use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
We keep the list of third parties deliberately short:
| Provider | Purpose | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Google LLC | Reading connected Drive/Sheets files; change notifications | EU / US |
| Our email (SMTP) provider | Delivering sign-in codes and service email | EU / US |
| 019 SMS (019sms.co.il) | Delivering sign-in codes by SMS | Israel |
| Lemon Squeezy | Payment processing as merchant of record | US |
| Our hosting provider | Running the servers and database | See §7 |
Payments are handled entirely by Lemon Squeezy, who act as merchant of record. We never receive or store your card details.
Israel has an adequacy decision from the European Commission, so personal data may flow from the EEA to Israel without additional safeguards. Where a provider processes data outside Israel or the EEA, that transfer relies on Standard Contractual Clauses or an equivalent recognised mechanism.
| Data | Retention |
|---|---|
| One-time passcode records | 90 days |
| Activity and access records | 12 months |
| Portal data and synced spreadsheet content | Deleted within 30 days of account closure or portal deletion |
| Account and billing records | Duration of the account, then as tax law requires (7 years in Israel) |
Deleting a portal removes its synced data. Note that deleting data from eg2 does not touch your original Google spreadsheet, which remains entirely yours.
If you are in the EEA or UK, you have the right to access your data, correct it, erase it, restrict or object to processing, port it to another provider, and withdraw consent where processing relies on consent. Israeli law grants comparable rights of review and correction.
Exercise any of these by emailing [email protected]. We respond within 30 days. There is no charge unless a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.
Remember the distinction in §1: if you are a portal contact, we will pass your request to the business that runs the portal, because only they can act on it.
You may also complain to a supervisory authority — the Israeli Privacy Protection Authority, or your local EEA/UK data protection authority.
Access to portal data requires a one-time passcode sent to an email address or phone number already present in the administrator’s spreadsheet. Each portal’s synced data is stored in its own isolated database. Traffic is encrypted in transit with TLS.
No system is perfectly secure, and we will not claim otherwise. If a breach affects your personal data and poses a risk to your rights, we will notify you and the relevant authority without undue delay, as required by law.
eg2 is a business tool and is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect their data. If an administrator publishes a spreadsheet containing children’s data, that is their responsibility as controller.
We may update this policy. Material changes will be announced by email to administrators at least 14 days before taking effect. The date at the top always reflects the current version.
This policy is published in several languages for convenience. In the event of any conflict, the English version governs.
