Privacy Policy

Effective October 4, 2026 Applies to the ADP Shifts extension, the ADP Schedule Export userscript, and this website

The short version

  • ADP Shifts runs entirely in your browser. There is no ADP Shifts server, account, or database.
  • It reads your own schedule from ADP Workforce Now and writes it to one Google calendar that it creates.
  • It never sees your ADP password and never reads, copies, or stores your ADP cookies.
  • It cannot read or change your other Google calendars.
  • No analytics, no advertising, no selling or sharing of data. The developer never receives your data.

1. Who we are

ADP Shifts is an independent, open-source project published under the MIT License at github.com/thedavidweng/adp-calendar. In this policy, "we" means the project's maintainer. ADP Shifts is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by ADP, Inc. or Google LLC.

2. What the extension does

ADP Shifts has a single purpose: to copy the signed-in employee's work schedule from ADP Workforce Now into a dedicated Google Calendar named "ADP Shifts", and to keep that calendar up to date. Everything described below exists only to provide that feature.

3. Information the extension handles

Information Where it comes from Why Where it is kept
Your schedule: shift dates and times, shift name, department, job, location, pay code, shift status, and employer holidays ADP Workforce Now, using the session already in your browser To create matching events in your ADP Shifts calendar Processed in memory, then written to your own Google account. Not stored by the extension.
Your ADP Position identifier The address of the My Schedule page in Workforce Now To request your schedule, and only yours Local extension storage on your device
A Google OAuth access token and its expiry time Google, after you approve the consent screen To manage the ADP Shifts calendar Local extension storage on your device. Tokens expire after about an hour. No refresh token is requested or stored.
Settings and status: the ID of the ADP Shifts calendar, time zone override, time and counts of the last successful Sync, retry counters, whether a sign-in reminder was shown, setup progress The extension itself To find its own calendar again, schedule Syncs, show status, and avoid repeat notifications Local extension storage on your device

ADP's schedule response also contains your name, employee ID, and login ID. The extension ignores those fields. It does not store, display, or send them anywhere.

Your ADP session cookies are attached to requests to workforcenow.adp.com by the browser itself, exactly as they are when you use the site. The extension never reads, copies, exports, or stores them, and it never asks for or handles your ADP password or multi-factor codes.

4. Google user data

The extension requests one Google permission: https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.app.created. This scope lets an app create secondary calendars and manage only the calendars and events it created. It does not allow access to your primary calendar or to any other calendar in your account.

With that permission the extension:

  • creates one calendar named "ADP Shifts";
  • lists, creates, updates, and deletes events in that calendar so it matches your ADP schedule from today onward;
  • never changes events dated before today.

ADP Shifts' use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Specifically:

  • Google user data is used only to provide and improve the calendar sync feature that is visible in the extension.
  • Google user data is not transferred to anyone, except to Google itself as part of the Calendar API requests that perform the sync.
  • Google user data is never used for advertising, including personalized, retargeted, or interest-based advertising.
  • Google user data is never sold, and is never used to determine credit-worthiness or for lending purposes.
  • No human, including the developer, reads your Google user data. The data never leaves your browser except to go to Google.
  • Google user data is not used to train artificial intelligence or machine learning models.

5. Where data goes

The extension makes network requests only to these services, and only to perform the sync you asked for:

  • workforcenow.adp.com (ADP) to read your schedule;
  • accounts.google.com and oauth2.googleapis.com (Google) to sign in and to revoke access when you disconnect;
  • www.googleapis.com (Google Calendar API) to manage the ADP Shifts calendar.

It contacts no other servers. It contains no analytics, crash reporting, advertising, or tracking code, and it does not load or run code from the internet. Your use of ADP and Google is governed by their own privacy policies.

6. What we never do

  • Collect, receive, or store your data on any server we control. We do not operate one.
  • Sell, rent, or share your data with third parties, data brokers, or advertisers.
  • Use your data for any purpose unrelated to syncing your schedule.
  • Look up the schedule of any employee other than the one signed in.

7. Keeping and deleting your data

  • Disconnect and clear data. In the extension's Settings, this button revokes the Google token with Google and erases everything the extension stored locally.
  • Uninstall. Removing the extension deletes all of its local storage.
  • The ADP Shifts calendar lives in your Google account, so it stays there until you delete it in Google Calendar. You can also revoke the extension's access at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions.

8. Security

Data stays on your device and in your own Google account. Requests use HTTPS. The extension ships with no client secret, requests no long-lived refresh token, and keeps only a short-lived access token in Chrome's extension storage, which other websites cannot read. The full source code is public so anyone can verify these claims.

9. The ADP Schedule Export userscript

The optional userscript works the same way but does not connect to Google. It reads your schedule from ADP using your existing session, builds an .ics file in your browser, and downloads it to your device. It stores only your Position identifier and time zone preference in your userscript manager's storage.

10. This website

This website is a static site hosted by GitHub Pages. It sets no cookies, runs no analytics, and loads no third-party fonts or scripts. GitHub may log technical information such as IP addresses to operate and secure its service, as described in the GitHub General Privacy Statement.

11. Children

ADP Shifts is intended for employees using their employer's ADP account. It is not directed to children under 13.

12. Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new effective date. The full history is available in the project's public repository. If a change would expand how data is used, it will be announced in the extension's release notes before it takes effect.

13. Contact

Questions or requests about privacy can be sent by opening an issue on GitHub. Please do not include personal schedule details in public issues.
