This Privacy Statement describes how Sling, Inc. (a Toast company) and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively “Sling”, “we”, “us” and/or “our”) collects and manages your personal information (i.e., any information that relates to an identified or identifiable individual) as part of providing our Services (defined below).
We may amend this Privacy Statement from time to time in line with the Changes to this Privacy Statement section below.
To see our California Privacy Statement, please click the link or scroll down.
- Scope
Sling’s Privacy Statement describes how we manage the collection, usage, storage, and disclosure of personal information. We use your personal information differently depending on how you interact with the Services or with Sling. This Privacy Statement primarily covers the following relationships:
- Account Holder: You sign up to use, or manage the Sling Services on behalf of an organization or a company.
- Application User: You use the Sling Services. Your organization or company signs up for the Services and invites you to become a user, and/ or you access the Sling application via our Website (www.getsling.com), through our mobile application, via Devices, or via other means (during and after which you are known as an “Application User”).
- Website User: You visit Sling’s website (www.getsling.com) (the “Website”) while browsing the internet (during and after which you are known as a “Website User”), although you may not have necessarily procured or plan to procure an account of any kind with Sling. Sling collects a limited amount of data from our Website Users. For more information, please see our Cookie Policy.
Please note certain locations where we operate have laws that require us to share specific privacy information and practices with individuals in those locations. As a result, this Privacy Statement consists of two sections – a generally applicable statement and a location-specific addendum. Where there are variations for a specific location or additional information is required to be provided under the applicable country or state law, individuals in that location can refer to the applicable addendum. Links to the pertinent sections, can be found below:
- United States (California)
- United States (Colorado)
- United States (Connecticut)
- United States (Virginia)
- United States (Utah)
- Canada
- European Union/European Economic Area
- United Kingdom
Please note our Account Holders are independent third parties who maintain their own business practices and policies outside of their relationship with Sling and their use of the Services. As a result, unless provided otherwise in this Statement, we are not responsible for the privacy policies or data practices of our Account Holders. If you are an Application User, your employer is responsible for providing any additional required notices or information to you regarding its privacy practices outside of this Statement.
By using the Services and/or providing us with your personal information, you acknowledge that your personal information will be processed and used in the manner set out in this Privacy Statement.

6. How Sling communicates with you
As part of providing the Services, Sling (whether directly or through a third-party service provider), may send You various communications related to the Services.
The specific nature of the communications may vary depending on Your role as well as what specific services or requests you have made. These communications include:
- Marketing communications: If you are an Account Holder or an Application User with a manager account, we may send you marketing and other promotional communications for new or existing Services that we think you might be interested in.
- These marketing communications may be sent via email or may include marketing text messages if you have opted in to receive them.
- You can opt out of or unsubscribe from any marketing communications by following the instructions in those messages, by changing your communications preferences within your account or through your device. You can also opt out by contacting help@getsling.com. Opting out of one communication will not necessarily opt you out of all marketing communications.
- Please note that you may still receive certain non-marketing communications after opting out. If you are located outside the United States, we will not send you direct marketing communications without your opt-in consent or as otherwise permitted under the applicable law.
- Service-related communications: As part of your interaction with our Services, you may receive various non-marketing communications from Sling that may be sent via email or text message.

7. How long does Sling keep your personal information?
Sling retains personal information as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Services, carry out the purposes described in this Statement, or as otherwise required in order to comply with our records retention periods (which reflect the applicable law). For example, we may retain information about users of our Services in order to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations or to protect our interests as part of providing the Services.
In the majority of cases, Sling processes the personal information of Application Users as a processor on behalf of the Account Holder. As a result, Sling’s retention of the Account Holder’s employment-related information will be governed by the terms of the agreement between Sling and the Account Holder. Such information may also be managed independently by the Account Holder as part of its own obligations as part of managing its business. Sling maintains a retention schedule for the removal of this information following the termination of any such agreement with the Account Holder.
8. Securing your information
Sling will take appropriate steps to protect any personal information that we collect and store from unauthorized access, misuse, loss, and destruction by employing administrative, technical, and physical security measures. However, even though we have taken such measures to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee that the collection, transmission and storage of personal information will always be completely secure.
9. Your rights with regard to your personal information
Overview
Depending on your location, you may have specific individual rights under the applicable law in relation to how we process your personal information. These individual rights may include a right of deletion, access, correction, portability as well as rights in relation to various processing restrictions (e.g., sale, sharing and targeted advertising). Additional information on these rights and how to invoke them can be found below, as well as in our location-specific addendums linked in this Statement.
Applicability

If you are an Application User and would like to make a request relating to our use of your personal information in a context outside of the Services we provide to your company or organization, or if you are a Website User, please contact us directly with your request.
How to invoke your rights
Sling has established an individual rights portal as well as other channels for the purposes of submitting the individual rights requests above, including the right of access and deletion.

This may include your name, email address, phone number or other details related to your use of Sling’s Services. Where applicable, these requests can be submitted by an authorized agent through the channels described above in accordance with the applicable law.

In order to verify the authorized agent’s authority, we generally require evidence of either (i) a valid power of attorney or (ii) a signed letter containing your name and contact information, the name and contact information of the authorized agent, and a statement of authorization for the request. Depending on the evidence provided, we may still need to separately reach out to you to confirm the authorized agent has permission to act on your behalf and to verify your identity in connection with the request.

10. Cookies and other tracking technologies
Sling uses “cookies,” or small data files stored on your computer and related tracking technologies as part of our business operations. We do so to gather information and improve our Services. Sling may use “persistent cookies” to allow users to save their user IDs and passwords for ease of future logins. Sling may use “session ID cookies” to enable features of the Services, gain an understanding of how users interact with the Services, and to monitor usage and web traffic on the Services. We may track usage patterns on our Website via internal and external analytic platforms (“online tracking”). We do so in order to improve the design and functionality of our Services and Website.
You may program your browser to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you to opt in to cookies from websites you frequent. When you do not accept cookies, you may limit the usability of the Service. You can manage your cookie settings by visiting the cookie preference center by clicking here. There are also other ways to control and/or reject the setting of cookies and similar technologies within your browser settings. As each browser is different, please consult the “help” menu within your browser. For additional information about cookies and how to control their use on various browsers and devices, you can visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org. Please be aware that depending on the Services being used, restricting cookies may prevent you from accessing and using all or part of the Services.
For more information, please visit the Sling Cookie Policy.
There are other tracking technologies, such as web beacons/GIFs, pixels, page tags, embedded scripts, that consist of small transparent image files or other web programming code that record how you interact with websites, mobile applications and services. They are often used in conjunction with web browser cookies or other identifiers associated with your device. We also use pixels and related technologies as part of session replay services on certain Websites that are used to understand and improve functionality and an individual’s experience on those sites.
Targeted advertising and your choices
In certain cases, we allow third-party advertising partners to use cookies, web beacons and other tracking technologies on our Websites, mobile applications and within our Services to collect information about you and your activities for interest-based advertising or other targeted content. The information they collect may be associated with your personal information or they may collect information, including personal information, about your online activities over time and across different websites and other online services. This information may be shared with ad networks and other content providers.
If you want to opt out of receiving online interest-based advertisements on your internet browser, please visit and follow the instructions at www.aboutads.info/choices, or http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ to place an opt-out cookie on your device indicating that you do not want to receive interest-based advertisements. Opt-out cookies only work on the specific internet browser and device that they are downloaded onto. If you want to opt out of interest-based advertisements across all your browsers and devices, you will need to opt out on each browser on each device you actively use. If you delete cookies on your device generally, you will need to set the opt-out cookie again on that device. If you want to opt out of receiving online interest-based advertisements on mobile applications, please follow the instructions at http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices or by visiting the settings in your mobile device.
Please note that when you opt out of receiving interest-based advertisements, this does not mean you will no longer see advertisements from us or on our online services. It means that the online ads that you do see should not be tailored to your interests. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third-parties’ opt-out options or programs or the accuracy of their statements regarding their programs. In addition, third parties may still use cookies to collect information about your use of our online services, including for analytics and fraud prevention purposes.
Do not track
We may use, and we may allow third-party service providers and other third parties to use, cookies or other technologies on our Services that collect information about your browsing activities over time and across different websites following your use of the Services. Do Not Track (“DNT”) is an optional browser setting that allows you to express your preferences regarding tracking across websites. Outside of certain opt-out preference settings within the browser used to access our Websites such as the Global Privacy Control noted in the state-specific addendums, we currently do not respond to DNT signals and we may continue to collect information in the manner described in this Privacy Statement from web browsers that have enabled DNT signals or similar mechanisms.
11. Links to other websites
This Privacy Statement only applies to information collected when visiting our Website or otherwise using our Services. While visiting our Website or using the Services, you and/ or your personal information may be directed to third-party websites or services that are not operated or controlled by us, for example, the websites of our Account Holders or their business partners that provide other services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices and policies of these third parties. As a result, we encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third-party websites as their practices may differ from ours.
12. Children
Our Services are not targeted or directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not intend to, or knowingly, collect or solicit personal information from children under the age of 13. If you have reason to believe that a child under the age of 13 has provided personal information to us, we encourage the child’s parent or guardian to contact us as described in the “How to Contact Us” section of this Statement to request that we remove the information from our systems. If we learn that any personal information we collected has been provided by a child under the age of 13, we will promptly delete that personal information.

B. Categories of personal information sold or shared
While Sling does not “sell” personal information in the traditional sense, we do, however, sell or share personal information for the purpose of displaying advertisements that are selected based on personal information obtained or inferred over time from an individual’s activities across businesses or distinctly-branded websites, applications or other services (otherwise known as “targeted advertising” or “cross-context behavioral advertising”), for personalization features and for tracking and analytics purposes.
The categories of personal information impacted in the preceding 12 months may include:
- Identifiers;
- Internet/Network Information; and
- Inferences.
Each of the above categories of information may be disclosed to third-parties, which may include our business partners depending on the nature of a user’s interactions.
Consumers can exercise their right to opt out of these sales or sharing through our cookie management tool that can be accessed by clicking on our “Do not sell or share my personal information” link at the bottom of https://getsling.com. You can also opt out of the “sale” of personal information or “sharing” for targeted advertising purposes by enabling the Global Privacy Control or a similar opt-out preference setting within the browser you use to access our Websites. Please note that your opt out will be specific to the device and browser you use when you opt out, and our Websites will recognize opt-out preference settings only on domains of our Websites where any “selling” or “sharing” occurs. You may also review our Privacy Statement section titled “Cookies and other tracking technologies” for more information on how Sling uses cookies, analytics and personalized advertising. Sling has no actual knowledge that the “sales” or “sharing” described above include the personal information of individuals under 16 years of age.
C. Description of rights available to Consumers
If you are a resident of the state of California and subject to certain legal limitations and exceptions, you may be able to exercise some or all of the following rights:
- The right to know/access: you have the right to request that an in-scope business that collects personal information from you, disclose the following in relation to the preceding 12 month period, upon verification of your identity: (i) the categories of personal information collected about you, (ii) the categories of sources where the personal information was collected, (iii) the business or commercial purposes for collecting (or where applicable, selling or sharing) the personal information, (iv) the categories of personal information that we have disclosed to third parties for a business purpose along with the corresponding recipients, (v) the categories of personal information we have sold or shared along with the corresponding recipients, and (vi) the specific pieces of personal information collected about you.
- The right of deletion: you have the right to request that an in-scope business delete personal information that it has collected from you, subject to certain exceptions.
- The right of correction: you have the right to request that an in-scope business correct inaccurate personal information, subject to certain conditions.
- The right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information: you have the right to request that an in-scope business refrain from selling or sharing personal information it has collected about you to third parties now or in the future. If you are under the age of 16, you have the right to opt in, or to have a parent or guardian opt in on your behalf, to such sales or sharing.
- The right to limit the use and disclosure of sensitive personal information: to the extent that we use sensitive personal information for purposes beyond those set forth in subdivision (a) of Section 1798.121, you have the right to limit the use or disclosure of that sensitive personal information subject to the exceptions within the CCPA.
- The right of access to and to the ability to opt-out of automated decision-making technology: subject to further regulations being issued, you have the right to access information pertaining to automated decision-making technologies and the ability to opt out.
- The right against discrimination and retaliation: you have the right to not be discriminated or retaliated against as a result of exercising any of the above rights.
However, please note that if the exercise of these rights limits our ability to process personal information (such as in the case of a deletion request), we may no longer be able to provide you with our Services or engage with you in the same manner. In addition, the exercise of the rights described above may result in a different price, rate, or quality level of product or service where that difference is reasonably related to the impact the right has on our relationship or is otherwise permitted by law.
Please note that your ability to invoke the rights above are limited pursuant to the scope and limitations of the CCPA, including any available exceptions. For example, an access request can only be made twice by a Consumer within a 12-month period.
D. How to invoke your rights
Sling has established an individual rights portal as well as other channels for the purposes of submitting the individual rights requests above, including the right of access and deletion. Individual rights requests can be submitted to Sling through the below channels:
- Web portal: Individual Rights Portal
- By email: privacy@getsling.com
- By post:
Attn: Toast Privacy Office
Toast, Inc.
333 Summer Street Boston, MA 02210 - By phone (toll-free): (866) 226-4484
Once an individual rights request has been submitted, Sling may ask you for additional information in order to verify your identity or to provide additional details to help us respond to your request. This may include your name, email address, phone number or other details related to your use of Sling’s Services. Where applicable, these requests can be submitted by an authorized agent through the channels described above in accordance with the applicable law. In these instances, we will take steps to verify the authorized agent’s authority to act on your behalf. In order to verify the authorized agent’s authority, we generally require evidence of either (i) a valid power of attorney or (ii) a signed letter containing your name and contact information, the name and contact information of the authorized agent, and a statement of authorization for the request. Depending on the evidence provided, we may still need to separately reach out to you to confirm the authorized agent has permission to act on your behalf and to verify your identity in connection with the request. Please note that in certain circumstances, we may refuse to act or impose limitations on your rights, as permitted by the applicable law in relation to individual rights submissions.
E. To Exercise the Right to Opt Out of the Selling or Sharing of Personal Information
Unless you have exercised your right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, we may “sell” or “share” your personal data to third parties for targeted or cross-context behavioral advertising purposes, for personalization features and for tracking and analytics purposes. The third parties to whom we sell or share personal information may use such information for their own purposes in accordance with their own privacy statements. In these instances, the right to opt out of the sale of personal information can be invoked through our cookie management tool that can be accessed by clicking on our “Do not sell or share my personal information” link at the bottom of https://getsling.com. You can also opt out of the “sale” of personal information or “sharing” for targeted advertising purposes by enabling the Global Privacy Control or a similar opt-out preference setting within the browser you use to access our Websites. Please note that your opt out will be specific to the device and browser you use when you opt out, and our Websites will recognize opt-out preference settings only on domains of our Websites where any “selling” or “sharing” occurs. Although Sling does not currently engage in other practices at this time that may constitute a “sale” or “sharing” beyond these instances and the methods above are the most effective methods to manage your preferences, you may also submit your right to opt out of any sales or sharing by clicking here or in instances where you would like additional support. You do not need to create an account with us to exercise your right to opt out of personal information sales or sharing. However, if applicable, we may ask you to provide additional personal information so that we can properly identify you in our dataset and to track compliance with your opt out request. We will only use personal information provided in an opt out request to review and comply with the request. If you choose not to provide this information, we may only be able to process your request to the extent we are able to identify you in our systems. Once you make an opt-out request, you may change your mind and opt back in to future personal information sales at any time by contacting us at privacy@getsling.com or by managing your preferences within the cookie management tool.
F. Accessibility
In the event you are a user with a disability, or are supporting an individual with a disability, and are having difficulty navigating this Statement or the information linked within this Statement, please contact us at privacy@getsling.com for support.
G. Sensitive Personal Information
As part of our services, Sling collects “sensitive personal information” as defined by the CCPA as part of our operations and the Services offered to our Account Holders. The categories of sensitive personal information are described below along with the use case and whether the information is sold or shared.
Category of sensitive personal information | Use/Purpose | Is the sensitive personal information sold? | Is the sensitive personal information shared? |
Account log-in details plus password or credentials |
| No | No |
Precise geolocation |
| No | No |
Presently, Sling does not use or disclose an individual’s sensitive personal information for purposes other than those specified in subdivision (a) of section 1798.121 of the CCPA and as a result, has not included a Notice of Right to Limit.
H. Retention
We retain personal information as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Services and carry out the purposes described in this Statement. However, if necessary, we may retain personal information for longer periods of time, until set retention periods and deadlines expire, or for instances where we are required to do so in accordance with legal, tax and accounting requirements set by a legislature, regulator or other government authority.
To determine the appropriate duration of the retention of personal information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of personal information and if we can attain our objectives by other means, as well as our legal, regulatory, tax, accounting and other applicable obligations.
The retention period will vary depending on our relationship. For example,
- For Account Holders, we will generally retain their personal information for the duration of our agreement with the Account Holder plus a period following termination as provided for in our retention schedules.
- For Application Users, Sling will generally maintain Application User accounts that are required to access an Application Holder’s account page for the duration of the individual’s use of Services plus a period of inactivity. Application Users are also permitted to remove these user accounts on an ad hoc basis when relevant (e.g., the individual is no longer part of an Account Holder’s organization).
In all cases, the retention will be subject to any additional legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other applicable obligations.
Once retention of the personal information is no longer necessary for the purposes outlined above, we will either delete or de-identify the personal information or, if this is not possible (for example, because personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store the personal information and isolate it from further processing until deletion or deidentification is possible.
I. Notice of Financial Incentives
Neither Sling nor the Services contemplate any program or service involving financial incentives or requiring notification of a financial incentive. This Statement does not take into account any obligations imposed on the independent businesses of our Account Holders based on their operations.
J. Deidentified information
We may at times receive, or process personal information to create, deidentified information that can no longer reasonably be used to infer information about, or otherwise be linked to, a particular individual or household. Where we maintain deidentified information, we will maintain and use the information in deidentified form and not attempt to reidentify the information except as required or permitted by law.
K. Updates to this Statement
We will update this Statement from time to time. When we make changes to this Statement, we will change the “Last updated” date at the beginning of this Statement. All changes shall be effective from the date of publication unless otherwise provided in the notification.
2. California “Shine the Light” disclosure
As applicable to Sling and our Services, California residents that have an established business relationship with us have a right to know how their information is disclosed to third parties for their direct marketing purposes under California’s “Shine the Light” law (Civ. Code § 1798.83). Please contact us through any of the communication channels within the “How to contact us” section in the main body of this Statement to invoke these rights.
Addendum B – United States (Colorado)
Last updated: May 1, 2024
A. Privacy Statement for Colorado residents as required by the Colorado Privacy Act (“CPA”).

This Colorado-specific Statement provides additional information about how we collect, use, disclose and otherwise process the personal information of these individuals, either online or offline, within the scope of the CPA. Any terms defined in the CPA or as otherwise defined in our Privacy Statement have the same meaning as used in this Addendum.

Sling is committed to collecting, using, and disclosing your personal information in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
B. Consent
By using our Services and accessing our Website, you accept the terms of this privacy addendum and consent to the collection, use, processing, disclosure and retention of your information as described in this Privacy Statement. Typically, we will provide notice of the purpose for collecting your personal information and/or seek your consent (which may be express or implied, depending on the nature and sensitivity of the personal information) in line with applicable law at the time that we collect your personal information. In certain circumstances, we may collect non-sensitive personal information automatically. In general, you may change or withdraw your consent at any time subject to legal or contractual obligations and providing reasonable notice.

Upon receiving notice that you would like to withdraw your consent, we will inform you of the likely consequences of your withdrawal of consent.

Subject to the applicable law and the nature of your relationship with Sling, this may include a right to review, correct, update, suppress, delete or otherwise limit our use of your personal information that has been previously provided to us. You may also have the right to access information about the ways in which your personal information is or has been used and the names of individuals and/or organizations to which your information has been disclosed.

D. Choice and access
You have additional rights regarding how your personal information is processed, including the right to:
- request access to and obtain a copy of your personal information;
- request the transfer of your personal information you have provided to us to you or another company in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format;
- request rectification of your personal information when it is inaccurate or incomplete;
- request erasure of your personal information where permitted under the applicable law, such as where the information is no longer necessary or lawful for us to store or where your information is outdated;
- restrict or object to the processing of your personal information (as applicable), including to object to the processing of personal information for direct marketing purposes; and
- withdraw your consent at any time where this is the legal basis on which we are processing your personal information. If you ask to withdraw your consent, this will not affect any processing which has already taken place at that time.
- Please note that if you choose to withdraw your consent, you may not be able to participate in or benefit from the programs, services and initiatives for which you provided consent to the processing of your personal information. Your rights will in each case be subject to the restrictions set out in applicable data protection laws.
You may exercise these rights free of charge by submitting your request here or to privacy@getsling.com. Where Sling is the data processor and the Account Holder is the data controller in respect of your personal information, you may be required to submit your request directly with the Account Holder in accordance with applicable law or alternatively Sling may require approval from the Account Holder as controller prior to proceeding with your request, in accordance with applicable law. Subject to the applicable law, Sling may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act on a request if it is manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of its repetitive character. In some situations, Sling may refuse to act or impose limitations on the information disclosed if, for instance, if fulfilling your request would reveal personal information about another person, or if you ask us to delete information which we are required by law or have compelling legitimate interests to keep.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint about our processing of your personal information with a Supervisory Authority in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement as defined in Section I below.
E. Retention
We will retain your personal information for only as long as needed for the purpose of the processing activity or where we have a legitimate business need to retain it, subject to our legal and regulatory obligations to retain it longer and our applicable records retention periods. The duration of these periods will vary depending on your relationship with Sling and the Service you are using. For example,
- Account Holders: Account Holder account and ownership information will generally be maintained for seven (7) years following the termination of the relationship absent a legal or regulatory obligation to retain longer;
- Application Users: Application User is maintained pursuant to the retention schedule of the Application Holder or alternatively, seven (7) years following the termination of the relationship absent a legal or regulatory obligation to retain longer. Application Users may request that their Sling accounts used to access the platform and the Services be removed on an ad hoc basis.
Other periods are set out within Sling’s records retention policy and schedule. Our retention periods are also subject to any rights of individuals or other requirements that might dictate a shorter retention period (e.g., deletion requests). In certain cases, Sling may also maintain information for a longer period of time, such as in cases where the information is subject to a legal claim or complaint. Following those periods and other determinations on the duration of the processing of personal information by Sling, we will delete or take measures to anonymize your personal information.
