FAQ
Hi, are there plans to include the ability to use your own company email address using your domain name?
Hi – this is something on our roadmap but not in the product yet.
I’m about to refund because I don’t see how Zcal branding can be removed from email scheduling confirmations. Is this possible?
Hi – this is something we are prioritizing on our feature map, currently it isn’t possible.
Do you plan to be fully GDPR compliant this year?
We follow all industry best practices when it comes to data privacy, storage, and transmission, however, we haven’t gotten any official certifications yet.
Is there a way to make the picture responsive?
Hi – when uploading a photo you can select the “focal point” of the photo. This is where the photo will be centered around for every screen size. We are looking into a fix for the description issue.
Which is the cost of an extra user?
Hi – each additional user past the amount purchased in the TLD will be priced at our normal subscription pricing.

Yes, just like jsheldon mentioned, you can create multiple different calendar links to share out. Each can have its own availability setting and be embedded separately from each other.
