May 2, 2018 - Intell-a-Keeper Decomissioning

We are shutting down Intell-a-Keeper on or before May 25, 2018. When Intell-a-Keeper was originally developed it helped our clients determine where their bookings came from so that our clients could make better decisions regarding their marketing. Over the years Google Analytics came on the scene, and has improved in this area and also the reservations systems began supporting e-commerce tracking. In light of these changes, the need for Intell-a-Keeper data has steadlily been diminishing and we have considered decommissioning it for a while now.

In order to be compliant with the privacy regulation regarding the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) from the European Union (EU) the tracking method used in Intell-a-Keeper would now require that visitors be notified their information is being stored and that they would need to approve that storage for Intell-a-Keeper to work. Since this would be a negative experience for web visitors, now is the time to shut down Intell-a-Keeper. All tracking capabilities and historical data will be removed from Intell-a-Keeper on or before May 25, 2018.

Before the end of the year, we will work with you to remove the tracking script from your web site at no charge to you. We will also work with the Reservation companies to have them remove the calls to Intell-a-Keeper. These changes can occur after May 25th since the tracking capability will be disabled. We will not charge the Intell-a-Keeper service fee for the month of May. If you pre-paid for this service, we will contact you regarding a refund.
