Staffly
Staffly is the internal staff portal that Softonoma's own team uses to run day-to-day operations: attendance and leave, payroll records, hiring, and scheduling interviews with candidates.
It is a private workplace tool rather than a public product. Softonoma creates the accounts for its own employees and contractors, so there is no public sign-up and nothing to buy here.
What Staffly does
Attendance and leave
Staff clock in and out, request annual, casual or unpaid leave, and see their own balances. Managers review and approve from the same place.
Payroll and employment records
Payslips, salary details and employment records, visible only to the people whose role allows it.
Hiring and interviews
Scheduling interviews with candidates and keeping the hiring process organised in one place.
Role-based access
Every screen is gated by role and permission, so people see the parts of the business they are responsible for and nothing else.
Why Staffly asks to connect your Google account
When someone on the team schedules an interview in Staffly, they can have it placed directly on their own Google Calendar with the candidate invited and the interview documents attached. To do that, Staffly asks that person for permission to their Google account. Connecting Google is optional and always started by the user from their own profile page. Staffly works without it.
What each permission is used for
- Google Calendar
- To create the interview event on your own calendar, invite the interview guests, and attach the interview documents to that event.
- Google Drive (files created by Staffly only)
- To upload the interview documents so they can be attached to the calendar invitation. This permission is limited by Google to files Staffly itself creates, so it gives Staffly no access to anything else in your Drive.
- Your name and email address
- To confirm which Google account is connected and show that address back to you, so you can tell which account Staffly is using.
What Staffly does not do
- It does not read, collect or store your existing calendar events or Drive files.
- It does not use Google data for advertising, and never sells it.
- It does not use Google data to train generalised artificial intelligence or machine learning models.
You can disconnect Google at any time from your Staffly profile, or revoke access from your Google Account directly. Our privacy policy has the full detail on what is stored, for how long, and how to have it deleted.
