5.1. Sharing between Customers and Employees
Once an Employee accepts a service for a Customer, the Customer can receive the employees first name and last initial and the Employee can see the name the Customer provided when booking. During a service the Employee is able to see the Customer’s service address. Before, during or after a Service, Customers should not contact Employees directly but rather contact customer support via call, email or chat. Customers and Employees phone numbers are masked and, only in rare instances, may they be able to see the other’s phone number. There should never be an exchange of personal information between Customer and Employee that is providing onsite service. After a Service, Greenhouse may share feedback or comments that a Customer provided with an Employee, but we will not identify the Customer. We may also share with Employees their aggregate ratings.
