1. Who We Are

Teamset is an online system that allows people within an organization to collaborate, track and share progress being made on projects they have created or have been tasked with. The system creates a place for project teams to communicate and document where the project work currently stands so that project teams can then make informed decisions with up-to-date information that has been shared. There is a timesheet component to the system that allow effort tracking to take place in conjunction with project collaboration.

We are located in New Brunswick, Canada.

• Data and information, including Personal Data, provided or created by your organization and its licensed users in the course of using the Services (“Customer Data”) is processed in the geographic region where your organization is located.
