SimplyCast Partners with Valley Chamber of Commerce for Contact Tracing

 SimplyCast, an ISO 27001, 27017, and 27018-certified leader in engagement automation for organizations in over 175 countries, is proud to announce its new partnership with the Valley Chamber of Commerce (VCC) in Grand Falls, New Brunswick. This partnership allows VCC to provide a safe, hands-free, and automated check-in and contact tracing solution to its members.

As a way to give back to the community during the COVID-19 pandemic, SimplyCast is providing members of the VCC with free access to the contact tracing application.

“We are very glad to be able to provide this easy and secure contact tracing app to VCC free of charge,” said SimplyCast President & CEO, Saeed El-Darahali. “The SimplyCast team developed this solution using our existing software products and we are proud to do our part to help against the spread of COVID-19.”

Upon signing up, VCC members will be provided with a pre-built form and associated QR code that can be used to collect contact tracing information from their visitors.

“The Valley Chamber of Commerce is pleased to partner with SimplyCast to introduce this digital solution to support our members’ reopening efforts,” said Gilles Beaulieu, CEO of the Valley Chamber of Commerce. “Bringing simple and effective solutions that can be easily adopted is an important step in preparing our members for growth.”

SimplyCast uses military-grade message encryption and rigorous access control permissions within the solution because SimplyCast knows that privacy is an important consideration for everyone using a contact tracing solution. Only authorized users have access to collected contact data and it will only ever be used for the purpose for which it is intended.
