With this system, you can plan public whitnessing in your congregation or city. You can currently create trolleys or routes and allow announcers to participate at any time. For more information on whether this is the right system for you, see Is that for me?
This system is a private project and not an official offer from Jehovah's Witnesses. It is not directly related to jw.org.
The calendar looks great on any device, whether it's a desktop, laptop, tablet or smartphone
In an admin area, the organizer can create contributors
An announcer can be active in several calendars and change them
The website is transmitted SSL-encrypted, making it very secure
Every user must log in, therefore a protected area for personal data
For the days, you can define notes that indicate special circumstances or possibilities
Shifts are assigned to campaigns. For campaigns, you can define whether a shift manager is required.
Guest accounts can be created for special activities. This allows actions to be carried out with other meetings, for example.
The calendar can be set individually in many areas. For example opening times, conduct, rights,…
Contributors are reminded to participate
A feedback form can be completed for each participation. The result can be clearly viewed in the admin area.
Exciting statistics on taxes and assignments
You can create an inventory and thus keep an overview of existing literature.
Clear presentation of vacant and busy appointments
…and therefore on virtually any device — and on the go
Create predefined shifts (actions with trolleys, information stand, …) at any time, which can also remove trolleys from the calendar
You can create templates of shifts and quickly apply them to weeks
Send newsletters to contributors from the admin area.
A small team is constantly working on development. See also Planned features
…so that announcers can exchange information quickly and easily and on a secure channel and coordinators can quickly distribute information.
If volunteers can be found and that makes sense.
PW-TOOLS has been in operation for several years and causes running costs as a result of operation. We have been able to offer the calendar free of charge for a long time - which is now difficult due to the number of meetings taking part.
You can decide whether you want to use your calendar for free or whether you want to contribute. We are happy to offer PW TOOLS meetings free of charge that do not have much funding. If you want, you can make a contribution.
The voluntary contribution is €1 or $1 per month and is processed via Patreon. This requires free access to Patreon, which can also be used to download receipts.
Note: Julian Stierle Web Development as an operator of PW TOOLS has small business status in Germany. The invoice is therefore issued without VAT.
There is already one or the other that has a similar functionality to this system. We are aware of this and would therefore like to provide some information.
The contributor gets a calendar view here. This has a number of consequences.
If you only work with fixed dates or shifts for your meeting or city, this system is probably not for you.
The calendar view makes this system very flexible, as long as the participants can also participate flexibly.
So if you want to combine a free calendar with shifts (as we have planned), this could be something for you…

Some important notes…
No personal data is collected or stored when using this site. When pages are accessed, the web server stores information for technical evaluation. The page visited and the time are saved. No full IP addresses are saved.
This website does not use any external tracking services. Statistics are created on a separate server after it has been approved. The IP address is anonymized (192.168.0.1 becomes 192.168.xxx.xxx, for example) and therefore cannot be assigned to an Internet connection at a later stage. The collection of this data can now be completely deactivated again: Deactivate tracking
By using this calendar, you agree that your data (first name, last name, gender, email address, meeting, language and, if applicable, mobile phone number and landline number) will be stored in the system. This data is never shared with third parties.
The reservation system only stores the data that you enter or that is necessary for the application. This applies to the personal data of the contributors and of yourself. This data is never shared with third parties.
During actions such as reserving a trolley, only data that is useful for the application, such as the time of the action, is stored in the database. Statistical data about your activity can be derived from this. However, this data is only used by the coordinator (s) of your calendar and is not passed on to anyone else. When used, the time and address of the page accessed are saved in order to be able to improve the system with this information. Only anonymized IP addresses are stored (192.168.0.1 becomes 192.168.xxx.xxx, for example). This means that no assignment to an Internet connection can be made retrospectively.
There are no third-party services installed that collect more data. No ads are displayed.
Passwords are encrypted in the reservation system using the latest technology and are therefore not readable by anyone.
Buttons from the micropayment service “Patreon”, which is operated by Patreon, Inc, based in 230 9th St, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA, are integrated into this online offer. When you access pages on this website that contain these buttons, your browser creates a direct connection to Patreon servers. If users have created an account with Patreon with which they are logged in at the same time, Patreon receives the information that users have visited the respective page of this online offering. If users have a Patreon account, are logged in and interact with the button, information about this is transmitted to Patreon and stored there for billing purposes in accordance with the guidelines applicable there. Even if users are not logged in, usage data may be collected and stored. Users can find out exactly how your data is processed when you click the Patreon button at https://www.patreon.com/privacy.
