The owner was unsure if recording calls was legal, avoided recording, and often missed important details from bookings.
With the AI receptionist, calls are recorded only after consent, stored securely, and easily referenced for accuracy.
Yes, but only after obtaining consent from the caller. A brief privacy notice is played at the start of each call, and the call proceeds only if the caller agrees. No call is recorded without explicit permission.
You have full control over retention policies. By default, recordings are stored for 30 days and then automatically deleted. You can adjust this period or enable indefinite storage as needed, and you can delete any recording instantly from the dashboard.
Absolutely. All call data is encrypted in transit using TLS and at rest using AES-256 encryption. Our infrastructure follows industry best practices to ensure data security and prevent unauthorized access.
Yes, you can delete any individual recording or batch of recordings from your dashboard at any time. The deletion is permanent and irreversible, giving you full control over your data.
Our system is designed to align with major privacy regulations such as GDPR and CCPA. We provide features like clear consent recording, data portability, and the right to deletion. However, we recommend consulting with your legal advisor to ensure full compliance for your specific location.
If a client declines recording, the AI will handle the call without recording any audio. Alternatively, you can configure the system to politely inform the client that the call cannot be processed without recording and offer to transfer them to a standard voicemail or inform them of other options.
