5. Data Residency and Access Controls
5.1 Where Your Customers’ Data Lives
Plugin clients: your customers’ operational data (orders, contact details, conversation history, product information) lives in your own WordPress installation and is never copied to or stored on our servers. AI conversations and messaging are routed through our platform infrastructure hosted in the European Union. The Plugin sends only aggregate telemetry to our servers (licence state, plugin version, AI usage counts) — no customer data.
Managed Agent clients: your customers’ data (conversations, contacts, campaign data) is stored on our platform infrastructure in the European Union (Hetzner, Germany).
In both cases, our servers additionally store:
Your account configuration
Aggregate telemetry (AI call counts, token usage, cost estimates per month)
Your dashboard user account and session data
5.2 Access Controls
We do not routinely monitor or review your customer conversations. We access your data only for setup, configuration, optimisation, troubleshooting, and at your specific request. All access is logged.
5.3 Telemetry Data
The Plugin sends aggregate usage telemetry to our servers (licence key, site identifier, plugin version, AI call counts and token totals). This telemetry contains no customer personal data — no names, phone numbers, email addresses, order details, or conversation content.
6. Data Retention
| Data Category | Retention Period |
|---|---|
| Active account data | Duration of active subscription |
| Conversation data | 12 months after last activity |
| Financial records | 6 years (per Irish Revenue requirements) |
| Marketing consent records | Until consent withdrawn + 1 year |
| Plugin telemetry (aggregate) | Duration of active subscription + 90 days |
| Backup data | Maximum 90 days after deletion request |
Upon account termination, we delete or anonymise your data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.

13. Chat Widget and AI Agent
Our website, and websites operated by our clients, may use an AI-powered chat widget. This section explains how that widget handles your information.
13.1 You Are Chatting With an AI
The chat widget is operated by an AI assistant, which is disclosed at the start of the conversation. A human can take over the conversation at any time, and you can ask to speak to a person.
13.2 Who Is Responsible for Your Data
On the FrontDesk.ie website, the data controller is Creatizo Media Holdings Limited (CRO 798461). On a client’s own website, that business is the data controller and we act as their data processor.
13.3 How We Use What You Share in Chat
Any details you provide in the chat (such as your name, email, or phone number) are used to respond to your enquiry. We do not add you to any marketing or automated outbound messaging list on the basis of a chat interaction alone.
Before any phone number or email address receives marketing or automated outbound messages, separate explicit consent is required. If that consent is not confirmed, the contact is suppressed and is not messaged.
Your chat messages are processed to answer you and are not used to train AI foundation models. Our AI providers are bound by Data Processing Agreements and may not use your data for their own purposes.
13.4 Stopping Messages and Deleting Your Data
To stop messages or request deletion of anything you shared in the chat, type STOP in the chat or email [email protected]. We action opt-out and deletion requests promptly and permanently exclude the contact from future automated messages.
14. Marketing Communications
We obtain consent before sending marketing communications
Every marketing message includes an unsubscribe option
Service-related communications are sent regardless of marketing preferences
We honour STOP and unsubscribe requests immediately
15. Children’s Privacy
Our Services are designed for business use by adults. We do not knowingly collect data from individuals under 16.
16. Changes to This Policy
