Effective Date: March 12, 2026 | Last Updated: March 12, 2026

1. Introduction

Flowlith ("we," "us," or "our") is deeply committed to protecting the privacy, security, and confidentiality of all personal data we process. This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how we collect, use, store, disclose, and protect personal information when you: visit www.flowlith.com; engage with our sales or support team; or use the IRIS AI platform and related services.

This Policy applies to: (a) Clients and their Authorised Users; (b) End-Users whose data is processed through IRIS; (c) Website visitors; (d) Prospective clients and business contacts.

This Policy is designed to comply with: India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 ("DPDP Act"); the Information Technology Act, 2000 ("IT Act"); the IT (Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures and Sensitive Personal Data or Information) Rules, 2011 ("SPDI Rules"); and, to the extent applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 ("GDPR") for EU-based data subjects.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information Provided Directly by Clients

  • Account and registration data: name, company name, email address, phone number, designation, and billing address.
  • Payment information: billing details processed via Stripe, Razorpay, or PayPal. Flowlith does not store full card numbers — payment data is handled by PCI-DSS compliant payment processors.
  • Communications: enquiries, support requests, emails, and feedback submitted to Flowlith.
  • Onboarding data: business workflow information, CRM credentials, integration requirements, and related operational data provided during implementation.

2.2 Information Collected Automatically

  • Usage and log data: IP addresses, browser type, operating system, pages visited, session duration, referral URLs, and access timestamps.
  • Device information: device type, unique identifiers, and network information.
  • Cookie and tracking data: as described in Section 9 below.

2.3 Client Data and End-User Data Processed Through IRIS

  • Voice call recordings, audio files, transcripts, and call metadata generated by IRIS.

  • CRM data synced with Zoho, HubSpot, Salesforce, or other integrated platforms.
  • WhatsApp and messaging interaction data where WhatsApp automation is enabled.

For all End-User data processed through IRIS, Flowlith acts exclusively as a Data Processor. The Client is the Data Fiduciary/Controller. Clients bear full responsibility for having valid legal bases for processing End-User data through the Services.

4. Voice Call Data and Recording

IRIS IS A REAL-TIME VOICE AI AGENT. CALL RECORDINGS AND TRANSCRIPTS CONTAINING PERSONAL DATA ARE PROCESSED AS A CORE FEATURE OF THE SERVICE. THIS SECTION GOVERNS HOW SUCH DATA IS HANDLED.

4.1 What We Process

IRIS processes incoming and outgoing voice calls in real time. Depending on Client configuration, calls may be recorded, transcribed, and stored. Recordings and transcripts may contain names, contact details, financial information, health information, appointment details, and other personal data of End-Users.

4.2 Retention Period — Client-Defined

The retention period for call recordings and transcripts is set by the Client according to their business and legal requirements, and documented in the SOW or Data Processing Agreement. Flowlith will retain recordings only for the period specified by the Client and will delete or return recordings upon the Client's written instruction at the end of the retention period.

4.3 Hosting Options and Data Location

Call recordings and associated data may be hosted: (a) on Flowlith's managed server infrastructure, within an isolated VPS allocated exclusively to the Client — no other Client has access to this environment; or (b) on the Client's own server, if Client-Side Hosting is selected. Clients choosing Client-Side Hosting are responsible for the security and legal compliance of their hosting environment.

4.4 Consent Obligation on Clients

The Client is solely responsible for ensuring all call participants are informed that their calls are being recorded and processed by an AI system, and for obtaining all legally required consents under applicable law. Flowlith provides the recording infrastructure; the legal basis for recording is the Client's responsibility.

5. Data Sharing and Disclosure

Flowlith does not sell, rent, or trade personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. Personal data is disclosed only in the following circumstances:

Sub-processors and Service Providers: We share data with trusted processors who help us operate the Services, including cloud infrastructure providers, payment processors (Stripe, Razorpay, PayPal), CRM platforms (Zoho, HubSpot, Salesforce), and communications tools. All sub-processors are bound by data processing agreements with appropriate security and confidentiality obligations.

Legal Requirements: We may disclose data where required by law, court order, governmental or regulatory authority, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Flowlith, its Clients, or the public.

Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, personal data may be transferred to a successor entity, subject to equivalent privacy protections. Affected parties will be notified as required by law.

With Consent: For any other purpose, only with your explicit prior written consent.

6. Data Security

Flowlith implements robust technical and organisational security measures to protect all personal data against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Our security measures include:

  • End-to-end encryption in transit using TLS/SSL for all data transmissions.
  • Encryption at rest for all stored call recordings, transcripts, and sensitive data.
  • Isolated VPS architecture ensuring complete data segregation between Clients.
  • Role-based access controls limiting internal access to personal data to authorised personnel only.
  • Regular security assessments, vulnerability scans, and penetration testing.
  • Incident response procedures in compliance with DPDP Act and applicable law.

In the event of a personal data breach that poses a significant risk to data subjects, Flowlith will notify affected Clients and the relevant regulatory authority within the timeframe prescribed by applicable law, and will cooperate fully in breach response and remediation.

7. Data Retention

  • Account and contract data: retained for the duration of the relationship and for seven (7) years thereafter for legal and accounting compliance.
  • Call recordings and transcripts: retained as specified by the Client in the SOW. Default: deleted upon Client's written instruction or contract termination.
  • Payment and billing records: retained for eight (8) years as required under Indian financial regulations.
  • Website analytics and server logs: retained for up to twelve (12) months.
  • Support communications: retained for three (3) years.

Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely and permanently deleted or irreversibly anonymised.

10. WhatsApp and Digital Messaging

Where Clients use IRIS for WhatsApp or other digital messaging automation, the processing of End-User messaging data is governed by Meta's WhatsApp Business Policy and applicable provisions of the IT (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021. Flowlith processes messaging data solely on the Client's instruction. The Client is responsible for ensuring their use of messaging automation complies with all applicable platform policies and regulations.

11. International Data Transfers

Flowlith operates primarily in India. Where personal data is transferred to, processed in, or stored in countries outside India — including through sub-processors — Flowlith ensures appropriate safeguards are in place in compliance with DPDP Act provisions on cross-border transfers, including standard contractual clauses or other approved mechanisms.

12. Children's Privacy

The Services are intended for business use by adults aged eighteen (18) and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. Under the DPDP Act 2023, processing of children's data requires verifiable parental consent. If we discover that we have inadvertently collected data from a minor without valid consent, we will delete it promptly. Please contact legal@flowlith.com if you believe such data has been collected.

13. Third-Party Links and Integrations

The Services integrate with third-party platforms (Zoho, HubSpot, Salesforce, Stripe, Razorpay, PayPal, and others). Flowlith is not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties. The Client's use of these integrations is subject to the respective privacy policies and terms of those providers. We encourage you to review them.
