Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 1, 2025

Your privacy matters to us. Here's a plain-English summary of what we collect, why we collect it, and how we protect it — followed by the full legal details.

1. Introduction

Cally Desk provides AI-powered receptionist, chat, and booking software for small businesses. This policy applies to all users of callydesk.com and the Cally Desk service.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to provide and improve the service, train your AI receptionist, send service notifications, process billing, and provide customer support.

Call recordings and transcripts are encrypted at rest and in transit. Only authorized personnel and you may access them. Default retention is 90 days, after which recordings are automatically deleted unless your plan specifies otherwise.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your data. We share data only with sub-processors required to deliver the service, including Twilio (telephony), Stripe (payments), and Google (calendar integrations). All sub-processors are bound by data processing agreements.

6. Data Security

We use industry-standard encryption (TLS in transit, AES-256 at rest), strict access controls, and follow SOC 2 aligned practices. We continuously monitor for unauthorized access.

7. Your Rights
