GDPR & Data Security

Last update: 2026-02-24
This page describes how aReception.ai protects customer data and supports GDPR compliance. It is intended for IT, Security and Compliance stakeholders evaluating or deploying aReception.ai.

1) Roles & GDPR responsibility model

Within the aReception.ai service:
  • Customer is the Data Controller (defines purpose and means of processing).
  • aReception.ai is the Data Processor (processes data on behalf of the customer).
  • Customers retain control over their data and can manage it via the admin interface.

2) Data hosting & location

  • aReception.ai runs on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
  • Employee contact details (used for calling/notifications) are stored in our cloud application on Google servers in the EU, specifically Belgium.
  • We do not operate our own servers; infrastructure security and hardening is provided by Googleโ€™s security stack.

3) Data protection (encryption & segregation)

  • Encryption at rest: AES-256
  • Encryption in transit: TLS 1.2+
  • Customer data is logically separated and access-controlled.
  • No unencrypted data is transmitted or stored.

4) Identity, authentication & access control

  • Access to data is restricted to authorized users through an Identity & Access Management approach.
  • Authentication is handled via Google Cloud Identity Platform.
  • Login is performed using a one-time login link sent to the userโ€™s email (no static password required).

5) Audio/video and camera data

  • aReception.ai does not store audio, video, or image recordings from the camera.
  • Only an anonymous transcript of spoken interaction can be stored in the client chatbot for quality review and improvement; it is not associated with an individual.

6) Calling employees / telephony privacy

When the digital receptionist (avatar) calls an employee:
  • Only the phone number is used.
  • No other personal data is transmitted to the external telephony service.
  • No link between name and phone number is created within the telephony provider context.

7) Chatbots and scenario tooling (EU hosting)

For chatbot scenarios and low-code configuration we use Coworkers/Daktela, hosted within data centers in the European Union.

8) Use of AI providers (OpenAI, Google Gemini)

8.1 OpenAI API

  • We use the OpenAI API (/v1/chat/completions) for real-time text processing only.
  • We do not send personal data to OpenAI (data is anonymized/pseudonymized where applicable).
  • We do not allow model training on our data and requests are not persistently stored (processed and then deleted).
  • All communication with OpenAI is encrypted and OpenAI does not use submitted data to train or improve models (per our configuration and data controls).

8.2 Google Gemini API (fallback)

  • If OpenAI services are unavailable, we may use Google Gemini API for query processing.
  • We do not send personal data to Google and use only secure paid API access, where Google states prompts/responses are not used for training within paid services.

9) Application & API security

  • All communication uses HTTPS endpoints only.
  • Client applications contain no sensitive keys or credentials.

10) Monitoring, logging & backups (availability & resilience)

  • GCP provides real-time monitoring, anomaly detection and infrastructure-level intrusion prevention.
  • Automatic backups and multi-availability-zone replication support availability and resilience.

11) Data subject rights & customer support

aReception.ai supports customers in meeting GDPR obligations (requests, access control, deletion/retention processes) under the customerโ€™s controller policies and configuration.

Security summary

aReception.ai is built on Google Cloud Platform. Customer data is encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.2+). Access is controlled via authenticated identity and authorization. We do not store audio/video/image recordings from devices; only anonymous transcripts may be stored for chatbot improvements. AI processing is performed through encrypted APIs with controls preventing provider model training on customer data.
