All collected data (chat logs, training data) is stored on AWS (Amazon Web Services) servers in Virginia, United States & GCP (Google Cloud Platform) servers in The Dalles, Oregon, United States, with the latest encryption technology (both in transit and at rest). We strive to protect user data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

5. Length of Data Storage

5.1 - We store User Provided Information while you are a customer of automatic.chat as well as after you have stopped using our services, unless there is an explicit request to delete your data. This is for accounting, training, and support purposes.

6. International Data Transfers

6.1 - Transferring Your Data Internationally: In order to provide our services, we may need to transfer your personal data outside of the United Kingdom (UK) and the European Economic Area (EEA). This can occur if our servers or our service providers are located outside the UK/EEA. We ensure that these transfers are performed in a secure and lawful manner.

6.2 - Legal Safeguards for Data Transfers: To protect your personal data when it is transferred outside the UK/EEA, we implement robust legal safeguards. One key mechanism we use is the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission. The SCCs provide specific data protection and privacy guarantees, which our data processors outside the UK/EEA are contractually obligated to follow.

6.3 - About Standard Contractual Clauses: The Standard Contractual Clauses are a set of legal terms that ensure all data transfers meet the UK's GDPR compliance requirements. For more information on these clauses, please click here.

8. User Rights
