    Privacy Policy

    This policy describes how Voltade processes data in Volty: what we collect, how it's used, who else touches it, and the controls you have.

    Last updated · November 2, 2026

    Voltade Pte. Ltd. (UEN 202307668E) of 75 Ayer Rajah Crescent, #01-16, Singapore 139953 ("Voltade", "we") handles personal data in line with the Singapore Personal Data Protection Act 2012 ("PDPA") and applicable equivalents.

    01

    Scope

    This policy covers Volty, our self-serve, managed AI teammate. Volty is a pooled multi-tenant service; each organisation's data is isolated at the database layer by Postgres Row-Level Security. Volty's runtime guardrails are documented at AI Governance & Guardrails; the full architecture is at the Volty platform whitepaper. The runtime architecture for the agents themselves (capability scoping, audit trail, human-in-the-loop) is separately documented at /ai-governance.

    §8 (international transfers), §9 (retention and deletion), §10 (security and breach notification), §11 (your rights), §12 (children's data) and §15 (contact) also apply to personal data Voltade Pte. Ltd. processes or retains from previous solutions it built or operated for customers. Requests about that data go to the same contact, team@voltade.com.

    02

    Information we process in Volty

    Volty stores the data you and your team add directly, plus the data that flows in from the channels you connect.

    2.1 Volty signup and staff bindings

    Volty accounts are created via OAuth (Google or Microsoft profile — name, email) or passwordless email or phone OTP. Where the WhatsApp phone OTP is used, Meta WhatsApp Business Cloud API delivers a one-time code from a Voltade-operated platform number; Meta processes the phone number and message content as part of that delivery. Staff members enrolled by an organisation admin to receive Volty consults on WhatsApp have their phone number stored as a verified channel binding scoped to your organisation.

    2.2 Volty contacts and conversations

    For each channel you connect (WhatsApp Business, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, web chat, and email: inbound via Amazon SES or connected Gmail or Microsoft 365 mailboxes), Volty ingests: the messages the agent and your team need to operate (content, timestamps, sender and recipient identifiers, attachments); contact records (channel identifier, phone number, profile name, display name, custom attributes you define, channel bindings); conversation metadata (status, messaging window, agent reply mode, service-level timers); and reactions and status callbacks from the channel provider.

    2.3 Volty knowledge drive and memory

    Volty stores an organisation-scoped knowledge drive containing documents you upload, drafts imported from your website (via an operator-triggered website-import operation), and agent-authored notes. It also stores per-contact memory (facts the agent has learned about a contact) and agent self-instructions. Free-text memory entries are written through a change-proposals pipeline: proposed learnings sit in review until a staff member approves them. Structured facts are auto-applied only for a closed allowlist of low-risk fields; learnings from post-hoc reflection are never auto-applied.

    2.4 Volty operational records

    Volty keeps agent-session journals (each agent "wake" emits a strict event sequence with the frozen system-prompt hash, operation calls, and tool outputs), an admin audit trail of admin actions, and an inbox audit trail of staff actions. These records are scoped to your organisation and accessible to authorised users on your team. Retention windows are in §9.

    03

    Information our AI agents process

    Volty runs a bounded, journalled "wake" per conversation: the agent sees only the conversation it is scoped to, its context is drawn from the connected channel and your organisation's knowledge drive, and every model call goes through OpenRouter under zero data retention, as described in §5. Volty's runtime is documented in detail at AI Governance & Guardrails.

    • Per-customer scope — for an inbound message from contact X, an agent has access to that contact's record, conversation history, and your organisation's knowledge base. It does not see other customers' data.
    • Bounded execution — every agent run has a token budget and a defined exit; long-running work is queued asynchronously.
    • Trace records — we record per-call usage (feature, model, token counts, estimated cost, and the model provider's response id). OpenRouter and the model hosts behind it run under zero data retention, so neither keeps the prompt or the response.
    • Output guardrails — model responses pass through a sanitiser that removes leaked internal instructions or chain-of-thought before reaching customers.

    Cross-tenant isolation

    Volty enforces tenant isolation at the database layer via Postgres Row-Level Security policies keyed on the customer's organisation identifier, applied per-transaction. Contact-triggered agent wakes run with a further-de-escalated read scope confined to a single conversation and contact. Cross-tenant data exposure is treated as a Severity-1 incident.

    04

    How we use information

    • To provide, operate, and improve the Services you've subscribed to.
    • To run the AI agents you've configured — analysing inbound messages, drafting replies, retrieving relevant records, and escalating to humans when guardrails require it.
    • To process payments, issue invoices, and administer your account.
    • To respond to support requests, security incidents, and lawful regulatory obligations.
    • To produce aggregated, de-identified diagnostics that help us measure reliability and improve the product.
    • To send service-related communications (account, billing, security). Marketing communications are sent only with your consent and you can opt out at any time.
    05

    AI models we use

    Voltade Services use multiple large language model providers. Every model call in Volty goes throughOpenRouter. Our OpenRouter account enforces zero data retention, denies data collection, and only allows these model hosts: Anthropic, OpenAI, Google (AI Studio and Vertex), Amazon Bedrock, Microsoft Azure, xAI, Fireworks, Together, DeepInfra, Novita and SiliconFlow. To generate a reply, the conversation content that reply needs is sent through OpenRouter to one of those hosts, mostly in the United States. The host does not store it or use it for training.

    The model families in use are:

    • Anthropic (Claude) — primary reasoning model for Volty. Anthropic Commercial Terms.
    • OpenAI (GPT) — used across Volty for reasoning, vision (Volty drive extraction), and embedding generation. OpenAI API content is not used to train OpenAI models. OpenAI Enterprise Privacy.
    • Google (Gemini) — reasoning and grounded web-search results in Volty.
    • xAI (Grok) — reasoning model available to Volty.
    • Open-weight models — DeepSeek, Zhipu GLM, Moonshot Kimi and Xiaomi MiMo models, available to Volty for cost-tier selection. These run on the model hosts listed above, not on the labs that trained them: no first-party DeepSeek, Moonshot, Xiaomi or Z.AI endpoint receives your data.

    In Volty, model selection is tiered by your subscription plan; the agent uses the highest-quality available model in your tier and falls back to the next-ranked model on provider failure. We may add or substitute model providers as the field evolves. Material changes are reflected in this page and, where relevant, in the subprocessor list at §7.

    Training stance

    Voltade does not train AI models on customer business data, and we do not allow our model providers to do so either. All third-party LLM calls run through API endpoints contractually configured to exclude submitted data from provider training pipelines. Volty's "learning" happens entirely inside your organisation's tenant: staff corrections propose updates to your organisation's own knowledge drive and per-contact memory, never to any model provider's training pipeline.

    Cross-border model routing

    Your Volty data is stored in Singapore, but generating a reply sends the conversation content that reply needs to a model host outside Singapore, mostly in the United States, under zero data retention. Where personal data leaves Singapore this way, we rely on contractual safeguards meeting PDPA Section 26 standards of protection. If your organisation has a policy against particular jurisdictions, contact us at team@voltade.com to discuss provider restrictions for your Volty organisation.

    We send the minimum context an agent needs for the task at hand — recent messages and the relevant slice of your knowledge base or drive, not a full database dump.

    06

    Connected platforms

    When you authorise an integration (Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Salesforce, Shopify, WooCommerce, Odoo, HubSpot, Meta channels, and others), you grant Voltade scoped access to that connected account. We use that access only for the features you've turned on. You can revoke an integration at any time from inside the product or from the third-party platform; we will stop processing immediately and begin deletion of cached data within 30 days.

    The current authoritative integrations list is published at /integrations.

    Google API limited use

    Voltade's use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

    When you connect a Gmail mailbox to Volty, Volty reads and organises the mail in that mailbox so your team and your Volty agent can work it as an inbox: new mail, Sent and Spam are synced, and replies you or the agent send go out from that mailbox. We use Gmail data only to provide and improve these user-facing features. We do not sell it, use it for advertising, or let people read it except with your permission, for security or abuse investigations, or where the law requires.

    To draft a reply, the content of the conversation that reply needs is sent to our model gateway, OpenRouter, and one of the model hosts listed in §5. They act as our subprocessors under zero data retention: they do not store the content and do not train on it. Gmail data is never used to develop, improve or train AI or machine learning models, Voltade's or anyone else's.

    07

    Subprocessors

    We work with the third parties below to deliver Volty. Each is bound by confidentiality and, where applicable, a Data Processing Agreement.

    7.1 Infrastructure and core services

    • Amazon Web Services (Singapore region — ap-southeast-1) — Aurora Postgres for the primary database, S3 for the knowledge drive and media, SES for transactional and channel email inbound.
    • Cloudflare — WAF, DNS, DDoS protection, and Zero Trust Tunnel for operator access.
    • Meta (WhatsApp Cloud API, Instagram and Messenger) — Volty's WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook Messenger channels; also delivers Volty's OAuth OTP messages and staff consult cards from Voltade-operated platform numbers.
    • Google — OAuth login for Volty administrators, and Gmail inbound for connected mailboxes.
    • Microsoft — OAuth login for Volty administrators, and Outlook / Microsoft 365 inbound for connected mailboxes.
    • Stripe — payment processing for Volty subscriptions. Card details are held by Stripe as payment processor; Voltade does not store card data.
    • Sentry — error tracking and traces for the Volty application. Telemetry is operational metadata, not customer business data.
    • OpenRouter (US) — the model gateway every Volty model call goes through, under zero data retention with data collection denied.
    • Model hosts via OpenRouter — Anthropic, OpenAI, Google (AI Studio and Vertex), Amazon Bedrock, Microsoft Azure, xAI, Fireworks, Together, DeepInfra, Novita and SiliconFlow, mostly in the United States, each under zero data retention. Model selection is tier-based; see §5.

    7.2 Operational

    • Professional advisers — auditors, lawyers, and accountants where reasonably required.
    • Authorities — only when legally compelled by valid Singapore law-enforcement, court, or regulatory request.
    • Acquirers — in connection with a corporate transaction, subject to equivalent confidentiality.

    We do not sell personal data. Customer business data in Volty is never shared with advertising networks. The only data that reaches an advertising network is the website and signup measurement described in §13.

    08

    International transfers

    Volty customer data is stored in Singapore (AWS Aurora Postgres, S3, and SES in ap-southeast-1).

    Some subprocessors operate outside Singapore. To generate a Volty reply, the conversation content that reply needs is sent through OpenRouter to a model host, mostly in the United States (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google (AI Studio and Vertex), Amazon Bedrock, Microsoft Azure, xAI, Fireworks, Together, DeepInfra, Novita and SiliconFlow), under zero data retention: the host does not store it or use it for training. Channel providers (Meta, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365) operate across multiple jurisdictions. Where personal data leaves Singapore, we rely on contractual safeguards meeting PDPA Section 26 standards of protection.

    09

    Retention and deletion

    Account and billing records are retained for the life of the account plus 7 years to meet Singapore tax and accounting requirements.

    Volty:

    • Volty contacts, conversations, knowledge drive, memory — retained for the life of your organisation. Soft-deleted conversations, contacts, and inboxes hard-purge after a 30-day grace period; drive trash purges after 30 days.
    • Organisation deletion — enters a 30-day grace period (logins blocked, cancellable). After 30 days, all customer data for the organisation is purged.
    • User account deletion — anonymised immediately on request (email replaced with a placeholder, name and phone scrubbed, sessions hard-deleted).
    • Contact Forget — anonymises the contact record and redacts merge snapshots; you can additionally request purge of conversation history under this contact.
    • Operation events (agent audit trail) — retained for approximately 3 months.
    • Admin audit and inbox audit — retained up to 12 months per policy.
    • Postgres backups — a 14-day point-in-time recovery window on managed Aurora Postgres.

    You can request deletion of your data at any time by emailing team@voltade.com, or (for Volty) directly from within the product. We will action the request within 30 days unless a legal obligation requires longer retention, in which case we will tell you.

    This section also applies to personal data Voltade Pte. Ltd. processes or retains from previous solutions it built or operated for customers. You can request deletion of that data at the same address, on the same terms.

    10

    Security

    We encrypt data in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest. Production access is restricted, MFA-enforced, and logged. We hold:

    • Singapore CSA Cyber Essentials Mark.
    • CASA Tier 2 Cloud Application Security Assessment.

    Volty-specific controls. Tenant isolation is enforced at the database layer by Postgres Row-Level Security policies keyed on the customer's organisation identifier, applied per-transaction; the Volty application database role cannot bypass Row-Level Security. Contact-triggered agent wakes run with a further-de-escalated read scope confined to a single conversation and contact. Sensitive configuration secrets (channel access tokens, connected-mailbox credentials, third-party integration credentials) are envelope-encrypted at rest with per-domain key encryption keys. Model-inference calls go through OpenRouter under zero data retention, restricted to an allowlist of model hosts.

    Breach notification. We will notify affected customers and the Singapore Personal Data Protection Commission of any notifiable data breach within 72 hours of confirming that the breach meets the PDPA notification threshold. The full register of certifications and controls lives in the Trust Centre.

    11

    Your rights (PDPA)

    Under the PDPA you may:

    • Confirm whether Voltade holds personal data about you and request a copy.
    • Correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal data — including memory entries an agent has stored about you.
    • Withdraw consent (we will tell you the consequences before doing so).
    • Revoke any third-party integration you previously authorised.
    • Lodge a complaint with the PDPC if you believe we have not handled a request properly.

    Submit requests to team@voltade.com. We respond within 30 days. A reasonable administrative fee may apply for repeated or voluminous requests.

    These rights also cover personal data Voltade Pte. Ltd. processes or retains from previous solutions it built or operated for customers. Requests about that data go to the same address.

    For Volty specifically, you can inspect and edit your organisation's knowledge drive entries and per-contact memory from inside the product. Data export for Volty is currently on request via team@voltade.com; a self-serve export tool is in development.

    12

    Children's data

    Our Services are designed for businesses. Some of our customers operate childcare, schools, and education services — in those cases the customer is responsible for obtaining parental consent before submitting any child's data through the Services, and Voltade processes such data only as a data intermediary on the customer's behalf.

    13

    Our website, cookies and advertising

    This section covers visitors to voltade.com and the Volty signup page (volty.voltade.com/signup). It does not cover the data in your Volty workspace, which never carries these tags.

    13.1 Analytics

    • Google Analytics — page views and the pages you came from on voltade.com, using Google's first-party cookies (_ga, _ga_*).
    • Mixpanel — clicks and page views on voltade.com, plus a session recording for a sample of visits, so we can see where the site confuses people.

    13.2 Google Ads conversion tracking

    We advertise Volty on Google Search. When you arrive from one of our ads, Google adds a click id to the link, and the Google tag on voltade.com and on the Volty signup page stores it in first-party cookies (_gcl_aw, _gcl_au), kept for up to 90 days. When you then create a Volty workspace, the signup page tells Google Ads a trial started, with the new workspace's id so a retry counts once.

    We use Google's enhanced conversions: your signup email is hashed with SHA-256 in your browser before it is sent to Google, and Google matches the hash to a signed-in Google account to tell us which ad led to the signup. Google does not receive the email itself. On the signup page the tag loads only there, and the page reloads without it as soon as you leave signup, so it never runs inside your Volty workspace.

    Google processes this data under its own terms. See how Google uses information from sites that use its services and how enhanced conversions work.

    13.3 Opting out

    • Global Privacy Control — if your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, neither voltade.com nor the Volty signup page loads the Google Ads tag, so no click id, conversion or hashed email reaches Google Ads. Google Analytics still runs, with Google signals and ad personalisation turned off.
    • Google ad settings — you can turn off ad personalisation for your Google account at My Ad Center.
    • Cookies — you can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking them does not stop you from signing up for Volty.

    13.4 California residents

    Under the California Consumer Privacy Act, sending the click id, conversion and hashed email in §13.2 to Google Ads may count as "sharing" personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising. We do not sell personal information, and we do not knowingly share the personal information of anyone under 16. You can opt out of sharing by turning on Global Privacy Control, which we honour as described in §13.3, or by emailing team@voltade.com. You also have the right to know, correct and delete the personal information we hold about you, and we will not treat you differently for using these rights.

    14

    Changes to this policy

    We may update this policy as the Services evolve. The "Last updated" date at the top of the page reflects the most recent change. For material changes we'll notify you directly.
