Privacy Policy

How Ringmere handles personal data, in plain English.

Who we are

Ringmere provides an AI phone receptionist to UK service businesses. For call data processed on behalf of a business customer, that business is the data controller and Ringmere acts as a data processor.

What we process

Account details for business customers, and, on their behalf, caller phone numbers, names, booking details and call recordings/transcripts needed to answer calls and make bookings.

Why

To answer calls, book appointments, capture enquiries, prevent spam/fraud, and provide the dashboard and support. Callers are told at the start of a call that it is handled by an automated assistant and may be recorded.

Where it’s stored

Data is hosted in the UK/EU, encrypted in transit and at rest. We use vetted sub-processors (telephony, AI, email, payments) under data-processing terms.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you can request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of your data. Business customers can action caller requests from the platform. Email info@ringmere.com to exercise your rights.

Retention

Call data is retained only as long as needed for the service and your configured retention period, then deleted.
