1. Information We Collect

From Business Owners (our direct customers):

From your customers, on your behalf (end clients of a NeolinQ business):

When you use NeolinQ to manage your business, you may add your own customers' details into the platform — names, phone numbers, appointment history, and messages exchanged via WhatsApp. You, the business owner, are the data controller for your own customers' information. NeolinQ processes this data solely to provide the Service to you (sending reminders, confirmations, etc.) and does not use it for any other purpose, including marketing to your customers on our own behalf.

Automatically collected:

Device and browser information, IP address, cookies, and similar technologies when you use our website or web dashboard.

• Provide, operate, and maintain the Service (sending WhatsApp messages, managing bookings, generating reports)
• Process payments and manage subscriptions
• Send you service-related communications (billing notices, support replies, product updates)
• Improve and troubleshoot the Service
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell personal information to third parties.

3. How We Share Information

We share information only as necessary to operate the Service, with:

• Meta Platforms, Inc. — to deliver and receive WhatsApp messages via the WhatsApp Business Platform. Meta's own data policies apply to message transport and delivery.
• Razorpay — to process subscription payments. Razorpay's own privacy and security practices apply to payment processing.
• Amazon Web Services (AWS) — our cloud infrastructure provider, used to host and store data securely. AWS does not use your data for any purpose other than providing infrastructure to us.
• Anthropic — to power certain AI-assisted conversational features (such as customer self-booking). Conversation content necessary to provide this feature may be processed by Anthropic's API in accordance with their data handling terms.
• Law enforcement or regulators, only when legally required to do so.

We do not share your data with advertisers or data brokers.

4. Data Storage and Security

All data is stored on servers located in Asia Pacific — Mumbai (ap-south-1). We use encryption for sensitive data such as WhatsApp access tokens, and apply industry-standard security practices including access controls and monitoring. No method of storage or transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Data Retention

We retain your business data for as long as your account is active. If you cancel your subscription, we retain your data for 90 days to allow for reactivation, after which it is deleted or anonymized, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
