        Here’s a breakdown of our routine process:
        6.2 Set-up
        When a customer initially sets up their account, a small number of engagement instances will be retained to provide templates for data formatting. These instances are anonymized in accordance with our privacy policy.
        6.3 Data Retention
        While we use the interaction texts from platforms to calculate our analytics, we do not store these interactions. They are used solely for real-time analysis, verifying and are discarded immediately.
        6.4 Interaction Texts
        In the course of transferring data from platforms through our app, we ensure that sensitive information such as credit card numbers and phone numbers are redacted before being sent to our backend. This step underscores our commitment to safeguarding your customers’ privacy and adhering to data protection standards.
        6.5 Data Redaction
        When a customer initially sets up their account, a small number of engagement instances will be retained to provide templates for data formatting. These instances are anonymized in accordance with our privacy policy.
        6.6 Surveys
        When a ticket satisfies the criteria of a survey to be sent on our customer’s behalf to their customer, the email address is added to a temporary queue and the queue is promptly deleted as soon as the survey is sent.
