Everything Eiro Systems does to keep your data, your customers' data, and your payments safe. This page consolidates all compliance, security, and data-handling details in one place so the rest of the site can stay focused on the product.
Eiro Systems operates under South African law and complies with the Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013. Full detail on how POPIA applies to your data lives in our Privacy Policy, including the appointed Information Officer, your access and deletion rights, and how to lodge a complaint with the Information Regulator of South Africa.
Processing: Visitor messages on your widget are sent to our server, forwarded to Anthropic's Claude API to generate a response, and the response is returned. No message is shared with any third party beyond Anthropic.
Retention: On Starter Annual and Pro Annual (hosted plans), chat logs are retained for 30 days for support and quality purposes, then permanently deleted. On Self-hosted, no chat data ever reaches our servers — retention is entirely under your control.
Residency: Hosted chat logs are stored on infrastructure located inside South Africa or the European Union. Anthropic processes messages according to their own data-handling policies (anthropic.com/legal/privacy).
Training: We do not use your customers' chat messages to train any AI model. Ever.
Ownership: The knowledge base trained for your bot belongs to you. On cancellation, we delete it from our systems within 7 days on request.
All card payments are processed by Yoco, our third-party payment provider. Yoco is a registered payment processor and handles all PCI-DSS compliant processing on our behalf.
Our widget clearly identifies itself as an AI agent. It never claims to be human and never impersonates a named staff member. When a query falls outside what the bot can answer, it routes the customer to your real contact channels rather than making something up.
We use a small, deliberate set of sub-processors. Each is bound by data protection obligations:
We update this list if it changes. The current Privacy Policy is always the source of truth.
