- Data Protection – Roles and Responsibilities
8.1 Roles
For Personal Data processed in connection with the Services, and in particular the AI Voice Services:
- you are the Controller for caller data, call recordings and related Personal Data; and
- BAPPCO is the Processor.
In limited cases, BAPPCO will act as an independent Controller (e.g. for its own business contact data, usage logs for security, and records necessary to comply with legal obligations).
8.2 Processing on Your Instructions
BAPPCO will process Personal Data only:
- on your documented instructions, as set out in this Agreement and any Order Form, or as otherwise agreed in writing; and
- as required by law, in which case we will inform you (unless prohibited by law).
8.3 Customer (Controller) Responsibilities
As Controller, you are responsible for:
- determining the purposes and lawful bases for Processing;
- providing appropriate privacy notices;
- obtaining any required consent from Data Subjects;
- ensuring your configurations, call flows and AI use comply with Applicable Data Protection Law, Article 22 UK GDPR and DUAA;
- performing data protection impact assessments where required; and
- responding to Data Subject requests and regulatory enquiries.
8.4 Data Location and Transfers
BAPPCO uses infrastructure and Sub-Processors located within and outside the UK and the EEA. While BAPPCO may seek to use providers that support UK/EEA data hosting where appropriate, neither BAPPCO nor its Third-Party Providers guarantee that all Personal Data will be stored or accessed only within the UK or EEA.
Customer Data may therefore be transferred to and processed in countries outside the UK/EEA, which may have different data protection laws. Where such transfers occur, BAPPCO will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place (for example, UK adequacy regulations, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, or other Article 46 UK GDPR mechanisms), as required by Applicable Data Protection Law.
8.5 Retention
BAPPCO will retain Personal Data processed on your behalf only for as long as necessary to provide the Services, comply with legal obligations, or resolve disputes. Following termination, Personal Data will be handled in accordance with clause 15.6 and Schedule 1.
- Data Processing Terms (Article 28 UK GDPR / DUAA)
9.1 Security Measures
BAPPCO will implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect Personal Data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access, taking into account the nature of the processing and the risks involved.
9.2 Confidentiality
BAPPCO will ensure that persons authorised to process Personal Data are subject to appropriate confidentiality obligations.
9.3 Sub-Processors
You authorise BAPPCO to appoint Sub-Processors, including Third-Party Providers (such as ElevenLabs, n8n, Twilio, cal.com and cloud infrastructure providers) to process Personal Data for the purposes of providing the Services.
BAPPCO will:
- impose data protection obligations on Sub-Processors that are materially no less protective than those in this Agreement; and
- remain responsible to you for Sub-Processors’ processing of Personal Data on our behalf.
We will maintain a list of key Sub-Processors and notify you of any material changes, giving you a reasonable opportunity to object. If you reasonably object on data protection grounds and we cannot reasonably accommodate your concerns, you may terminate the affected Service.
9.4 Assistance with Data Subject Rights
Taking into account the nature of the processing, BAPPCO will provide reasonable assistance to you, at your cost where appropriate, to respond to Data Subject requests to exercise their rights (access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection, and rights related to automated decision-making).
9.5 Data Protection Impact Assessments and Consultation
BAPPCO will provide reasonable cooperation and support, upon request and to the extent required by law, in relation to any data protection impact assessments or prior consultations with Supervisory Authorities that relate to your use of the Services.
9.6 Personal Data Breaches
If BAPPCO becomes aware of a Personal Data Breach affecting Personal Data processed on your behalf, we will:
- notify you without undue delay;
- provide information reasonably available to help you meet any breach notification obligations; and
- take reasonable steps to mitigate and remediate the breach.
9.7 Audit
On reasonable prior written notice, and no more than once in any 12-month period (except following a material security incident), you may:
- review BAPPCO’s relevant security and compliance documentation; and/or
- conduct (or appoint a third party to conduct) an audit of BAPPCO’s compliance with these data processing terms, subject to reasonable confidentiality, scheduling and cost-allocation arrangements.
- AI Governance, Article 22 UK GDPR and DUAA
10.1 Automated Decision-Making
Where the Services are configured to make or support decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which have legal or similarly significant effects on individuals, Article 22 UK GDPR and related ICO guidance apply.
10.2 Customer Responsibilities
You are responsible for:
- deciding whether your use of AI Voice Services involves automated decision-making or profiling within Article 22;
- ensuring that such processing is permitted under Article 22 and DUAA (e.g. explicit consent, necessity for a contract, or authorisation by law) and that appropriate safeguards are implemented;
- designing and configuring call flows and processes to include meaningful human review where required;
- monitoring for and mitigating unfair bias, discrimination or other harmful outcomes; and
- providing Data Subjects with clear information about automated decision-making and mechanisms to request human intervention, express their views and contest decisions.
10.3 BAPPCO AI Governance Commitments
BAPPCO will:
- provide documentation on the capabilities, limitations and typical use cases of relevant AI features;
- maintain logs and monitoring capabilities to support transparency, troubleshooting and accountability;
- take into account relevant DUAA developments when updating its AI governance approach, particularly regarding data use, transparency, and AI-related copyright issues.
10.4 No Legal Advice
Information provided by BAPPCO on AI governance, Article 22 or DUAA is general in nature and does not constitute legal advice. You remain solely responsible for your own legal compliance.

- 95.0%–97.99%: 10% of monthly subscription fees;
- <95.0%: 25% of monthly subscription fees.
Service Credits:
