Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

1. Who we are

Flowchat ("we", "us", "our") operates the automation platform at flowchat.now. We are the data controller for personal data collected through the Service. For data-related enquiries, contact us at contact@flowchat.now

2. Data we collect

Account data

Email address, name, and profile information provided during signup or via Google OAuth.

OAuth credentials

Access tokens and refresh tokens for connected apps (Google, Slack) required to run your automations. These are encrypted at rest and never shared with third parties beyond what is necessary to execute your workflows.

Automation data

Workflow configurations, conversation history with the AI assistant, and execution logs (timestamps, success/failure status).

Billing data

Subscription status and plan information. Payment details are processed and stored by Stripe — we do not store card numbers or payment details.

Usage data

Automation run counts, last active timestamps, and feature usage for service improvement.

3. How we use your data

  • To provide, operate, and maintain the Service
  • To authenticate you and manage your account
  • To execute your automations on your behalf
  • To process payments and manage subscriptions
  • To send transactional emails (account confirmations, automation failure notifications)
  • To improve the Service and fix technical issues
  • To comply with legal obligations

Our lawful basis for processing under GDPR is contract performance — we process your data to deliver the Service you signed up for.

7. Data security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data including encryption at rest and in transit, access controls, and regular security reviews. OAuth tokens are encrypted and access is restricted to the minimum necessary to run your automations. In the event of a data breach affecting your personal data, we will notify you within 72 hours as required by GDPR.

8. Cookies

We use only essential cookies required for authentication and session management. We do not use tracking or advertising cookies. No cookie consent is required for essential cookies under GDPR.

9. Children

The Service is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it.
