1. Introduction
Octaboo respects the privacy and personal data of its customers, users, prospects, leads, business partners, and all individuals whose data may be processed through the Octaboo platform.
This Privacy Policy explains how Octaboo collects, receives, uses, stores, shares, transfers, protects, and deletes personal data when you access or use Octaboo’s website, software platform, dashboard, mobile or web applications, integrations, AI agents, lead management tools, customer support channels, and related services.
Octaboo is an AI-led lead operations platform that centralizes inbound leads from multiple channels into one unified inbox and uses AI agents to respond, qualify, tag, score, route, summarize, and organize conversations into sales-ready prospect profiles.
This Policy is designed to comply, where applicable, with:
- Egyptian Personal Data Protection Law No. 151 of 2020 and its executive regulations and implementing decisions;
- Egyptian Anti-Cyber and Information Technology Crimes Law No. 175 of 2018;
- applicable Egyptian civil, commercial, telecommunications, consumer protection, and electronic transaction laws;
- the EU General Data Protection Regulation, where applicable;
- Meta Platform, WhatsApp Business, Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger requirements;
- Google API Services User Data Policy, Google APIs Terms of Service, and applicable Limited Use requirements;
- any other mandatory privacy, data protection, security, platform, or regulatory requirements that apply to Octaboo’s services.
By accessing or using Octaboo, creating an account, connecting a communication channel, inviting users, uploading data, using AI agents, or allowing Octaboo to process lead or customer data, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.
2. Scope of This Policy
This Policy applies to:
- Octaboo business customers, including agencies, companies, growth teams, sales teams, and their authorized users;
- visitors to Octaboo’s website and landing pages;
- individuals who contact Octaboo for sales, support, partnership, billing, or general inquiries;
- leads, prospects, and end customers whose data is received, processed, organized, or qualified through Octaboo on behalf of Octaboo customers;
- users who connect Meta, WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, Messenger, Google, email, CRM, web form, website chat, advertising, or other third-party integrations to Octaboo;
- white-label or agency-branded deployments powered by Octaboo.
This Policy does not replace the privacy policy of Octaboo’s business customers. Where an agency, advertiser, company, or other business customer uses Octaboo to manage its own leads, that customer remains responsible for giving its own leads and prospects any legally required privacy notices and obtaining any required consents.
3. Legal Role of Octaboo
Octaboo may act in different legal roles depending on the type of data and processing activity.
For account, billing, website, marketing, platform security, customer support, product analytics, and business relationship data, Octaboo generally acts as a data controller.
For lead, prospect, conversation, campaign, inbox, and customer data processed on behalf of a business customer through Octaboo, Octaboo generally acts as a data processor or service provider, and the business customer acts as the data controller.
For certain platform, compliance, fraud prevention, security, legal, or aggregated analytics activities, Octaboo may act as an independent controller to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Where required, Octaboo and its business customers may enter into a separate Data Processing Agreement, service agreement, or similar document that governs the processing of personal data.

Where Octaboo acts as a processor for a business customer, the business customer is responsible for establishing the lawful basis for collecting and processing the relevant lead, prospect, or end-customer data.
8. AI Agents and Automated Processing
Octaboo uses AI-powered features to assist with lead response, qualification, scoring, tagging, summarization, routing, and reporting.
These features may involve automated analysis of messages and lead attributes. The purpose is to help business customers respond faster, organize lead data, and prioritize follow-up.
AI outputs may not always be accurate or complete. Business customers are responsible for configuring playbooks, scripts, guardrails, approval modes, escalation rules, and human review standards appropriate to their business, industry, and legal obligations.
Octaboo recommends human review for high-risk conversations, sensitive inquiries, regulated industries, complaints, pricing commitments, contractual statements, financial decisions, medical claims, legal advice, and any communication that may materially affect a person’s rights or obligations.
Octaboo does not intend AI scoring or routing to produce legal or similarly significant effects without human involvement.
