Privacy Policy
Plain English summary: We collect only what we need to run your service. We never sell your data. We never train AI models on your data. Your documents and conversations are yours — always.
1. Who We Are
Phosphoros ("we," "us," "our") is an AI workforce amplification company based in Washington, D.C. We provide managed AI services to businesses and government contractors. This policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information.
2. What We Collect
Account & Contact Information
- Name, email address, company name, phone number
- Billing information (processed by Stripe — we never store raw card numbers)
- Job title and department (for enterprise accounts)
Customer Content (Your Data)
- Documents, files, and text you upload to train your AI Teammate
- Conversations your employees or customers have with your AI Teammate
- Configuration settings and custom instructions for your AI agents
Usage & Technical Data
- Invocation counts, response times, error logs
- IP addresses, browser type (for the PHOS chat widget on your website)
- Integration activity logs (Slack, HubSpot, etc.)
3. How We Use Your Data
- To provide and operate your AI Teammates — your documents train your agents; your conversation logs help us monitor performance
- To send service communications — onboarding, usage alerts, invoices, SLA notifications
- To improve our platform — aggregated, anonymized usage metrics only. Never individual customer data.
- To comply with legal obligations — responding to lawful government requests with notice to you where permitted
We never: sell your data to third parties, use your content to train AI models, share your data with other customers, or use your conversations for advertising.
4. Data Isolation
Every Phosphoros customer operates in a logically isolated environment. Your knowledge base, conversation history, and AI agent configurations are stored separately from all other customers. Phosphoros employees can only access your data for support purposes, and only with your explicit permission or in response to a critical incident.
5. AI Model Providers
We route your AI requests through OpenAI and Anthropic APIs via our infrastructure. Your data is never sent directly to these providers by your systems — it passes through Phosphoros servers first, where we apply content filtering, session management, and security controls.
Both OpenAI and Anthropic's enterprise API agreements include zero data retention and no training on API data. We operate under these enterprise terms for all customer data.
6. Data Retention
- Active accounts: Data retained for the duration of your subscription plus 90 days
- Conversation logs: Retained for 12 months by default; configurable to 30 or 90 days on request
- Upon cancellation: All customer content deleted within 30 days of your written request
- Backups: Purged within 90 days of primary deletion
7. Security
- All data encrypted in transit using TLS 1.3
- All data encrypted at rest using AES-256
- Access controls: role-based, least-privilege, MFA required for all internal staff
- SOC 2 Type II audit targeted Q4 2026
- Penetration testing conducted quarterly
- Incident response: notification within 72 hours of confirmed breach affecting your data
8. Your Rights
Regardless of your location, we honor the following rights:
- Access: Request a copy of all data we hold about you
- Correction: Update inaccurate personal information
- Deletion: Request deletion of your account and all associated data
- Portability: Receive your knowledge base documents and conversation data in a machine-readable format
- Objection: Opt out of any non-essential data processing
Submit requests to [email protected]. We respond within 30 days.
9. GDPR & CCPA
For customers subject to GDPR (EU/EEA) or CCPA (California): we act as a Data Processor for your customer content and as a Data Controller for your account information. A Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is available upon request and is included automatically in all Scale and Enterprise contracts.
10. Cookies
Our marketing website uses minimal cookies: session authentication and basic analytics (page views, referral source). No advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. You can disable cookies in your browser without affecting core functionality.
11. Changes to This Policy
We'll notify you by email at least 30 days before making material changes. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
