Privacy Policy

dviilo runs phone calls and conversations for you. That means we handle recordings of conversations — yours, and those of the people your assistant speaks with. This document says plainly what we do with them.

1. Who we are

Shivankit TechSolutions (OPC) Private Limited (“Shivankit TechSolutions”, “we”) operates dviilo, from India.

Under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, we are the Data Fiduciary for your account information. When your assistant handles calls or messages with other people, your organisation is the Data Fiduciary for that conversation and we process it on your behalf — except for improving our models (section 4), which we do for ourselves.

Questions, requests and complaints: hello@shivankit.com.

2. What we collect

From your account

• Your email address or phone number, and a name if you give one. Sign-in is handled by our authentication provider; we never store your password in readable form.
• The phone numbers you register, your assistants' settings and instructions, and any voice you create.
• Payment details, handled by our payment processor.
• Usage and diagnostic information: call counts and durations, errors, IP address, and the type of browser or device.

From calls and conversations your assistant handles

• The phone numbers of both parties, and when the call happened.
• Recordings of calls.
• Transcripts, and the summaries, topics and other information derived from them.
• What your assistant did during the conversation: which tools or connected services it used, what it asked them, and what they returned.
• The content of messages sent or received through the platform.
• Contacts you add or import.

From the Android app

• Microphone audio — while you are in a call or talking to the assistant, with a notification showing for the whole time. The app does not listen for a wake word and does not record in the background.
• Precise location — when you allow it, and only when your assistant needs it to answer something, such as finding places near you.
• Your phone's contacts — when you allow it, so your assistant knows who you mean when you name someone.
• Photos and files you choose to share with your assistant.
• A push token, so we can reach the app when your assistant needs you. There is no advertising or analytics SDK in the app.
• Crash and error information, sent to our own servers.

If you use the on-device model, what you ask it and what it answers stay on your phone.

3. Why we use it

• To run the service — connect calls, transcribe them, let your assistant answer and act, and bill correctly.
• To keep it working — find and fix what broke.
• To improve our models — see section 4.
• To prevent abuse — spam, fraud, harassment, and misuse of the telephone network.
• To meet legal obligations — tax records, and lawful requests from authorities.

We do not sell your data, and we do not share it with data brokers.

4. Improving our models

We build our own AI models: the language models that decide what your assistant says and does, and the speech recognition that turns what people say into text. They learn from real conversations.

It is on by default. By using dviilo, you allow us to use your organisation's calls and conversations with its assistants — past and future — to train, evaluate and improve our models. That covers:

• For speech recognition: the audio of calls, and the transcript matched to it. Speech recognition learns from the exact words matched to the sound, so this text is kept as it was transcribed.
• For our language models:the text of conversations, including which tools the assistant used, what it asked them — for example, what you asked it to search for — and what they returned. We may keep any of this that helps our models learn. Before storing what tools were asked and what they returned, we replace some of it with a description of its shape, such as “a list of six entries”; what we keep can still include personal details, yours and other people's.

The setting belongs to the organisation. It applies to everyone in that organisation.

Conversations with other people. When someone calls a number your organisation operates, or your assistant calls or messages someone, your organisation is the Data Fiduciary for that conversation. Your organisation is responsible for telling those people that the conversation is recorded and may be used to improve the service, and for any consent its use of dviilo requires. If it cannot, it should turn model improvement off.

Turning it off. An owner of the organisation can turn model improvement off at any time by writing to hello@shivankit.com. Conversations after it is turned off are not used. A model that has already learned from earlier conversations cannot unlearn them, and the training data already built from them is kept.

What we do not do with it.We do not use it to build a synthetic copy of anyone's voice, we do not publish it, and we do not sell it.

5. Recognising people by their voice

We do not recognise or identify people by their voice.

6. Telling the people your assistant speaks with

Calls are recorded. Your organisation is responsible for telling the people its assistant speaks with that the call is recorded and handled by an AI assistant. If your use falls under sector rules — lending, insurance, healthcare, debt collection — any further consent those rules need is your organisation's to obtain.

7. Who else processes the data

We use service providers for the following. Each gets what its job needs:

• Hosting, databases, file storage and our call engine.
• Speech recognition and voice synthesis.
• Language model processing.
• Real-time audio for calls in the browser and the app.
• Web search, maps and place lookups, when your assistant needs them.
• Push notifications to the app.
• Email and SMS delivery, including sign-in codes.
• Payments.
• Error and performance monitoring.

When you connect another service to your assistant — a shopping, travel or home-automation account, for example — what your assistant sends it and receives from it goes through that service, under its own terms.

Some of these providers operate outside India, so your data may be processed abroad.

8. How long we keep it

• Account information — for as long as the account exists.
• Recordings, transcripts and conversation records — for as long as the account exists, unless you ask us to delete them sooner.
• Data used to improve our models — for as long as we use it to improve them. Deleting an account or turning model improvement off does not remove what has already been used.
• Diagnostic logs — for as long as we need them to run and fix the service.
• Billing records — for as long as Indian tax law requires. These contain no call content.

9. Your rights

You can:

• Ask what personal data we hold about you, and get a copy.
• Ask us to correct anything inaccurate or incomplete.
• Delete your account and its data — see how.
• Turn model improvement off, as described in section 4.
• Nominate someone to act for you if you die or cannot act yourself.
• Complain to us, and then to the Data Protection Board of India.

Write to hello@shivankit.com. A person handles every request.

10. How we protect it

• Connections to our public services are encrypted with TLS.
• Access to our database is controlled by row-level security.
• On your phone, your session is stored in Android's encrypted storage.

If a breach affects your personal data, we will tell you and the authorities as the law in force requires.

11. Children

dviilo is not for anyone under 18. If you believe a child has an account, write to hello@shivankit.com.

12. Changes to this policy

This policy can change. The version in force is the one at this address, with its effective date at the top, and it applies from that date. Every earlier version stays readable at its own dated link, listed at the foot of this page.
