3. Our Role Under GDPR
Depending on the context, we act as either:
(a) Data Processor
When processing customer data (e.g., debtors, members, or payers) on behalf of our business clients (credit unions, lenders, finance companies), we act as a data processor.
In this role, the client remains the data controller and determines the lawful basis, consent, and purpose of contact.
(b) Data Controller
We act as a data controller for information relating to:
-
Our business contacts and clients;
-
Website visitors and service subscribers;
-
Our employees, contractors, and partners.

Analysing voice tone, intent, and emotion to personalise responses
-
Generating and storing call transcripts for audit and training (within agreed retention)
-
Providing compliance reporting and recovery analytics

Managing billing, support, and security
We never sell personal data or use call content for unrelated marketing or profiling.
6. Legal Basis For Processing
We process data based on the following lawful bases under the UK/EU GDPR:
| Purpose | Legal Basis |
|---|---|
| Delivering and managing client campaigns | Contractual necessity (Article 6(1)(b)) |
| Analysing AI calls and transcripts | Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)) — improving service quality and compliance |
| Communicating with clients | Legitimate interests and contractual necessity |
| Storing data securely and maintaining logs | Legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c)) |
| Marketing to business prospects | Legitimate interests (soft opt-in under PECR) |
Clients are responsible for ensuring they have an appropriate lawful basis (e.g., consent or legitimate interest) for contacting their customers.
7. AI Processing And Human Review
Cleveri’s platform uses AI-driven speech recognition, natural language understanding, and emotion detection to analyse voice data in real time.
-
Emotion & Intent Detection: AI identifies stress, confidence, or willingness-to-pay indicators.
-
Human Escalation: When AI detects complex or sensitive cases, our trained agents review transcripts or take over live calls.
-
Transparency: All AI activity is logged and auditable.
-
Explainability: Each AI decision (e.g., risk score, escalation trigger) is recorded with confidence scores.
No automated decision is made without human oversight where such decisions could materially affect an individual.
8. Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for contractual or regulatory purposes.
| Data Type | Typical Retention | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| AI call recordings | 90 days | Quality assurance, compliance audit |
| Transcripts & emotion data | 180 days | Reporting, accuracy verification |
| Client billing records | 6 years | Legal & tax compliance |
| Anonymised analytics | Indefinite | Model improvement (non-personal) |
At the end of retention, data is securely deleted or irreversibly anonymised using ISO/IEC 27001–aligned processes.
