- Conversational data (inputs/outputs) to enhance chatbot responses and refine the service.
- Payment information to process subscriptions, which is handled securely by third-party payment processors.
- Third-party integration data, such as information from Google Calendar, to enable iQbot’s scheduling and task automation features.

We ensure that these third-party services comply with applicable privacy regulations. While these services help us provide specific functionalities, they operate independently, and iQbot is not responsible for any issues (e.g., data breaches, service disruptions) that may arise from their use.

6. How We Protect Your Data
We take the security of your personal data seriously and implement the following measures to protect it:
- Data encryption in transit and at rest to safeguard your information.
- Access controls that limit access to personal data only to authorized personnel.
- Regular security audits to ensure the highest level of protection.
While we strive to protect your information, please note that no security measure is completely foolproof. We continuously monitor and update our systems to address potential risks.
