PRIVACY POLICY

Privacy policy

This policy explains what alexdoesai.com (the "site") collects, why, and who it is shared with. The site is operated by Alexandre Santos, based in Greater Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and follows Canada's PIPEDA and British Columbia's PIPA.

The short version

What is collected and why

Visiting the site

The site is served by Cloudflare. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes your IP address, browser information, and the pages you request to deliver the site, protect it from abuse, and produce aggregate traffic statistics. This is done under Cloudflare's own privacy policy.

The site also loads Cloudflare Web Analytics, a small script that reports the page you viewed, the page that referred you, your browser and device type, your country, and page load timing. It sets no cookies, stores nothing in your browser, and does not track you across visits or across other sites. The site owner sees only aggregate counts, never individual visitors. Blocking the script does not affect how the site works.

Using the live demo

When you send a message in the demo, the site's server forwards the conversation so far, together with the demo, business type, and language you chose, to Anthropic, whose Claude model generates the reply. Anthropic processes this data as a service provider under its API terms and does not use it to train its models by default. Anthropic may retain API inputs and outputs for a limited period for trust and safety purposes.

The site does not store your conversation. It stays in your browser until you restart the demo or leave the page. Your IP address is used briefly to enforce a rate limit on the demo and is not kept afterwards.

Do not enter personal information, health information, payment details, passwords, or confidential information into the demo. It is a demonstration with fictional businesses and is not designed to hold such data.

Booking an intro call

The booking link opens a Google Calendar appointment schedule in a new tab. The name, email address, and other details you enter there are collected by Google under Google's privacy policy and shared with Alexandre Santos to arrange and hold the call. That information is used only to prepare for and follow up on the call, and is kept for as long as needed for that purpose.

Calling Sam, the AI phone assistant

The number 778-601-5891 is answered by Sam, an AI assistant that runs on Retell AI. When you call, Retell processes your phone number, the audio of the call, and a transcript, and uses AI models to generate Sam's replies. Retell processes this data as a service provider. The call is recorded and transcribed so Alexandre Santos can review it and follow up.

Your phone number is checked against a short list of businesses Alexandre Santos has contacted. If your number is on it, Sam can mention that call and what it was about. If it is not, the number is used only for the call.

If you ask Sam for the booking link, your email address is used to send you one email through Cloudflare's email sending service. A record of the call and your address is kept for 24 hours so the email is not sent twice. Recordings and transcripts are kept for as long as needed to follow up on the call and improve the assistant.

Do not share health information, payment details, or passwords on the call.

Requesting the Five-Stage Enquiry Check

When you request the Five-Stage Enquiry Check (a PDF self-audit), the site's server uses your email address to send you one email with a link to the PDF, through Cloudflare's email sending service. A copy of that email goes to Alexandre Santos, so he knows who requested it. The site itself does not store your address.

The follow-up box is optional and unticked by default. If you tick it, the email records the date and time you agreed, and Alexandre Santos may email you occasionally about AI and automation for small businesses. Every follow-up email tells you how to stop them. Reply "unsubscribe" or email hello@alexdoesai.com, and you will not be contacted again. If you leave the box unticked, you receive the one email only.

The form uses Cloudflare Turnstile to check that a person, not an automated script, is sending it. Turnstile processes your IP address and browser signals under Cloudflare's privacy policy. Your IP address is also used briefly to enforce a rate limit and is not kept afterwards.

Email

If you email hello@alexdoesai.com, your message and address are kept for as long as needed to reply and to keep a record of the correspondence.

"Ask an AI" buttons

The buttons on the left edge of the site open ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Gemini, or Perplexity in a new tab with a prompt that points at this site. Anything you do there is governed by that service's privacy policy. The site receives nothing back from them.

Sharing

Personal information is shared only with the service providers named above, to the extent needed to run the site, and where required by law. It is not sold, rented, or used for advertising.

Where data is processed

Cloudflare, Anthropic, Google, and Retell AI operate outside Canada, including in the United States, so your information may be processed there and be subject to the laws of those places.

Security

The site is served over HTTPS. The demo's API key is stored as a server-side secret and never sent to your browser. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and the site cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your rights

You can ask what personal information is held about you, ask for it to be corrected or deleted, or withdraw consent, by emailing hello@alexdoesai.com. If you are not satisfied with the response, you can contact the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner for British Columbia or the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.

Children

The site is intended for business owners and is not directed at children under 13.

Changes

This policy may be updated. The effective date at the top shows the current version.
