GDPR + AI customer support.

GDPR applies whenever an EU resident interacts with your AI assistant. helpcode is designed so the GDPR-compliant path is the default — EU hosting, signed DPA, sub-processor transparency, no training on customer data, and self-service erasure.

In three points

.01

Lawful basis

.02

Data minimisation

helpcode only stores the conversation transcript and the citations. PII is redactable per-tenant at write time.

.03

Data subject rights

Articles 15-22 supported: access, rectification, erasure, portability, restriction.
