Privacy Policy
Effective date: 20 August 2026
1. Introduction
Augment AI Studio (“we”, “our” or “us”) builds AI phone agents, copilots and automation for businesses, and provides the consulting that goes with them. We are a Delaware company.
This policy explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it, who we share it with and what rights you have. It covers our website at augmentai.studio, our email and SMS communications, and the consulting services we provide directly.
It does not cover the AI systems we build and operate on behalf of our clients. Section 8 explains how those are handled.
2. Information we collect
We collect the following, depending on how you interact with us:
We do not ask for and do not want special category data, payment card numbers or government identifiers through the website. Please do not send them to us by email or SMS.
3. How we use information
We use personal information to:
4. Cookies and analytics
The website uses a small number of cookies and similar technologies. Strictly necessary ones keep the site working and cannot be switched off.
We also use analytics to understand which pages people read and how they arrive, measured in aggregate. Analytics tell us how many people read an article, not who they are. Where required by law we ask for your consent before non-essential analytics load.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Doing so may affect how parts of the site behave.
5. Artificial intelligence and model training
We build AI systems, so we want to be explicit about this.
6. SMS communications
Opt in. By giving us your phone number you agree to receive SMS messages relating to your enquiry, project updates, scheduling or support. We do not send marketing SMS to numbers that have not agreed to receive it.
Frequency. Message frequency varies with the scope of the work and the stage of a project.
Opt out. Reply STOP to any message to stop receiving them. Reply HELP for assistance. Opting out of SMS does not opt you out of email, and it does not affect any service we are contracted to provide.
Records. SMS logs are stored securely for record keeping, troubleshooting and compliance. We do not sell SMS data or share it with third parties for their own marketing.
Carriers. Standard message and data rates may apply. We are not responsible for delays or failures caused by your carrier.
7. Legal bases for processing
If you are in the UK, the European Economic Area or another region with similar law, we rely on the following legal bases:
8. When we handle data on behalf of a client
Much of our work involves building systems that process personal information belonging to a client's customers, staff or patients. In that work the client decides why and how that information is processed, and we act on their instructions. In data protection terms the client is the controller and we are the processor.
In those engagements our obligations are set by the contract with that client, including any data processing agreement. Where a client is a healthcare provider subject to HIPAA and we handle protected health information, we do so under a Business Associate Agreement.
If you believe an AI agent built by us has processed your information and you want to exercise your rights over it, contact the business that operates the agent. We will support them in responding. If you are not sure who that is, contact us and we will help you identify them.
9. How we share information
We do not sell or rent personal information. We share it only in these cases:
10. International transfers
We are based in the United States and our service providers may be located in the United States or elsewhere. If you are in the UK or the European Economic Area, your information may be transferred to a country whose data protection laws differ from your own.
Where we make such transfers we use an approved safeguard, such as the European Commission's standard contractual clauses together with any additional measures required.
11. Data security
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal information, including encryption in transit, access controls limited to people who need access, logging, and vendor review before we adopt a new provider.
No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If we become aware of a breach affecting your personal information we will notify you and any regulator where the law requires it.
12. Data retention
We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purpose it was collected, which in practice means:
13. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
California residents have the rights described above under the CCPA as amended by the CPRA, including the right to know the categories of personal information collected and disclosed. We do not sell personal information and we do not share it for cross context behavioural advertising.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in section 16. We will verify your request and respond within the time the applicable law allows. You may also complain to your local data protection authority.
14. Children's privacy
Our services are for businesses and professionals. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
15. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as our services or the law change. The effective date at the top shows when it was last revised. Material changes will be highlighted on this page, and where the law requires it we will seek your consent.
