Privacy Policy
At NeonPing ("we," "our," or "us"), we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it through our compliance with this policy. This Privacy Policy describes the types of information we may collect from you or that you may provide when you visit the website neonping.com (our "Website") and use our WhatsApp AI commerce platform (our "Services").
1. Information We Collect
To provide our Services, which operate as an artificial intelligence interface bridging WhatsApp and your Shopify store, we collect several types of information:
- Account Information: When you register, we collect your name, business email address, company name, and billing information.
- Shopify Store Data: We connect to your Shopify store via API to retrieve product inventory, pricing, descriptions, and policies necessary for the AI to function accurately.
- End-User Communications: We process the text messages sent by your customers (End-Users) over WhatsApp to our platform. These texts are analyzed to generate sophisticated, contextually accurate purchasing responses.
- Usage Data: We collect non-personally identifiable information about how you interact with our Website, including IP addresses, browser types, and navigation paths.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to operate, maintain, and provide the features of NeonPing.
- To fulfill our core service: parsing WhatsApp messages from your buyers and cross-referencing them with your Shopify inventory to facilitate sales.
- To train, optimize, and improve our AI routing models (End-User messages are anonymized and stripped of PII prior to any aggregated learning).
- To communicate with you regarding your account, technical updates, and security alerts.
- To process transactions and prevent fraudulent activities.
3. Third-Party Sub-Processors
Because NeonPing acts as an intelligent intermediary, we rely on trusted third-party providers. By using our Services, you consent to data processing through:
- Meta Platforms, Inc. (WhatsApp API): To receive and send messages to your End-Users.
- Shopify Inc.: To read inventory data and securely create checkout links.
- OpenAI / Anthropic: We utilize state-of-the-art Large Language Models to interpret user queries. NeonPing operates over zero-data-retention enterprise API endpoints, meaning your customers' text prompts are never used by these third parties to train their public public models.
4. Data Security & Storage
We implement commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures to safeguard your personal data and your customers' data. Infrastructure is hosted on secure, compliant cloud environments (e.g., AWS/GCP). While we encrypt data in transit and at rest, no system is perfectly secure. We cannot guarantee the absolute security of any information transmitted to us.
5. CCPA and GDPR Compliance
If you are a resident of California (under CCPA) or the European Economic Area (under GDPR), you have specific rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, rectify, or securely erase your data. Since we operate as a Data Processor for your End-Users' data, we will assist you (the Data Controller) in fulfilling data subject access requests.
6. Changes to Our Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top.
