TelloCast is a product of Tilism Technologies, a software company that builds an omnichannel messaging, ticketing and customer-support platform ("mini CRM") that lets businesses manage conversations with their own customers from a single dashboard - including live website chat, SMS, Facebook Messenger, Instagram Direct Messages and WhatsApp - together with agent/supervisor tools, ticket & feedback management, and customer satisfaction (CSAT) scoring.

This policy covers two distinct situations, because we act in two different roles:
| When... | Our role | What that means |
|---|---|---|
| You visit our website (tellocast / tilismtech site), request a demo, sign up for an account, or contact us directly | Data Controller | We decide why and how your personal data is processed, as described in this policy. |
| A business customer uses TelloCast to chat with their own end-customers over web chat, SMS, Messenger, Instagram or WhatsApp | Data Processor / Service Provider | We process conversation data on behalf of, and under the instructions of, our business customer, solely to provide the Service to them. The business customer remains responsible for their own privacy practices toward their end-customers. |
If you are an end-customer who has messaged a business through TelloCast and have questions about how that specific business handles your data, please also refer to that business's own privacy policy. You may still contact us using the instructions in Section 10 (Data Deletion Instructions) to make a request regarding data stored on our systems.
When a business uses TelloCast to talk to its own customers, the platform processes conversation content and metadata (sender name, phone number/handle, message text, attachments, timestamps, agent notes, ticket status and CSAT ratings) so that the business's agents can view, reply to and manage those conversations from one dashboard.
When a business customer connects their Facebook Page, Instagram professional account, or WhatsApp Business number to TelloCast, we receive and process, strictly on that business's behalf, the following categories of data made available by Meta Platforms, Inc. through the Messenger Platform, Instagram Messaging API and WhatsApp Business API:
We only use this data to deliver the messaging/ticketing features the business customer has configured - for example, showing the conversation in their agent dashboard, routing it to the right agent or team, and letting them reply. We do not use data obtained from Facebook, Instagram or WhatsApp to sell, rent, or share it with data brokers or advertisers, and we do not use it to build advertising profiles.
We do not sell personal data. We only share information in the following circumstances:
Our use of any information received via Facebook, Instagram or WhatsApp complies with the Meta Platform Terms and Meta Developer Policies. Specifically:
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to keep the site working correctly, remember preferences, and understand how visitors use the site (analytics). You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; disabling cookies may affect some site functionality.
We retain website inquiry/lead data for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your inquiry and for legitimate business record-keeping, after which it is deleted or anonymized. Conversation data processed within TelloCast on behalf of a business customer is retained for as long as that customer's account is active, or as otherwise instructed by that customer, and is deleted within a reasonable period after the account is closed or upon a valid deletion request.
You can request the deletion of personal data associated with you from our systems at any time. This applies whether you are a website visitor, a TelloCast business customer, or someone who messaged a business through TelloCast over web chat, SMS, Messenger, Instagram or WhatsApp.
To request deletion of your data:
Business customers can also remove connected Facebook Pages, Instagram accounts or WhatsApp numbers directly from their TelloCast dashboard settings at any time, which revokes our access to that channel going forward.
Depending on your location, you may have the right to: access the personal data we hold about you; request correction of inaccurate data; request deletion of your data; object to or restrict certain processing; and request a copy of your data in a portable format. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in Section 17.
We use reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure or destruction, including access controls and encrypted transmission (HTTPS/TLS). No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Our website and the TelloCast platform are intended for business use and are not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 (or the minimum age required by local law). If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can delete it.
Our systems and service providers may be located in countries other than your own. Where personal data is transferred internationally, we take reasonable steps to ensure it continues to be protected in line with this policy.
Our website may contain links to third-party sites (including Meta's own platforms). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties, and we encourage you to review their respective privacy policies.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational or regulatory reasons. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when this policy was last revised. Material changes will be reflected on this page.
