Is AI customer service GDPR-compliant?

A clear answer to a common question about AI customer service for webshops.

Short answer: Yes, provided customer data is processed encrypted, you retain control over which data is accessible, and you can revoke integrations at any time. YDM is built for this from the ground up.

GDPR and customer data

An AI assistant processes personal data: names, addresses, order details. Under GDPR, that must be done carefully. With YDM, access credentials are stored encrypted and the assistant uses data solely to answer customer questions.

What to watch out for

Only process data needed to answer the question.
Ensure encrypted storage of access credentials.
Retain control over which systems the assistant may access.
Can integrations be revoked at any time?
Arrange for deletion of personal data on request.

Your control

You decide which data the assistant may access and can shut off any integration instantly. Also read what customer data an AI assistant needs.
