Who's responsible for what: controller and processor roles

For the personal data in your leads and campaigns, the responsibilities split a specific way. Here's exactly how.

Written plainly, on purpose
No vague reassurances, just what's actually true today.
01

You are the data controller

For personal data contained in the leads and campaign data you upload or connect, you, the customer, act as the data controller. You determine the purposes and lawful basis for processing that data.

02

Dialbotix is the data processor

Dialbotix processes personal data only on your documented instructions, for the purpose of providing the AI voice automation service. We don't determine the purposes or legal basis for processing your lead data.

03

What this means practically

Ensuring you have valid consent to contact the people in your leads, and complying with telemarketing and privacy laws in your jurisdiction, is your responsibility as the controller. We provide the technical tooling; we don't independently verify your consent basis.

Frequently asked

No, as a processor we're still responsible for how we handle data on your behalf, security of our systems, and processing only on your instructions. The controller/processor split specifically concerns who determines the purpose and legal basis for processing your lead data.
