1Introduction
ONVEO ("ONVEO", "we", "us", or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting personal information.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, disclose, and protect personal information when you visit our website, submit a form, start a subscription, book a demo, communicate with us, or use our AI receptionist and business automation services.
ONVEO provides AI receptionist, customer communication, appointment booking, lead capture, and business automation services for local businesses across channels such as phone calls, SMS, WhatsApp, website chat, email, calendars, and connected business systems.

Call recording, call monitoring, AI disclosure, and consent requirements vary by location and industry. Businesses using ONVEO are responsible for ensuring that callers and customers receive any required disclosures and that any call recording, transcription, AI use, or automated communication is lawful in the locations where they operate.
A recommended disclosure may include wording such as: "Hi, this is ONVEO, the AI receptionist for this business. This call may be recorded or summarised to help manage your enquiry. How can I help today?"
Businesses should obtain legal advice before using call recording, AI calling, or automated communication in regulated industries or jurisdictions.
