FAQs

Exotel's Customer Data Privacy solution serves as a robust method for businesses to protect their customers' identities and prevent the misuse of sensitive information. This is achieved through anonymization, ensuring that customer phone numbers remain confidential. With this solution, two parties can connect without revealing their actual phone numbers. Instead, a Virtual Number from Exotel's inventory is used, associated with the transaction between these parties.

Exotel provides multiple approaches to implement data privacy, tailoring the solution to your specific business needs, call flow logic, and platform. Our team offers guidance on selecting the most suitable method for your unique scenario. Some of the implementation options include:

  • Customer Data Privacy in CRM
  • Caller-Initiated Privacy
  • Pin-Based Privacy

To explain this let's take the example of a food delivery company. Whenever a customer places an order, Exotel’s Voice API assigns a temporary virtual number for the transaction and the delivery agent gets a click-to-call button in his/her app.

As soon as the delivery agent clicks on the call button, the temporary virtual number calls the customer’s number, and thus, the delivery agent gets connected.

This way, as the temporary virtual number acts as a bridge between the two, both the delivery agent and the customer cannot see each other’s real phone numbers.

Following are some of the popular use-cases:

Cab aggregators: Connect drivers and riders without revealing the rider’s phone number.

E-commerce, Logistics, and Food Delivery: Connect delivery agent and customer without revealing either party’s phone numbers.

BFSI: Connect relationship managers and customers while protecting their privacy.

The Phone Number Privacy solution makes use of 2 call legs to connect the caller and the callee. Therefore, a 2 call-leg price will be applicable here. Also, you need to buy a pool of virtual numbers and an API from our platform to implement this solution.

In the modern world, securing personal data has become crucial due to the rise in digital interactions. India's introduction of the Data Protection Bill (DPDP) underscores this need. Under DPDP, companies handling the personal data of Indians are required to follow strict rules to ensure data privacy and security. It’s a significant step that makes data protection a core aspect of business operations in the country, ensuring every piece of personal information is treated with utmost care and respect.

This is important for BFSI, E‐commerce, Logistics, Cabs on-demand, and Marketplace models of business. These are verticals where the customer’s phone number needs to be shared with the delivery person, a driver, a vendor, etc.

Therefore, in order to safeguard both the customers’ as well as the agents’ privacy, implementing this solution is a must.

Additionally, a big plus point for the businesses is that all the conversations will happen only on their platform, and they get complete control over the call data.
