Infrastructure security
Every layer of our platform is built on security-first principles.Encryption
AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit. Voice data, transcripts, and customer information are encrypted end-to-end across the full call lifecycle.Access control
Role-based access control (RBAC) and least-privilege principles across all systems. Every access is logged and auditable.Monitoring & detection
24/7 security monitoring with intrusion-detection systems, anomaly alerting, and comprehensive audit logging for all system activity.Business continuity
Automated backups, disaster-recovery procedures, and a 99.9% availability SLA. Redundant infrastructure across multiple availability zones.Incident response
A documented incident-response plan with defined escalation procedures, compliance with GDPR’s 72-hour breach-notification requirement, and post-incident review.Sub-processor security
Every AI sub-processor is reviewed for security and compliance before it’s added to the platform. Native, EU-resident plugins are used wherever available for the highest-sensitivity workloads (see Speech services below).1. Our sovereignty commitments
To meet the strict requirements of the European market — including GDPR Art. 9 for healthcare and other sensitive-data use cases — we operate on four principles:Zero Data Retention (ZDR)
Zero Data Retention (ZDR) applies by default to model requests routed through our managed voice AI. You do not need an Enterprise plan. The service and its model providers process prompts, audio, and model responses to complete the request. They do not log that content, retain it after the request, or use it to train models. This covers speech recognition, language models, speech synthesis, and realtime models when they use this route. The following data and services are separate:- Workspace data: Call history, recordings, transcripts, and messages follow the workspace data retention rules.
- Session diagnostics and voice samples: Diagnostics follow their own retention policy. Voice cloning stores the samples needed to reuse a voice.
- Other model routes: Direct provider connections and other services follow their own retention and training terms.
AI inference region (workspace setting)
Under Settings → Workspace, AI inference region selects Global, EU or US for workspace AI processing. The model catalog is filtered to endpoints available in the selected region.- EU: limits the catalog to models with EU endpoints available through Famulor.
- US: limits the catalog to eligible US endpoints and explicitly marked global routes.
- Global: automatic routing without an EU-only or US-only restriction. Voice processing uses the nearest available location.
2. System status & availability
Transparency about system performance matters to us. You can check live status and historical uptime per service at any time: Status page: https://status.famulor.io/ Subscribe on that page for incident updates. Historical uptime is shown per service. The platform availability target is 99.9% (see Business continuity).3. Infrastructure & platform hosting
These providers host the Famulor platform, including backend logic, databases, and the customer dashboard.
The workspace AI region controls model selection. App hosting, database storage, and session diagnostics have separate settings. See AI regions & models for network locations and model endpoints.
Private Links
A private link is a closed connection between the voice agent and a service that is not open on the public internet. The agent runs in the Voice Agent Worker. Instead of calling a public web address, it reaches that service through the cloud provider’s own private network (AWS PrivateLink or Azure Private Link). The service stays inside its cloud account. That account approves the connection once and can turn it off later. The address the agent uses works only from inside the running agent, not from a browser on the open internet. The connection is encrypted with TLS. Famulor uses private links for this. A link is available in the same region as the voice agent: Frankfurt (eu-central) and Ashburn (us-east).
HIPAA
Famulor is HIPAA compliant. For a Business Associate Agreement or any other detail, email sales@famulor.io.4. Artificial intelligence (LLM)
Depending on the model and mode, Famulor routes voice assistant requests through a managed model service or directly to a provider. Messaging replies, summaries, and other platform tasks can use Vercel AI Gateway. See Zero Data Retention for how retention differs by route. Note: The LLM provider is set automatically by the platform for most workspaces (see the standard table below) and is not manually selectable. Only workspaces with the AI Safety & Control add-on (“Automatic model fallback chains plus configurable guardrails for production reliability”) can choose the provider per assistant and configure additional fallback chains. Standard (without the AI Safety & Control add-on):
Additionally selectable with the AI Safety & Control add-on:
Platform-internal AI tasks (independent of the add-on):
5. Speech services (STT & TTS)
Specialized providers for real-time transcription (speech-to-text) and speech synthesis (text-to-speech). Famulor’s engine-mode architecture (Pipeline / Realtime / Half-Cascade) determines which of these run for a given assistant. The realtime infrastructure (LiveKit) and the object storage (AWS) behind it are listed in section 3. Note: The STT provider (transcription) — like the LLM — is set automatically by the platform and is not manually selectable without the AI Safety & Control add-on. The TTS provider (voice synthesis, voice selection) can be chosen by any user regardless of the add-on — only the voices/providers available in the workspace region selected under AI inference region are shown. SIP trunk providers are selectable per assistant, depending on the use case.The assistant’s mode and model configuration determine which providers handle each request and which regional endpoints are available.
6. Business operations & billing
Providers for transactional security and administrative management.7. WhatsApp Business processing
For WhatsApp Business:- The integration connects directly to Meta’s WhatsApp Cloud API — not routed through Twilio.
- You can use either your own WhatsApp-enabled number or a number from the Famulor number pool (depending on setup/verification).
- If using your own number, the number owner must complete verification directly in Meta Business Manager.
- Inbound WhatsApp messages are processed through configurable LLM workflows.
- Replies are sent back as an AI-generated message.
- Text, images, and voice messages can be processed within the enabled assistant configuration and used for reply generation.
8. Platform analytics
For product analytics on the dashboard itself, Famulor uses:Famulor’s documentation site (docs.famulor.io) separately uses Google Analytics 4 and Microsoft Clarity for content analytics — these do not process data from your workspace or calls. White-label customers may optionally connect their own Google Tag Manager, GA4, or Meta Pixel to their own branded domain; that configuration and its data are the customer’s own.
9. Provider legal entities & addresses
The legal entity behind each provider, with a publicly available business address (as of the date below). Newer providers added since our last full review are marked — ask Milian for their current entity details pending the next quarterly update.10. International data transfers & safeguards
For providers with US parent companies (e.g. Microsoft, Google, Vercel, Groq, ElevenLabs, Deepgram, Cartesia, LiveKit, AWS, Cloudflare), Famulor ensures compliance through:- Data residency: selecting regional endpoints and reviewing the location of each service separately.
- Legal framework: use of the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF) and/or Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).
- Enterprise agreements: contracts that exclude third-party access and model-training use of your data.
- TIA on request: for enterprise customers, Famulor prepares a Transfer Impact Assessment (TIA) on request, per EDPB Recommendations 01/2020, for any provider with a US parent company.
Transfer legal basis per US-based provider
For providers without DPF certification, Famulor has executed the EU Standard Contractual Clauses under EU Commission Decision 2021/914/EU (Module 2: Controller to Processor). These are available to enterprise customers on request.

11. Data retention
Depending on your plan, you can set retention periods per channel in Data Retention. The standard range is 1–24 months. With a 0-day period, eligible workspace data is due for deletion during the daily cleanup. Famulor can still store it until cleanup.12. Technical and organizational measures (TOMs)
Our security framework targets maximum traceability and isolation:13. Governance & maintenance
