Privacy Policy
Your data belongs to you. We are transparent about what we collect, why we collect it, and how we protect it. OctaviaFlow is GDPR compliant and SOC 2 Type II certified.
01Overview
OctaviaFlow, Inc. (“OctaviaFlow”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) operates the AI-native data integration and workflow automation platform available at *.octaviaflow.com (collectively, the “Platform”). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, store, share, and protect information about you when you access or use our Platform, visit our website, or interact with us.
By using OctaviaFlow, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Platform.
Plain English Summary: We collect only what we need to operate the platform and improve your experience. We do not sell your personal data. Ever. Your workflow data — the data flowing through your pipelines — belongs to you, and we process it only on your behalf.
02Information We Collect
Account & Identity Information
When you create an account or contact us, we collect:
- Name and email address
- Company name, job title, and team size (optional, for onboarding)
- Password (stored as a salted, one-way hash — we never see your plaintext password)
- Profile photo (if you choose to upload one)
- Billing name and address (for paid plans; credit card details are handled exclusively by Stripe)
Usage & Platform Data
To operate and improve OctaviaFlow, we automatically collect:
- Workflow configurations, connector settings, and pipeline metadata
- Execution logs, error messages, and run history
- Feature usage patterns (which connectors, triggers, and AI features you use)
- API request logs, including timestamps and response codes
- Browser type, operating system, and device information
- IP address and approximate geographic region
- Referral source and UTM parameters (to understand how users find us)
Customer Data (Your Pipeline Data)
When you use OctaviaFlow to move data between systems, the data passing through our platform is your Customer Data. This may include records from your databases, CRM, e-commerce platform, or other connected applications. We process Customer Data solely to deliver the service you have configured. We do not analyze, monetize, or share Customer Data for our own purposes.
Customer Data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (AES-256). Where you have enabled field-level encryption, sensitive fields are encrypted before processing.
Communications
- Support tickets, chat messages, and email correspondence
- Survey responses and product feedback
- Comments in community forums or documentation (if applicable)
03How We Use Information

Operate & Deliver the Platform
- Authenticate your identity and maintain your account session
- Execute your workflows, data pipelines, and scheduled jobs
- Deliver real-time notifications and alerts you have configured
- Provide AI features including natural language workflow creation, smart data mapping, cost optimization recommendations, and auto-healing
- Generate execution logs, usage reports, and billing statements
Improve & Develop the Platform
- Analyze aggregate usage patterns to improve product features and UI/UX
- Diagnose and resolve technical issues, bugs, and performance problems
- Train and improve our AI models using anonymized, aggregated data — never your raw Customer Data

- Provide customer support and respond to your inquiries
- Send product updates, changelogs, and security notices (you may not opt out of security notices)

- Enforce our Terms & Conditions and other agreements
- Comply with applicable laws, regulations, and legal processes
- Protect the rights, property, and safety of OctaviaFlow, our users, and the public
04Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal data. We do not rent it, trade it, or share it for advertising purposes. We share information only in the following limited circumstances:
Service Providers (Sub-processors)
We use vetted, GDPR-compliant third-party providers to help us operate the Platform:
- Stripe — Payment processing (they handle all card data; we never see raw card numbers)
- AWS / GCP / Azure — Cloud infrastructure, compute, and storage
- Datadog / Sentry — Application performance monitoring and error tracking
- Intercom — Customer support chat and helpdesk
- Postmark — Transactional email delivery
- HashiCorp Vault — Secrets management for connector credentials
All sub-processors are bound by data processing agreements (DPAs) that restrict their use of your data to performing services on our behalf.
Business Transfers
If OctaviaFlow is acquired, merges with another company, or transfers substantially all of its assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you via email and a prominent notice on our website before any such transfer occurs, and you will have the option to delete your account beforehand.
Legal Requirements
We may disclose information if we believe in good faith that it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, respond to a valid court order or government request, protect the safety of any person, or prevent fraud or illegal activity. We will notify you of any such request where legally permitted to do so.
05Data Security
Security is not an afterthought at OctaviaFlow — it is a core design principle. We implement the following controls:
- Encryption in transit: All data transmitted between your browser, our APIs, and our internal services uses TLS 1.2 or higher
- Encryption at rest: All stored data is encrypted with AES-256
- Field-level encryption: Connector credentials and sensitive data fields are encrypted with per-tenant keys before storage
- Multi-tenant isolation: Each customer's data is logically isolated using tenant-level encryption and network segmentation
- SOC 2 Type II: We maintain SOC 2 Type II certification, audited annually by an independent third party
- Secrets management: API keys and OAuth tokens are stored in HashiCorp Vault, never in plaintext databases
- Access controls: Internal access to production systems is role-based, requires MFA, and is fully audited
- Penetration testing: We conduct regular third-party penetration tests and vulnerability assessments
- Incident response: We have a documented incident response plan. In the event of a data breach, we will notify affected users within 72 hours as required by GDPR
While we implement industry-leading security practices, no system is completely invulnerable. We encourage you to use a strong, unique password and enable two-factor authentication on your account. Report any suspected security issues to security@octaviaflow.com.
06Data Retention
We retain your data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service. Specific retention periods:
- Account data: Retained for the duration of your account. Deleted within 30 days of account closure upon request
- Workflow execution logs: Retained for 90 days on paid plans, 30 days on the Free tier (configurable on Business and Enterprise plans)
- Customer Data (pipeline data): We do not store your Customer Data beyond the time needed to execute your workflows. Temporary processing buffers are purged within 24 hours
- Billing records: Retained for 7 years as required by accounting regulations
- Support communications: Retained for 3 years after the last interaction
- Security logs: Retained for 1 year for fraud prevention and security audit purposes
You may request early deletion of your data at any time by contacting privacy@octaviaflow.com. We will fulfill deletion requests within 30 days, except where we are legally required to retain certain records.

09Third-Party Services
OctaviaFlow connects to 600+ third-party applications through our connector library. When you authorize a connection (e.g., Salesforce, Slack, Snowflake), you grant OctaviaFlow API access to that service on your behalf. We store the resulting OAuth tokens or API credentials in encrypted form using HashiCorp Vault.
Third-party services have their own privacy policies and terms of service, which govern how they handle your data independently of OctaviaFlow. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party applications you connect to our Platform.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services. Our AI features — including natural language processing and smart data mapping — may use models hosted by providers such as OpenAI or Anthropic, subject to our data processing agreements with those providers. Metadata and anonymized schema information may be processed by these AI providers to power our AI features, but your raw Customer Data is not sent to AI providers without your explicit configuration.
10Children's Privacy
OctaviaFlow is a business platform intended for use by organizations and professionals aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16 (or under 13 in the United States). If we discover that we have inadvertently collected information from a child below the applicable age threshold, we will delete that information promptly.
If you believe we have collected information from a minor, please contact us immediately at privacy@octaviaflow.com.
11International Data Transfers
OctaviaFlow operates globally with infrastructure in the United States, European Union (Frankfurt), Singapore, and additional regions. If you are located in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, your data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your region, including the United States.
We ensure that all cross-border data transfers comply with applicable law through:
- Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs): Approved by the European Commission for transfers from the EEA to third countries
- Data Processing Agreements (DPAs): Executed with all sub-processors and applicable customers
- EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework: Where applicable, we rely on adequacy decisions and approved transfer mechanisms
Enterprise customers may configure their data to remain within a specific geographic region (e.g., EU-only). Contact enterprise@octaviaflow.com to discuss data residency requirements.
12Policy Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. When we make significant changes, we will:
- Update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page
- Send an email notification to all registered account holders
- Display a prominent notice on the Platform for at least 30 days
For material changes that affect how we use your data, we will seek your renewed consent where required by law. Continued use of the Platform after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
