Data privacy and security FAQ
- How does Sovi AI use customer data?
- Sovi AI doesn't access your transactional data, account information, or any business data stored in the Sovos platform. It only uses conversation data to provide you with relevant answers within your session. Your questions and Sovi AI's responses are processed to understand context and deliver accurate guidance.
- Which LLMs are being used?
- Sovi AI is powered by large language models (LLMs) accessed through AWS Bedrock, Amazon's managed AI service. AWS Bedrock provides enterprise-grade security, compliance, and performance while giving Sovos access to leading foundation models.
- Do any of the LLM providers store customer data?
- No. Sovos has restrictive agreements with LLM providers that prohibit them from storing, using, or training on your conversation data. The LLM providers process each request individually and securely. They send their responses directly back to Sovos and don't retain any information.
- Can I limit or restrict the data that is shared with Sovi AI?
- Sovi AI only accesses Sovos product documentation. It does not access your business data, transactions, or account information. By design, Sovi AI only provides guidance based on publicly available product knowledge.
- Does Sovi AI use my inputs and outputs to train Sovos products and services?
- No. Sovi AI doesn't use your inputs or outputs to train Sovos products and services. Sovos only uses anonymized interaction data to improve the overall experience. This data might include feature usage patterns and feedback that you choose to provide. The content of your conversations is not used for training.
- Is any data transferred outside the current site for AI processing?
- Yes. Sovi AI sends your questions to AWS Bedrock through encrypted SSL/TLS, and streams back the responses. Only conversation data is transferred. Your business data, transactions, and account information are never transferred.
- How do Sovi AI capabilities ensure that my data is protected?
- In addition to the restrictive policies Sovos maintains with LLM providers, the Sovi AI feature continues to adhere to the existing security practices in place. For more detailed information on how LLM providers secure their platforms, visit the sub-processors list.
- Does Sovi AI impact my compliance with GDPR?
- No. Sovos is committed to helping you comply with GDPR and local data protection requirements. Sovi AI processes and transmits data in accordance with the Sovos Privacy Policy, Data Processing Addendum, and GDPR commitments.
