Who we are

PropBot AI is operated by DIRAYA ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE SERVICES - L.L.C ("PropBot", "we", "us"), a limited liability company registered in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (trade licence CN-6622978). PropBot provides an AI assistant on WhatsApp and a web dashboard at app.propbotai.net that help licensed real estate brokers in the UAE answer property enquiries, qualify leads, share listings and schedule viewings. PropBot is a technology tool for licensed brokers; we are not a brokerage.

This policy explains what data we handle when you message a broker's PropBot-powered WhatsApp number or use our dashboard, why we handle it, who else processes it, how long we keep it, and the choices you have.

02

Our role and the broker's role

If you message a broker's WhatsApp number: the broker (and their brokerage) decides how your enquiry is handled and is responsible for your personal data as its controller. PropBot processes it on the broker's behalf and on their instructions, to run the service for them. You can contact the broker about your data, or contact us and we will help.

If you are a broker using PropBot: we are responsible for your account data — your sign-in, profile, settings, billing and usage records.

The assistant tells you in every conversation that it is an AI, and you can ask for a person at any time.

03

Information we collect

From WhatsApp conversations: your WhatsApp number and profile name; the text of your messages; for photos, documents, locations or voice notes, the record WhatsApp sends us (a reference and any caption — PropBot does not download the files); delivery and read receipts; what you tell the assistant about your search (budget, area, property type, bedrooms, timing); and the viewings you book.

From brokers using our dashboard: account details (name, email, phone and WhatsApp alerts number, brokerage and licence numbers); listings, brochures and photos you upload; your working hours and assistant settings; the connection to your WhatsApp Business account and, if you connect it, your Google Calendar (both access tokens stored encrypted); billing details handled by Stripe (we never see or store full card numbers); and a record of your acceptance of our Terms (time, version, IP address and browser).

Automatically: service logs and technical metadata (timestamps, message status, error codes) needed to run and secure the service. Our logs are designed to identify people by internal IDs and hashed references rather than phone numbers. The dashboard keeps you signed in using your browser's storage; we do not use advertising or analytics cookies.

04

How we use information

We use data to:

  • answer property enquiries on the broker's behalf with an AI assistant, and qualify and prioritise leads for the broker;
  • match enquiries to the broker's listings and send property details and brochures;
  • book, change and cancel viewings, send confirmations and reminders, and add viewings to the broker's calendar;
  • on plans that include them, send a limited number of follow-up messages about your search, set by the broker (at most 20, five by default), if you stop replying (automatic follow-ups are currently switched off); reply STOP to end them;
  • alert the broker to new leads, handoffs and viewings by email, WhatsApp and the dashboard;
  • show brokers their conversations, leads and analytics;
  • process subscriptions and billing;
  • keep the service secure, prevent abuse, investigate problems and fix errors — authorised PropBot staff may read conversations only to support the broker and to find and fix errors — and meet legal obligations.

We do not sell personal data, we do not use it for advertising, and conversation content is not used to train AI models.

05

WhatsApp and Meta

Conversations run on the WhatsApp Business Platform operated by Meta. Message delivery to and from WhatsApp is handled by Meta and is also subject to the WhatsApp Privacy Policy. Messaging a PropBot-powered number is voluntary. Reply STOP to stop follow-up messages (the assistant still answers if you write again), ask for a person at any time, or stop messaging the number.

06

Google Calendar data

Brokers can connect their Google Calendar. PropBot then:

  • reads the free and busy times of the broker's primary calendar (and, for connections made before 25 September 2026 until the broker reconnects, the start and end times and status of its events) only to offer viewing times that do not clash;
  • creates, updates and deletes the viewing events PropBot books, which include the lead's name and phone number so the broker can reach them.

We do not store the content of the broker's other events, we do not use Google data for advertising or sell it, and PropBot staff do not read it except with the broker's permission, for security, or where the law requires. The broker can disconnect the calendar at any time in Settings.

PropBot's use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

07

Service providers

We share data only with the providers needed to run the service:

  • Google Cloud — database, file storage for photos and brochures, application servers, and daily backups kept for 14 days, in the me-central1 region (Doha, Qatar);
  • Google — Firebase Authentication (sign-in), Firebase Cloud Messaging (notifications to brokers), Cloud Logging, Pub/Sub (the queue that passes each incoming message, including the sender's number, to our servers) and Maps geocoding (listing addresses), on Google's global infrastructure, which may include the United States;
  • Google Calendar — for brokers who connect it, as described above;
  • Anthropic — the AI that writes replies and reads brochures. It receives conversation text, the lead's name and phone number, and listing details, and processes them in the United States. Anthropic does not train its models on this data and deletes it within 30 days, unless it is flagged under Anthropic's usage policy;
  • Meta (WhatsApp Business Platform) — message delivery;
  • Resend — alert emails to the broker, which include the lead's name, phone number and a short extract of their message. Processed in the United States;
  • Stripe — subscription billing for brokers; it receives no lead data;
  • Vercel — hosts the dashboard's web pages and receives no lead data from the running service; older deployment files that contained a data backup are being deleted;
  • Cloudflare — our domain's DNS, and forwarding of email sent to support@propbotai.net to our support mailbox.

Data is stored in Google Cloud's Doha, Qatar region, which is outside the UAE, and some providers above process it in the United States. These transfers are needed to provide the service, and each provider is bound by data-processing terms. We may also disclose information where the law requires it.

08

Data retention

  • Conversation and lead data is kept while the broker's account is open, so the broker can serve returning clients. It is not deleted automatically.
  • Brokers can delete leads and conversations from the dashboard at any time, and archive listings.
  • A lead's "DELETE MY DATA" request removes their data straight away (see below).
  • Backups expire after 14 days, system logs after 30 days, and copies held by Anthropic after 30 days.
  • When a broker closes their account, we delete or anonymise its data within 30 days, keeping only records the law requires, such as the Terms acceptance record and billing records.
09

Data deletion requests

You can have your personal data deleted at any time:

  • send "DELETE MY DATA" (or "احذف بياناتي") to the WhatsApp number you messaged. PropBot deletes your lead profile, conversation, messages and viewings straight away, cancels any booked viewings and their calendar events, tells the broker (without your name) and confirms to you; or
  • email support@propbotai.net with the WhatsApp number you used. We verify the request and delete your data within 30 days.

Copies in backups and logs expire as described above. Alert emails already sent to the broker and chats in the broker's own WhatsApp app are held by the broker; ask the broker to delete those.

10

Security

Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and WhatsApp and Google Calendar access tokens are additionally encrypted (AES-256-GCM). Each broker can access only their own data, incoming WhatsApp traffic is signature-verified, and PropBot staff access is limited to what is needed to run and support the service. No system is perfectly secure; if an incident affects personal data, we will meet our legal notification obligations.

11

Your rights

Under UAE data protection law and other laws that may apply, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or obtain a copy of your personal data, and to object to or restrict some processing. If you messaged a broker's number, the broker decides how your enquiry is handled, so you can ask them directly; you can also write to support@propbotai.net and we will help with your request. Brokers can use the same address.

12

Children

Our services are intended for adults and are not directed to anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy. Material changes will be shown by a new effective date on this page.
