Each transfer relies on a safeguard recognised by the law of the exporting country.

AI agents and recordings, disclosed every time

You always know when you are talking to an AI agent or being recorded, and a person makes decisions about people.

Remote Pro Ai uses AI agents for scoping, quoting, security questionnaires, voice enquiries in English and Arabic, and sprint summaries. Each agent identifies itself at the start. Calls are recorded only after a spoken or on-screen notice and with your consent; you can decline and carry on without recording.

  • AI outputs, such as quotes and scope drafts, are indicative until a signed document confirms them
  • Our matching model ranks engineers with an explainable score; a person approves every placement
  • AI providers we use process data under zero-retention terms and may not train their models on it
  • You can ask for a human at any point in a voice or chat conversation

How long we keep each type of data

Data is deleted or anonymised at the end of each period unless a legal hold applies.

Frequently asked questions

Book a scoping call

20 minutes with a solutions architect. No sales script.

No. We do not sell personal data, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising. We share personal data only with subprocessors that help us deliver our services, such as hosting, e-signature and payment providers, under written data-protection terms. The full list is in the Trust Center.

It depends on where you are and which Remote Pro Ai entity serves you. Visitors and clients in Saudi Arabia are covered by the Saudi PDPL, in the UAE by the UAE PDPL or DIFC and ADGM rules, in Egypt by the Egypt PDPL, and in the EU and UK by the GDPR. This notice meets all of them.

Submit a deletion request through the privacy request form or your account’s data settings. After verifying your identity, we delete or anonymise your data within 30 days, except records we must keep by law, such as invoices. We confirm in writing what was deleted and what was retained, and why.

Only after a clear notice at the start of the call and with your consent. Recordings and transcripts are kept for 90 days, then deleted. You can ask for a human at any point, and you can ask us to delete a recording earlier.

No. Our matching model ranks engineers using an explainable score, but a practice lead approves every placement, and clients make the final choice. Engineers and applicants can ask for human review of any decision and see the main factors that affected their ranking.

In the UAE (Vercel dxb1 and AWS Middle East) or the EU (Frankfurt), as you choose at onboarding; in-Kingdom (Saudi Arabia) hosting is available on request through a Saudi cloud region. Our teams in Cairo and Al-Khobar may access it to support you, under the transfer safeguards described in section 4. Engagement data inside your own systems follows the residency pattern in your contract.
