Privacy Policy

Website privacy

How ZChat handles information collected through this website.

This policy applies to information submitted through zchat.com, including contact forms, support requests, downloads, and related website interactions. It does not automatically govern how a customer configures or operates their own self-hosted ZChat deployment.

Important distinction

This site

We collect information needed to answer inquiries, process orders, and provide support.

Customer deployments

Self-hosted ZChat instances are operated by the customer, so their own policies and retention decisions control those environments.

Information we collect

We may collect information you choose to submit, including your name, company, email address, phone number, billing details, domain information, support attachments, and any deployment or troubleshooting details you provide in tickets or contact forms.

How we use that information

We use submitted information to respond to sales and support requests, provide download or purchase assistance, process orders, communicate about licensing, improve the website, and protect the security and integrity of our services.

Cookies and site analytics

Like most websites, zchat.com may use cookies, log files, and similar technical signals for session behavior, basic analytics, performance, and fraud prevention. These tools help us understand how the site is used and how to improve it.

When information may be shared

We may share information with service providers who help us operate the business, process payments, deliver email, or support the website. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect rights and security, or in connection with a business reorganization or transfer. We do not sell personal information as part of the ordinary operation of this site.

Self-hosted deployment data

ZChat is sold as self-hosted software. Customer conversation data, transcripts, visitor records, and operational configuration inside a customer deployment are generally controlled by that customer in their own environment. This website privacy policy does not override the policies or technical controls implemented by a customer operating ZChat on their own systems.

Retention and security

We retain business and support information for as long as reasonably needed for legitimate operational, contractual, legal, accounting, or security purposes. We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect the information we handle through this site, but no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be perfectly secure.

Policy changes

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected on this page by posting the revised version.

Owned customer support software

Deploy live chat on your own terms, not on someone else's pricing model.

ZChat gives you the installable server, web dashboard, website widget, and desktop agent tools in one self-hosted product you buy once and keep. Run it on infrastructure you trust and connect AI only if and how you want it.

Deployment

Install on Windows or Linux, behind IIS or Nginx, in a VM, or in Docker if that fits your stack.

Commercial model

One-time purchase, perpetual license, and no monthly per-agent bill attached to growth.

AI Flexibility

Use Ollama locally or connect OpenAI and Anthropic with your own provider accounts.
