9. Artificial Intelligence features
Tenzo offers a number of optional AI-powered features, including in-product AI summaries of cards and dashboards, an AI assistant inside the Tenzo platform, and the Tenzo connector for ChatGPT (the “ChatGPT app”). These features are powered by third-party large language model providers, currently OpenAI, L.L.C. and Anthropic PBC.
This section explains exactly what data is sent to those providers, when, and for what purpose. We are providing this level of detail so that you can make an informed decision about whether to use these features.
9.1 When data is sent
Data is only sent to an AI provider when you actively invoke an AI feature. Examples include:
- Connecting the Tenzo ChatGPT app to your ChatGPT account and asking it a question about your business.
- Clicking “Summarise” on a card or dashboard inside the Tenzo platform.
- Using the Tenzo AI assistant inside the platform.
If you do not use these features, no data is sent to OpenAI or Anthropic.
9.2 What data is sent
When you invoke an AI feature, the following categories of data may be sent to the relevant AI provider, depending on the question you ask and the feature you invoke:
| Category | Examples of fields | When it is sent |
|---|---|---|
| Account identifiers | Your Tenzo user identifier, your email address associated with your Tenzo account, the identifier and name of the business you are currently working in | Sent as part of session context when you start a conversation with the ChatGPT app or the Tenzo AI assistant |
| Locale and preferences | Your locale, currency, timezone, week-start day, business reporting periods, and any custom instructions you have configured for the AI assistant | Sent so that the AI can produce answers in your preferred format |
| Business metadata | Names of businesses you have access to, names and identifiers of locations, and any custom location attributes you have configured (which may include financial figures such as rent or target margin) | Sent when you ask the AI about locations, switch businesses, or ask a question that requires per-location context |
| Analytics queries and results | The metric, dimension and filter selections you make, the resulting aggregated metric data for the date range you request, and any cards or dashboards you ask the AI to read, create, or summarise | Sent when you ask the AI a question about your metrics or ask it to build a card or dashboard |
| Manager log entries | The title, body text, date, location and the identifier (typically the email or username) of the employee who authored each log entry you ask the AI to read | Sent only when you explicitly ask the AI to read or summarise manager logs |
| Customer reviews | The review text, rating, source platform (e.g. Google, TripAdvisor), language, review date and the display name attached to the review by the source platform | Sent only when you explicitly ask the AI to read or summarise reviews |
| Free-form input from you | The questions, prompts and custom instructions you type into the AI feature | Sent whenever you interact with an AI feature |
We do not share payment card information, banking details, marketing preferences or session-replay recordings with AI providers.
