What data enters the system

The following types of data are processed and stored:
  • Conversation data: Message text, images, and documents (document support coming soon)
  • Order retrieval data: Customer IDs, names, and phone numbers required for order lookups
  • Product database: Your complete product catalog

​
How we store data

All data is stored in secure, monitored environments with comprehensive logging. The widget uses 30-day cookies and localStorage elements in the end user’s browser for session management.

​
Continuous aggregation

We maintain only aggregated statistics at the monthly level, such as the total number of messages in a given month. Source data is not retained unnecessarily after aggregation is complete.

​
Configuring retention periods

The default retention period for end-customer support data is 2 years for each widget. If your organization requires a shorter retention period, such as 90 days, please contact our support team at hey@molin.ai to configure the widget. The retention period starts from a ticket’s most recent activity. Once it expires, automated cleanup removes the ticket, its messages, linked interaction data, and linked files from active systems. Failed external-file deletion is retried automatically. An end-customer profile and its notes are removed only after the retention period has elapsed since the last contact and no retained ticket references the profile. The widget retention period doesn’t delete the merchant account, widget, preferences, settings, inbox folder definitions, integrations, product catalog, FAQs, or service documents.
Reducing a widget’s retention period applies to existing data. Tickets already older than the new period can be deleted during the next hourly cleanup, and deletion can’t be undone.
