This policy explains how VOX4 LTD (Vox4, we, us) collects and uses personal information. We are a company registered in England and Wales (company number 17041394), with our registered office at 41 Highfield Road, Lymm, Cheshire, WA13 0DS.

2. When this policy applies
This policy covers information about:
- visitors to our website;
- people who contact us, book a call or ask for a quote;
- contacts at businesses we work with or would like to work with, including our customers, suppliers and partners.
When we provide services to our customers (for example call recording, AI voice agents or webchat), we process their callers’ and website visitors’ information on the customer’s behalf. In that case the customer decides how that information is used, and their own privacy notice applies. Our role is set out in our contract with them.
