Terms and Conditions

Last updated: April 30, 2026

These terms govern the subscription to and use of Bota, a conversational AI chatbot for car rental companies that want to automate customer support, booking management, and sales through their website and WhatsApp.

Bota is a B2B SaaS conversational AI product, operated by Zentia Labs LLC. Bota is not a marketplace, does not act as a rental broker, and does not take the customer contractual position vis-a-vis that customer end users.

1. Service scope

Bota provides an AI-powered chatbot that car rental companies can deploy on their website (widget) and WhatsApp to handle customer inquiries, automate booking flows, and manage sales. The service includes an admin panel, escalation rules, messaging channel integrations, and configuration tools.

Available functionality depends on the product documentation, the accepted commercial proposal, and any applicable order form or master agreement.

2. Eligible customer and authority

  • Bota is intended for companies and professionals in the vehicle rental sector, not for consumers as the SaaS contracting party.
  • Anyone subscribing on behalf of a customer represents that they have sufficient authority to bind the relevant entity.
  • The customer must provide accurate information, keep it updated, and designate authorized users for service administration.

3. Account, implementation, and third-party channels

  • The customer is responsible for credential custody, user administration, and the use made of Bota by its authorized users.
  • The customer is responsible for its domains, pages, copy, prompts, chatbot behaviour rules, branding assets, and third-party accounts connected to Bota.
  • If the customer enables WhatsApp Business or other messaging integrations, it must comply with the policies, terms, and technical requirements of those third parties.

4. Data protection and roles

The customer generally acts as controller for leads, end customers, reservations, or conversations that it routes through Bota in its own environments (website, WhatsApp).

Zentia Labs generally acts as processor or technology provider for that operational data (chat messages, conversational content, booking intents), under the customer documented instructions and the applicable data processing agreement.

Zentia Labs acts as independent controller for B2B marketing, onboarding, accounts, support, billing, security, and use of the Bota website or admin portals.

5. Use of AI and human supervision

  • Bota uses language models (LLM, currently Anthropic Claude) to generate conversational responses. AI responses may contain errors, incomplete information, or undesirable outcomes.
  • The customer is responsible for reviewing the chatbot functional configuration, defining escalation rules to human agents, and validating flows with commercial, contractual, or reputational impact.
  • Zentia Labs does not guarantee that Bota automated responses will replace human supervision in every scenario. The customer must ensure that a human escalation mechanism exists where necessary.

6. Fees and billing

Commercial terms for the Bota subscription are governed by the signed proposal, order form, contract, or other current commercial information communicated to the customer at the time of subscription.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, applicable taxes, duties, and regulatory charges are not deemed included.

7. Acceptable use

  • Do not use Bota for illegal, fraudulent, or rights-infringing activities.
  • Do not attempt to bypass security controls, extract unauthorized data, degrade the platform, or interfere with normal operations.
  • Do not use Bota to distribute unlawful, misleading, discriminatory, abusive, or otherwise non-compliant content.
  • Do not configure the chatbot to impersonate a real person or to mislead users about the automated nature of the responses where the law requires disclosure.

8. Intellectual property and license

Zentia Labs products, software, documentation, interfaces, brands, and other product elements are owned by Zentia Labs LLC or its licensors.

The customer receives a limited, non-exclusive, revocable, and non-sublicensable license to use the service during the term of the commercial relationship and in accordance with the contract.

9. Confidentiality

Each party undertakes to protect the other party confidential information with a reasonable standard of care and to use it only for performance of the commercial or technical relationship.

10. Availability, maintenance, and changes

  • Zentia Labs will use commercially reasonable efforts to keep Bota available, subject to maintenance, incidents, and third-party dependencies (including LLM providers and WhatsApp Business API).
  • We may introduce improvements, functional changes, or technical adjustments where necessary for the product, security, or legal compliance.
  • Enhanced support commitments or SLA levels apply only where expressly agreed in writing.

11. Suspension and termination

  • The customer may stop using Bota and request closure in accordance with the applicable contractual conditions.
  • Zentia Labs may suspend or limit access in cases of non-payment, security risk, unlawful use, material breach, or service protection needs.
  • After termination, access may be revoked and data will be handled in line with the contract, privacy policy, and applicable retention or deletion process.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Zentia Labs will not be liable for indirect damages, loss of profit, loss of business, data loss not directly attributable to a breach by Zentia Labs, or outages caused by third parties outside its reasonable control.

Except where liability cannot lawfully be excluded, Zentia Labs aggregate liability arising out of the service is limited to the amounts actually paid by the customer during the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

13. Governing law and contact

These terms will be interpreted under the governing law set out in the contractual documentation signed with the customer. In the absence of a specific agreement, the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, will apply, subject to the competent courts of that territory unless mandatory law provides otherwise.

14. Data Processing Agreement (DPA)

By accepting these Terms, the Customer (data controller) and Zentia Labs LLC (data processor) agree to the following conditions regarding the processing of personal data carried out in the context of providing Bota.

Scope and roles

Zentia Labs acts as data processor solely with respect to the operational data processed on behalf of the customer in the context of providing Bota. The customer retains its status as data controller over such data.

Data processed

  • Chat messages and conversational content (web widget and WhatsApp).
  • IP addresses and visitor identifiers.
  • WhatsApp messages and conversation metadata.
  • Booking data: name, email, phone, dates, vehicle preferences.
  • Booking intents and data extracted by the AI during the conversation.
  • Usage metadata: timestamps, source channel (web/WhatsApp), language.

Sub-processors

Zentia Labs uses the following sub-processors to deliver Bota:

  • Anthropic — language model provider (LLM) for generating conversational responses.
  • Upstash — real-time cache and storage (Redis).
  • Google Cloud Platform — infrastructure, compute, and storage.
  • Stripe — payment processing and billing.
  • Resend — transactional email (verifications, confirmations, notifications).
  • Brevo — CRM and marketing email.

Security measures

  • Encryption in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest.
  • Role-based access control with least-privilege principle.
  • Audit logs and security event monitoring.
  • Periodic review of sub-processors and vendors.

Retention and deletion

Chat and WhatsApp conversations, including their associated AI usage records, are retained for 90 days from the last message. Aggregated analytics that do not contain conversational content are retained for 1 year. Account and billing data is kept until a deletion request is made or as required by law.

Upon request from the controller, Zentia Labs will delete the data within a maximum period of 30 days, except where legal retention obligations apply (Article 17(3) GDPR — open contracts, accounting obligations, legal claims).

International transfers

Where sub-processors operate outside the European Economic Area, standard contractual clauses (SCCs) or other safeguards recognised under applicable law will be applied.

Breach notification

Zentia Labs will notify the customer of any security breach affecting personal data within a maximum of 72 hours from detection.

This data processing agreement is incorporated by reference into these Terms of Service. By accepting the Terms, the Customer also accepts the data processing conditions described herein.
