AI in your inbox — without compromising on GDPR or transparency

An unanswered quote

Fictional example — always check Frida’s suggestions against the original email.

  1. The quote was sent

    Quote for a strategy programme — Nordlys

    Hi Louise. The quote is DKK 150,000 excluding VAT for four workshops. We have proposed starting on 5 October. Could you get back to us once you have reviewed it?

    Read the quote and see what the customer is being asked to answer.

  2. See the next step

    The DKK 150,000 quote excluding VAT is waiting for a reply. A 5 October start is a proposal.

    The deal brings together the quote and the planned follow-up. Its timing needs to fit your agreement with the customer.

  3. Your updated overview

    Hi Louise. Have you had a chance to review the quote for the strategy programme? Please let me know if you have questions about the scope or schedule. Best regards, Jonas

    See what still needs the customer’s answer and why the deal needs attention. Open the source email or deal from here.

The email does not prove: That the customer read or accepted the quote. Other conversations may change the picture.

Where your data lives

Frida is built with GDPR from the start. Hosting and storage run on EU servers, and email AI processing happens at a disclosed US-based sub-processor under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and standard contractual clauses.

  • Hosting and storage of all processed data in the EU (Germany/Finland).
  • Email AI processing at a disclosed sub-processor that never trains models on your data.
  • Your mailbox stays where it is — Frida connects to Outlook / Microsoft 365, your own service.

Disclosed sub-processors — no surprises

Every sub-processor we use is listed openly in our privacy policy. Email AI processing happens at a US-based sub-processor — always under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and standard contractual clauses, and your data is never used to train models.

  • Sub-processors, region and transfer basis are described openly.
  • US transfers are covered by the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and SCCs.
  • The complete, current list of sub-processors is in the privacy policy — no hidden links.

Human control and AI Act transparency

The AI Act is partly about transparency, responsible use and human control. Frida is built around one principle: users should know when AI is making suggestions, and nothing leaves the inbox without approval.

  • AI-generated drafts and suggestions are shown as Frida suggestions before you use them.
  • Frida never sends anything on its own — you approve every reply before it goes out.
  • The product avoids prohibited AI purposes such as social scoring, hidden manipulation and biometric categorisation.
  • Internal workflows document AI purposes, providers, human control and known risks.

You control your data

GDPR is not only about where data lives. It is about control. Frida makes it clear what is processed, why it is processed and how you can have it deleted.

  • Full right of access: see what Frida knows, and delete it.
  • Cancel anytime — your data is deleted in line with our retention policy.

Built in Denmark, for European small businesses

Frida is developed by a Danish company under EU law. We built the product for businesses that take their customers’ trust seriously — because our own product depends on exactly that trust.

  • Danish company — Meyer Technologies, CVR 46555929.
  • Support that understands European data protection expectations.
  • GDPR questions answered directly: contact@fridaapp.io.

FAQ

Questions people ask about GDPR and AI Act email assistant

Is it legal to use AI on customer emails under GDPR?

Yes — when processing is necessary to provide the service, data processing is limited, sub-processors are disclosed, transfers are safeguarded and the user stays in control. Frida is built around those principles.

Are my emails used to train AI models?

No. Your data is used to deliver the service to you — drafting replies and building your overview. It is never used to train models.

Is my data processed in the EU?

Hosting and storage are in the EU. The email AI processing itself happens at a US-based sub-processor under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and standard contractual clauses — all sub-processors are disclosed in the privacy policy.

Where can I see Frida’s sub-processors?

The list is published at app.fridaapp.io/subprocessors with location and transfer basis, and changes are announced there. The data processing agreement is annex 1 to the terms: app.fridaapp.io/dpa.

What about the EU AI Act?

Frida is built with AI Act transparency and human control: users know when Frida is making AI suggestions, and drafts or replies are not sent without approval. We continuously document AI purposes, providers and risks so the product can follow the relevant requirements as they come into force.

Can I have my data deleted?

Yes. You can request full deletion at any time, and deletion follows our published retention policy.
