Overview

When using ThreeTone’s AI voice technologies, you are required to provide clear notice to end users that:
  • They are interacting with AI-generated voices rather than human speakers
  • Their conversations and interactions may be recorded and processed using AI technologies
  • Their data may be shared with ThreeTone and its third-party service providers
  • Voice synthesis and processing technologies are being used

Implementation

This disclosure must be presented immediately prior to any interaction with ThreeTone’s AI voice features. Common implementation methods include:
  • A separate screen or interstitial page
  • A pop-up notice or modal dialog
  • A persistent banner or notification
  • A verbal or pre-recorded disclosure at the start of a voice interaction
  • Written consent forms or checkboxes
Users must not be able to access or use AI voice features without first being presented with this notice and providing appropriate consent.
In addition to satisfying contractual requirements, this approach promotes transparency and builds trust by ensuring users understand the nature of the AI-powered interaction.
