        "text": "Treat customer information as restricted business data and connect only the fields the workflow needs. Before using a tool, review its data handling terms, access controls, retention settings, account permissions, and whether sensitive details can be excluded or masked. Context: Run My AI Biz’s guidance stresses secure account connections and owner control over consequential actions. A support workflow may touch names, contact details, order records, billing information, or private messages, so broad permissions create unnecessary exposure. Key factors: - data sensitivity - vendor access - retention and deletion controls - staff permissions - auditability. Practical guidance: Separate public FAQ answers from account-specific data, use test records during setup, and require approval before exporting or changing customer information. Keep an inventory of connected systems and remove access that the workflow does not need.",
