Read guideQuestions & answers
Common questions about retail & commerce technology.
Can an assistant issue refunds or change orders autonomously?
No action authority is implied. Any write action needs explicit permission, policy checks, confirmation, audit and fallback ownership.
Does personalization require customer data?
It depends on the use case. Data sources, consent, retention and access must be assessed before selecting an approach.
