Privacy & Data Handling

Your Data, Protected

  • One-way notifications only. MCO sends notifications to Slack. No data, messages, or actions from Slack are transmitted back to the MCO platform.
  • No Slack workspace data is stored. MCO does not read, store, or process messages, files, or content from your Slack workspace.
  • User email matching with consent. MCO uses Slack user email addresses solely to match users with their MCO accounts for notification delivery. Explicit consent is obtained before any user data is accessed or processed.
  • Encrypted in transit and at rest. All data transmitted between MCO and Slack is encrypted using TLS 1.2+. Stored data is encrypted at rest.
  • Data deletion requests. To request access, transfer, or deletion of your data, contact support@mycomplianceoffice.com or visit our privacy policy.
