Privacy Policy & Terms of Service

Here are some key points about how we access your Slack workspace and your data.

We request permissions only to:

  • Verify your identity
  • Get your timezone for a better scheduling experience
  • Send messages to you privately in Slack that only you can see regarding errors or other state messages
  • Schedule messages in the future.

We won't:

  • Use emails we have access to in your workspace for any purpose other than scheduling messages as expected
  • Store or view any of your message content. Our plugin does not need to store your messages to schedule them in advance. Only messages sent to the app via the /schedule command are parsed. The message ID may be stored for recurring messages.
  • Store any personal information on our database regarding names, emails or other personal information aside from information needed to carry out service expected. That information includes your Team ID, securely generated Access token with relevant scopes, subscription status and Slack User ID if that user has granted the app permission. 
  • Each user must individually give permission for Slack Scheduler to schedule messages on their behalf. 

Please feel free to review the permissions you have allowed our app anytime and delete if you feel necessary. We also encourage you to contact us if you have any concerns. 

 How the App will communicate with you on Slack:

  • The app will only respond to the /schedule command
  • The app will send ephemeral messages (visible only to the user who has initiated a scheduled message) to give feedback on the message that was scheduled or to provide feedback on why it could not be scheduled
  • The app may send messages directly only to the Slackbot of the person who first initiated the account to inform them that their trial is coming to an end or has expired.
  • Aside from the above point, at no point will the app broadcast to channels or direct messages without user instruction.
