What Manager is
Manager is a thinking partner for managers, available as a Slack app. It helps you capture observations, prepare for meetings, build a knowledge base, and manage tasks through natural conversation.
Data we collect
When you use Manager, we store:
- Slack identity — your Slack user ID, display name, and timezone
- Workspace info — workspace ID, name, and domain
- Messages — content of messages you send to Manager (DMs and @mentions)
- Generated data — tasks, notes, knowledge documents, and session metadata created through conversation
We do not collect your email address, and we do not read messages in channels where Manager has not been invited or mentioned.
How we use your data
- AI processing — messages are sent to Anthropic's Claude API for responses. Anthropic does not use API data for model training. See their privacy policy.
- Context and memory — messages and derived knowledge are stored so Manager remembers context across conversations.
- Digests — if you opt in, your task and note data generates daily summaries delivered via Slack DM.
Third-party services
- Anthropic (Claude API) — AI inference. Does not train on API data. Deletes inputs/outputs within 30 days.
- Render — US-based hosting. Data encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest.
- Slack — we read and send messages within the scopes you authorized during installation.
Data retention
Data is retained while the app is installed. If uninstalled, we soft-delete the installation record but preserve your data in case you reinstall. You can request permanent deletion at any time.
Data deletion
Email support@mrdn.dev with your Slack workspace name. We will delete all associated data within 30 days.
Your rights
You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your data at any time. You can uninstall the app from your Slack workspace settings.
Security
- All API communication uses TLS
- Database connections use SSL
- Bot tokens scoped to minimum required permissions
- No data shared beyond the services listed above
Changes
Material changes will be communicated via Slack DM to workspace administrators.
