Data Retention Policy

Effective October 1, 2026

How long Expedition Labs keeps each kind of data on this website and in Meeting Mouse for Slack.

What this policy covers

This policy covers the two places Expedition Labs handles data: this website, expeditionlabs.co, and Meeting Mouse, the availability poll app for Slack that we run at app.meetingmouse.net. Work we do for a client is covered by the written agreement for that engagement.

The rule behind every period below: we keep data for as long as it is needed to provide the service, and then we delete it.

Meeting Mouse

DataKept for
A poll, with the times it offers and everyone who answeredUntil 12 months after the poll is closed or its final time is picked
A poll that nobody closedUntil 12 months after the last time the poll offered
The stored copy of a person's display name and time zoneUntil 12 months after the app last read them from Slack
The workspace's installation record and its encrypted access tokenUntil the workspace removes the app
The cookie set while the app is being added to a workspace10 minutes

Three things end a period early. A poll's organizer can delete the poll at any time, which removes it with every answer on it. A workspace that removes the app has everything stored for it deleted at once. A person can ask us to delete their answers and their stored name and time zone.

Records held by our providers

Our hosting provider records each web request in a log, with details such as the time, the address requested and the IP address. Our database provider keeps a restore history of the database for a rolling window of at most 30 days. Both expire on the provider's schedule, and data we delete leaves the restore history when that window passes.

How the periods are enforced

A scheduled job runs once a day and deletes Meeting Mouse data that has passed its period. Deletion on removing the app happens as soon as Slack tells the app it was removed.

Changes

When a period changes, this page is updated and given a new effective date.
