Privacy Notice for Air-Gapped Workspaces
Effective Date: December 9th, 2023
This document serves as a privacy notice for users of air-gapped workspaces. These workspaces are isolated from external networks, including the internet, and therefore do not register with Rocket.Chat's cloud services. In this document, we aim to clarify the data handling practices within these environments.
Definition of Air-Gapped Environments
An air-gapped environment is a secure workspace or system, deliberately disconnected from external networks to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access.
