Write the controller before the pilot
For the hosted service, BusyVault is the data controller for account and use data. No street address or tax number is published. Privacy questions go to contact@busyvault.com. If you run the software on your own servers, your team may be the controller. Read that distinction on the GDPR page before you upload a client list.
Ask where it is hosted and how a person asks
List the data the pilot will use, who can open it, and how a person asks for a copy or deletion. Ask for the hosting location and the subprocessor list in writing. The security review is the product page for controls. This article does not certify the setup. security review
Controller, host, and the person's request
On the hosted service, BusyVault is the controller for account and use data. Privacy questions go to contact@busyvault.com. If you run BusyVault on your own servers, your organization may be the controller. Read that split on the GDPR page before a client list goes into the pilot. Ask where the service is hosted, who the subprocessors are, and how a person requests a copy or deletion. The security review is the product page for controls. Message content and files are encrypted with Aegis-128L before storage. This article does not certify the setup.
One list before any client data
Write the data the pilot will touch, who can open it, where it is hosted, and how a person asks for a copy or deletion. On the hosted service BusyVault is the controller and contact@busyvault.com is the address for that question. On your own servers the controller may be your organization. That difference is on the GDPR page. Do not upload a client list in order to discover it. Message content and files are encrypted with Aegis-128L before storage. The security review is where that scope is stated for a buying note. This article is the order of questions: data, controller, host, request path, then the pilot. A certificate is not one of the steps.
Worked example for this guide
Use “Team chat security questions under GDPR” on one project that is already late, not as a policy for the whole company. Write the current file name, the decision and the next owner in the same channel before the day ends. A teammate who was away should find that trio without opening the call recording. If they cannot, the article has not been applied yet. Repeat the check the next morning. Count a written handover as done only when the second person opens the right file first.
Files, history and the next owner
On Team chat security questions under GDPR, keep the file next to the sentence that approved it. Slack documents a 1 GB cap on one upload and, on the Free plan, 90 days of visible history. Those two limits are the public facts this site already cites.
BusyVault bills storage per paid account: 25 GiB on Basic and 100 GiB on Pro. Extra storage is 0.03 USD per GiB a month after you confirm the charge. Basic is 9 USD a month or 86 USD a year. Pro is 30 USD a month or 288 USD a year. One subscription does not cover the team.
The trial is 3 days and 10 GiB. Use it to upload a real file and to search for a decision, not to announce a company-wide move. If the file does not fit or the old decision cannot be found, say so in the channel before you promise the room is the archive.
Where the app runs
BusyVault runs in the browser and can be installed from Chrome or Edge on Windows, macOS and Linux. The Android app is on Google Play and uses the same account. The iPhone and iPad app is coming soon. Enterprise customers can run BusyVault on their own servers under a separate contract. There is no public installer on this site for that path. This page does not claim SOC 2, ISO 27001 or HIPAA.
A check you can finish this week
For Team chat security questions under GDPR, finish four lines and stop. Line one is the project name. Line two is the channel name. Line three is where the current file lives. Line four is the next owner. Add one rule for meetings: what must be decided live, and what must be written down the same day.
Ask someone who was not on the call to find the file without help. If they open the right channel first, the structure works. If they search three threads and still ask which version is current, move the file to the channel and leave a pointer. Owners and administrators can export a BusyVault backup from workspace or channel settings. After a restore, check the text, the file references and who can open them. Keep the original files until that check passes. Product questions go to the address on the support page.
