Private deployment
Your permissions. Your infrastructure. Your data.
- Inbound access
- None required
- Nothing on the internet needs to reach your servers
- Permission data
- Stays with you
- Only the license and update checks reach us; see the list below
- Microsoft 365 access
- Used only to read
- Full control, because SharePoint requires it to show permissions; never changes permissions, sharing or content
- Network
- Outbound only
- To Microsoft 365, and to our licensing service
Where it runs
Everything that holds your history stays inside your network
It connects out in two directions only: to Microsoft 365, to read, and to our licensing service, to check the license and offer updates.

What stays, and exactly what leaves
Nothing about your permissions leaves. To check the license and offer updates, a few facts about the installation do. Here is the whole list.
Stays in your infrastructure
Never sent to us
- Who can reach every site, library, folder and file, and where each permission is set
- SharePoint group, Microsoft Entra ID and Microsoft 365 group memberships, including groups inside groups, over time
- Site addresses, the library and folder structure, and file names
- Every recorded change: permissions, sharing links, guest invitations and memberships, and who made them
- The credentials it reads Microsoft 365 with: created on your server, never sent to us
Sent to our licensing service
To check the license once a day, and for updates
| What | Why |
|---|---|
| Your license key | To confirm the license is valid |
| Which installation this is | One license, one deployment |
| Your Microsoft 365 tenant ID | An identifier, not a name: the license covers one tenant |
| The product version | To offer the right updates |
| How many licensed users you have | One number, never a list of people |
Our licensing service never receives permissions, names or lists of people, group memberships, site addresses, file details or audit records.

Private Edition today
Private Edition is the product today: it runs on your servers, with your database.
A hosted edition is on the roadmap Roadmap and does not exist yet. We don’t claim certifications we don’t hold; the security page says what we do claim.
