Privacy Policy
How Xertone LLC handles information when you use TeamsPIM and related services.
1. Effective Date
This Privacy Policy is effective as of May 20, 2026. We will note the date of any future material changes in Section 12 below.
2. Data Controller
The data controller responsible for personal data processed under this Policy is:
- Xertone LLC, a Texas limited liability company
- Registered office: Plano, Texas, USA
- Contact: see Section 13 below
3. What We Collect
To operate TeamsPIM and meet Microsoft AppSource Marketplace publisher requirements, we collect:
- Subscription and configuration data— your organization's subscription status, tenant identifier, license assignments, and deployment settings managed through the Customer Admin Portal.
- Adaptive card cache state — transient state used to synchronize adaptive card updates across users and tenants. This data auto-expires once the underlying workflow completes.
- Telemetry — usage events and error events required by AppSource Marketplace publisher requirements and used to maintain service quality and diagnose issues.
4. What We Do NOT Collect
We do not collect or store the following categories of data:
- PIM role data — role assignments, eligibility, and activation details are queried live via Microsoft Graph at the moment of request and are not persisted in our systems.
- Passwords or credentials — we never access, collect, or store user passwords or authentication secrets. Authentication is handled by Microsoft Entra ID.
- Teams message content — we do not read, store, or process Teams chat messages or channel conversations.
5. How We Use Data
We use the categories of data described above solely to:
- Operate the service — provisioning subscriptions, routing adaptive card updates, executing user-initiated PIM workflows.
- Support customers — diagnosing issues raised through support channels and proactively investigating service errors.
- Prevent abuse — detecting and responding to misuse, fraud, or activity that threatens the integrity of the service or other customers.
We do not use customer data for advertising, sale to third parties, or training machine-learning models.
6. Cookies & Analytics
The Xertone website and Customer Admin Portal use minimal first-party cookies only, limited to what is necessary to operate the site and remember user-session state. We do not embed third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking pixels on our properties.

8. Third-Party Services
TeamsPIM depends on the following Microsoft sub-processors to deliver core functionality:
- Microsoft Graph — used for live queries of PIM role assignments, activation requests, and related directory data. Graph requests are made in-session and not persisted by Xertone.
- Microsoft Azure— hosting infrastructure for TeamsPIM compute, storage, and networking. Processing is governed by Microsoft's standard online services terms.
- Microsoft Entra ID — identity provider used to authenticate users and authorize delegated permissions.
9. Data Retention
- Subscription and configuration data — retained for the duration of your service term, plus thirty (30) days after termination for data retrieval and reactivation purposes.
- Adaptive card cache state — ephemeral; expires automatically once the related workflow completes.
- Telemetry — retained for the period necessary to maintain service quality and meet AppSource publisher diagnostic requirements.
- You may request earlier deletion of your data by contacting us per Section 13.
10. International Transfers
Customer data is hosted in Microsoft Azure United States regions. If you access the service from outside the United States, your data will be transferred to and processed in the United States. For European Economic Area and United Kingdom customers, cross-border transfers from Microsoft sub-processors are covered by Microsoft's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) as set forth in the Microsoft Products and Services Data Protection Addendum.
11. Children's Privacy
TeamsPIM is a business-to-business SaaS service for IT and security teams. It is not directed to, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from, children under the age of 16. If we become aware that we have collected such information, we will delete it promptly.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. For material changes, we will provide notice through the in-app Customer Admin Portal at least thirty (30) days before the changes take effect. Continued use of the service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.
