What we read

  • Messages in the channels you choose

Only the reporting window of each edition is read. Paperbeam stores derived facts and short excerpts, not copies of your Roam data, and keeps raw evidence only for your retention period.

Access we ask for, and why

ScopeWhy
chat:readRead messages in selected groups
chat:writeDeliver the paper to a group

All access is read-only. You can revoke it from Roam at any time, or disconnect the source in Paperbeam.

To keep specific people, channels or topics out of the paper across all sources, use exclusion rules and the never-mention list in House style.
