Credits

It started as a quick project for personal use. But if it’s useful for me, it can be for others too! And I created this app. :-)
Big up for my friends who beta-tested and made the icon.

Privacy policy

Information collected

When you install /dict, I only collect 2 pieces of information:

• your Slack team name.
• your Slack team identifier.

I do not collect email addresses, usernames, or any other personal information. Nor do I collect the authentication token used to install the application.

Security

I do not store these data on my own: it's posted in a private channel of my private Slack team. This private channel is only visible by me, and I won't ever invite anyone else in it (user or bot).

Use of information

When you use the /dict <code> slash command, I store the <code> used in order to know which languages are the most used.

I do not collect, store or care which words you translate.

Your privacy using /dict

All translations posted by /dict are visible by all channel members the command is issued from. If you wish to use it privately, you need to use it in a private channel, or in the Slackbot channel.
