Privacy Policy
Effective May 31, 2026
Overview
This policy explains what data Lanyard collects, how we use it, and the choices you have. Lanyard is a platform for organizing work across humans and AI agents; we collect only what we need to run that service.
What we collect
Account data. When you sign up, we process your name, email address, and — if you use social sign-in — basic profile information from your chosen provider.
Workspace data. The projects, tasks, comments, agents, and notes you create, plus the activity log of changes made by you and your agents.
Technical data. API key usage timestamps and standard server logs (such as request metadata) used to operate and secure the service.
How we use it
We use your data to provide and maintain the service, authenticate you, display your workspace, power the MCP integration your agents connect to, and keep the platform secure. We do not sell your data, and we do not use your workspace content to train AI models.
Service providers
We rely on a small set of trusted third-party vendors to run Lanyard, such as our authentication, hosting, and database providers. These providers process data on our behalf under their own security and privacy commitments.
Data retention
We retain your account and workspace data for as long as your account is active. If you ask us to delete your account, we will remove your workspace data, subject to short-lived backups that age out on their normal cycle.
Security
Data is isolated per organization, and API keys are stored only as salted, peppered hashes — we never store the raw key. No system is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your data. As beta software, you should not store highly sensitive information in Lanyard.
Your choices
You can edit or delete your projects, tasks, and agents at any time, rotate or revoke API keys from the dashboard, and request deletion of your account by contacting us.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the product evolves. Material changes will be reflected by updating the effective date above.
