Data Management Practices
With its various features, External User Manager accesses, processes and stores several types of data:
- Authentication
- Team/Group
- User
- Teams conversations
Here is how we’re managing data for these different categories:
| Data | Accessed | Cached | Stored | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Authentication | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ | Access-Tokens are generated for both Application and Delegated Permission Access-Tokens are cached for up to 45m. Refresh-Token for service user to handle the invite process is stored in the database. |
| Team/Group | ✔ | 🚫 | ✔ | ID of Teams/Groups/Sites is stored in the database. |
| User | ✔ | 🚫 | ✔ | Users data (AAD ID, UPN). AAD ID and ID assigned from the Bot are stored in the database. |
| Teams conversations | ✔ | 🚫 | ✔ | Bot sends messages in Teams and sends Adaptive Cards to users. ID of adaptive Card is stored. |

Microsoft Teams Apps Security And Compliance
To provide organizations with the information they need to accelerate and inform decisions about the Microsoft Teams apps and add-ins they use, Microsoft works with our Microsoft 365 developer partners. This information is supplemented by information from the Microsoft Cloud App Security app catalog and information provided by developers when they submit their apps. This security, data handling and compliance information is intended to help organizations assess and manage the risks of using these apps.
