Every AI tool you connect gets its own token with the permissions you choose — read, write, delete, and exactly which collections it can see. Secure collections are never exposed, delete stays off unless you grant it, and every clip a tool searches, reads, saves, moves, or deletes — plus anything it was denied — is written to an access log you can review or clear at any time.

Read our Privacy Policy for more details.
