In our day-to-day personal lives we're constantly communicating with video but at work we’re still stuck typing words. Loom brings the richness of video communication to Slack.

Video recording, simplified

Bring your work to life. Capture your screen, record your front-facing camera, and narrate it all at once, then instantly share with a simple link to help your team learn about and better understand the great work you have done.

With a human touch

Make your work communication more personal with the nuances of tone and facial expression right in the Slack experience. The Loom App for Slack enables inline video plays so your coworkers can hear your voice and see your face without leaving the Slack experience. Feel free to show a little more of yourself.

Privacy & data governance

Data retention policy

We do not have a data retention schedule or policy that can be applied to individual folders or the Workspace. However, videos have two states: archived and deleted. Users may archive a video, until the user recovers the video or marks it for deletion. There is no expiration date, the video will be recoverable from the archive folder until the user deletes it. Users may also delete a video, which is a permanent deletion and is unrecoverable. The video is removed from our system within 24-48 hours after the user has deleted it.

Data archiving and removal policy

Upon video deletion, the video itself is immediately scheduled for removal from all systems, including any of our storage layers as well as in our caching systems. This action is permanent and irreversible and the video is removed within 24-48 hours. User account deletion results in removal within 24 hours of issuing the request. Some data may exist in our backups (metadata and account data) for up to 30 days after the deletion request has been issued. Once a user account is deleted, personal data and video data are permanently deleted after this 30 day period.

Data deletion request procedure

Admins can remove Loom accounts from their Workspace through their Workspace settings. Removed members will no longer have access to any of the Workspace's content. If you're the only member in your Workspace, you can remove your own account by leaving the Workspace. You can also permanently delete your account through your account settings. ⚠️ Please keep in mind: this action will permanently delete all your videos and is not reversible.
