Data & privacy settings
Manage your data: export it, control retention, configure privacy policies.
Data export
Export all my data generates a JSON file containing:
- Your account profile.
- Memberships and roles per workspace.
- Personal credentials (metadata only, secrets are not exported in plaintext).
- Workflows you own.
- Executions you triggered (last 90 days).
- Comments you authored.
- Audit log entries about your account.
Click the button → Flero prepares the export in the background → you'll get an email with a download link when it's ready (usually within an hour).
Data retention
Workspace-level retention controls (Admin / Owner only):
| Setting | Default | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Execution history retention | 30 days | Older executions are purged on a nightly job. |
| Failed executions retention | 90 days | Often kept longer for debugging. |
| Sandbox executions retention | 7 days | Separate, usually shorter. |
| Workflow file storage retention | 30 days | Files attached to executions. |
| Audit log retention | 1 year | Required minimum on compliance plans. |
| Notification archive retention | 30 days | In-app notifications. |
Lengthening retention increases storage cost and exposure scope; shortening reduces both at the cost of forensic depth.
Cookie & tracking preferences
- Functional cookies, required; can't disable.
- Analytics cookies, first-party only; toggle off if preferred.
- No third-party trackers. Flero doesn't embed Facebook Pixel, Google Tag Manager, etc.
GDPR / data-subject controls
Available under Data & privacy → Privacy controls:
- Right of access, same as the export above.
- Right to rectification, change account fields directly under Account; for changes to data you don't directly control (audit logs, etc.), submit a request.
- Right to erasure, delete your account (Account → Danger zone). For erasure of data within someone else's workspace, contact the workspace owner.
- Right to data portability, JSON export is machine-readable.
Workspace-level data isolation
For multi-tenant deployments, workspaces are isolated at the database level, one tenant's queries can't see another's. Your data leaves your workspace only via:
- Connector calls you've configured (you decide what's sent).
- Workflows that explicitly export (HTTP nodes posting outbound).
- Admin-level cross-workspace queries on enterprise plans (audit-logged).
Privacy policy & terms
Links to the current versions, with a changelog. Significant changes trigger an in-app notification.
Tips & gotchas
- Retention is global per workspace, not per workflow. Need different retention for different workflows? Tag them and use the Log explorer to archive externally before purge.
- Data exports are big. A busy workspace can produce gigabytes; the file is gzipped JSON.
- The "Delete account" path anonymises but does not delete history entirely, audit logs retain pseudonymised entries indefinitely as required by SOC 2 / compliance regimes.
- For compliance-bound industries (healthcare, finance) consult an admin and your legal team before changing retention defaults. There may be regulatory minima.
