What OpenClaw does with your messages
Source: OpenClaw's policy for its mobile apps and Chrome extension, which is the only part of the project it covers, read 2026-10-03. Its words are quoted, never paraphrased.
Whose hands it passes through
Somebody carries the message, somebody runs the model that reads it, and where the agent uses a website on your behalf somebody operates that browser. A blank below is not an absence of a company, it is a company nobody has named.
- iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Slack
- OpenClaw Foundation
- Not named
- ElevenLabs
- Not named
- Not stated
What it does not answer
Each of these is a question some policies in this directory answer. The count is how many of the 79 we have read close it.
- whether it trains on your conversations
- the people in your threads who never signed up
- where to report a hole
Silence is not a denial and it is not a promise. A document that does not address the people in your group thread has not agreed to anything about them.
How old this document is
OpenClaw last revised it on 2026-08-02, which was 62 days before we read it. 71 of the 79 policies here carry a revision date at all; the rest do not say when they were last changed, so there is no way to tell whether they describe the product as it ships today.
We have read it 4 times and it has changed 3 times since we started watching, most recently on 2026-10-03. What changed, sentence by sentence.
