WinsproutPrivacy policy
For Winsprout (Microsoft Teams app). Last updated 18 October 2026.
Winsprout ("the app") is provided by RuBuild Services, a sole proprietorship registered in India ("we", "us"). In short: we do not receive, store, sell or share your wins or personal information.
What the app stores and where
On your device: the wins you write, your settings (working days, weekly goal, reminder time, the name you choose for reports) and your badge progress are saved in your browser's local storage, so the app works quickly and offline.
In your own OneDrive (optional): if you choose "Back up to my OneDrive", the app saves the same data in a file in a private app folder in your OneDrive (Apps › Winsprout), and Word reports you create are saved there too. This uses Microsoft's sign-in and the Microsoft Graph permission Files.ReadWrite.AppFolder, which lets the app read and write only its own folder, not your other files. It also requests User.Read to show which account you are signed in with.
Talents and talent moments: the talents you add, and a short record of the talent moments you share (title, talent, date and where you posted), are saved in the same places as your wins.
Posting to Teams (optional): only when you choose to share a talent moment, the app asks for these Microsoft Graph permissions: Chat.ReadBasic, Team.ReadBasic.All and Channel.ReadBasic.All to show the names of your chats, teams and channels so you can pick where to post, and ChatMessage.Send and ChannelMessage.Send to post the message you wrote, as you, to the place you picked. The app doesn't read your messages. Any photo you attach is sent inside that Teams message and stored by Microsoft with the chat or channel, like any photo you paste in Teams. Video and audio are shared only as links you provide.
What we receive
Nothing. The app runs in your Teams client and talks directly to Microsoft's services for sign-in and OneDrive. There is no RuBuild server that receives your data, no analytics and no advertising.
Your employer
Your wins are yours. Winsprout doesn't send them to your manager or employer. You decide whether to copy or share a summary or report. Like any file in your work OneDrive, your organisation's Microsoft 365 administrators and policies may apply to the backup file.
Hosting
The app's files are delivered from rubuild.com, hosted on GitHub Pages. Like any website, GitHub may process standard technical data such as IP addresses to deliver files. See GitHub's privacy statement. Sign-in and OneDrive are provided by Microsoft under Microsoft's privacy statement.
Deleting your data
In Settings, "Delete all my data" removes your wins from the device and, if connected, deletes the backup file from your OneDrive. You can also delete the Apps › Winsprout folder in OneDrive yourself.
Children
Winsprout is a workplace tool and isn't directed at children.
Changes
If a future version ever needs to handle data differently, we'll update this page before it happens.
