Start with clear membership
A private workspace should have an understandable boundary: who belongs, who can invite others, and what happens when someone no longer needs access.
Use private channels deliberately
Not every conversation needs to be locked. Private channels are most useful for sensitive client work, leadership discussions, or projects with a limited group.
- Confirm the member list before sharing files.
- Keep channel names clear.
- Review access when a project changes.
Privacy should follow the content
Restricting the messages is not enough if related files, summaries, or tasks become visible elsewhere. The same channel boundary should apply to the content created from that conversation.
Keep the model understandable
Small teams benefit from simple rules they can explain without a manual. Tandello uses invite-only workspaces and locked channels so the boundary is visible where people work.
