How WorkingLab collects, uses, shares, and protects information.

EFFECTIVE

WHERE THIS STANDS TODAY

WorkingLab takes no payments and runs no analytics. Accounts now exist, and they are free and optional — nothing on this site requires one, and every Lab and reference is readable signed out. If you create one, your name and email are stored in WorkingLab’s own database, and a session cookie is set on your device to keep you signed in; that cookie is the only cookie this site sets, and it exists for no other purpose. Signing out removes it. The only things stored in your own browser are four markers — which entries you have explored, whether you have finished the onboarding prototype, which outcome you picked for the next Lab, and a platform choice that tailors lesson wording to the AI tool you use. While you are signed out, explored entries stay on that device. When you sign in, positive browser marks are merged into your account and removed from the device after a successful transfer; later explored and unmarked activity is stored as an account history and current progress state so it follows you across devices. Existing account state wins over a browser mark. The platform choice is also saved to your account while signed in. If you explicitly save the optional learning profile, your work role, organization or industry, work description, outcome goals, specific goal, current tools, AI fluency, AI-use frequency, and context-window comfort are stored with your account. WorkingLab uses the selected outcome goals, fluency, and tool overlap to recommend an explainable next unfinished Lab; the free-text work context appears on your account but does not silently score the path. You can edit that profile at any time. The onboarding completion marker and next-Lab pick stay only on the device; the public onboarding prototype remains separate, and its own answers and choices are never saved anywhere. Separately, if you join the founding-cohort waitlist, the email address you enter (and any optional context you add) is stored in that same database so we can tell you when membership opens, alongside which page you signed up from and a one-way hash of your IP address, used only to limit spam. WorkingLab sends a confirmation to that address the first time you join, and a password-reset link if you ask for one. You can delete your own account at any time from your account page — it removes your account, sessions, learning profile, learning progress, platform preference, any billing record, and subscription rows immediately. A founding-cohort waitlist signup is separate, and is still removed on request by writing to hello@carlton.cam. The policy below is written for the membership as it opens.
