FAQ for users

Do I have to act on every highlight?

No. Highlights are information, not commands. If you're emailing a colleague and the text contains their name, that's expected. Leave it. The highlight helped you notice; now you can make an informed choice.

Can I ignore highlights?

Yes. You can always proceed without taking action. BeeSensible supports awareness, it doesn't enforce behavior.

Can my manager see what I've highlighted or how I handled it?

No. BeeSensible records aggregate data like "12 email addresses were detected in Gmail today across the organization." It does not record that you specifically typed something, what you typed, or what you did about it. Your actual text is never stored.

Why do I see highlights in internal messages?

BeeSensible looks at data types, not recipients. A bank account number is sensitive whether you're sending it to a colleague or a stranger. The highlight reminds you it's there. You decide if sharing makes sense.

What if BeeSensible highlights something that isn't actually sensitive?

This happens. A city name might be highlighted as location data when it's just part of a news headline. Use your judgment. If the highlight doesn't apply to your situation, ignore it.

What if something sensitive isn't highlighted?

No detection system catches everything. BeeSensible helps you notice things you might miss, but it doesn't replace your own judgment. If you know something is sensitive, handle it accordingly.

Does BeeSensible slow down my typing?

No. Detection happens in real-time without noticeable delay. You won't feel it working.
