Hi @abias,
Before answering the questions, let me highlight a few facts about the Teams Meetings app.
So to answer the questions:

Hi Lai,
thank you very much for taking the time to compose this very useful information!
Alex
I have raised the following inquiry directly with the Enovation support team, but have been asked to post it in the public here so that it can be answered in the public.
Basically, this plugin works really fine, thanks for creating and publishing it! We have just some questions regarding data protection as the plugin relies on a backend app which you are hosting on https://enovation.ie/msteams. Reading through the docs, I have understood that this backend app is a fork of an official MS solution for self-hosting and you are providing it as an easy-to-use solution for all Moodle administrators. Thanks for that as well.
I have also seen that we would be able to host this app ourselves which just comes with some effort for setup and maintenance. We would like to avoid this effort as long as possible, but as some of our clients are really data-protection-aware, these questions have arisen now:
Can you tell me or point me to some documenation which data (especially personal data about the Moodle users using the plugin and the Moodle instance running the plugin) is submitted from the Moodle instance to your backend app? Of course, I can have a look at the code, but maybe you have a ready-to-paste answer already for me at hand.
Are you offering a data processing agreement for the usage of this backend app which we could sign, similar to how Moodle HQ offers data processing agreements for the Moodle Mobile App? This would help us to tell our customers that their data is save.
Is there any data stored persistently in the backend app or is it just a broker which passes data back and forth? Again, I can have a look at the code, but maybe you have a ready-to-paste answer already for me at hand.
If we start with your backend app and switch to a self-hosted instance sometime in the future, will this trigger any hickups for existing meetings?
Isn't there any possibility to bundle this backend app into the Moodle plugin codebase?
I would appreciate your answer and would like to thank for your effort in advance!
Cheers, Alex
