You may be thinking of something else, Slack doesn't have a self-hosted version.
Ahh, looked at it and you're right. They have an "Enterprise" version which seems like it's security conscious.
Still, I stand by my original assertion. I have worked for FAANG companies with completely locked down security that allowed us to use Slack. I would be extremely surprised if their contract with Slack didn't ensure complete data privacy.
We're talking about companies where a product leak makes international news. There is zero chance Slack employees have access to communications.
Sure, even though Slack itself admits so in their privacy policy.
