FAQ
What can Claude do with my data?
It can read events, sponsorships, orders, and members; generate reports; and answer queries. It can perform writes only if you grant a read-write key.
Is my data shared with Anthropic for training?
No. Data passed through MCP is governed by Anthropic's standard customer data policy and is not used for training.
