3737* **Conversation content goes only to your configured endpoint.** The app sends prompts, responses, files, and tool outputs only to your configured inference endpoint and stores them only on the local machine. If you enable [SSH remote sessions](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/ssh-remote-sessions.md), Claude Code runs those sessions on a remote host, which also receives that content, sends it to your endpoint, and stores it. What happens to that content at the endpoint depends on the provider, as described under [Data handling by provider](#data-handling-by-provider).
3838* **Sandboxed tool execution.** In Cowork, shell commands run in the hardened Cowork VM; file access is scoped to your allowed folders and web fetches to your egress allowlist. For Code sessions, see [Applied as managed policy](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/code.md#applied-as-managed-policy).
39* **Auditable telemetry.** Crash reports and product analytics are scrubbed of conversation and user data before being sent to Anthropic, and can be fully disabled via configuration keys. Independently, you can export session activity to your own OpenTelemetry collector. The export is metadata only by default, with prompt and tool content available as an explicit opt-in. If you turn on [skill scanning](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/extensions.md#skill-scanning), the export also carries records of scan results. A record's summary can quote the skill.

4040* **Centrally managed.** Configuration is delivered through your existing MDM (Jamf, Intune, Workspace ONE, Group Policy), a [bootstrap server](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/bootstrap.md), or the [admin console](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/admin-console.md). End users can't edit a configuration that MDM delivers. They can leave it for standard Claude Desktop by signing in to claude.ai. On Claude Desktop 2.37337.0 or later, a user who signs in to any organization that uses the admin console can move the device to that organization's configuration. To prevent both, set [`disableDeploymentModeChooser`](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/configuration#disabledeploymentmodechooser) to `true` in the MDM profile, as described under [Keep a device on its managed profile](https://claude.com/docs/third-party/claude-desktop/admin-console.md#keep-a-device-on-its-managed-profile).
