Memory in your chats
How Secretary saves and forgets things as you chat, and how to keep a chat out of your memory.
Step 1
It learns as you chat
When you mention your role, a project, a preference or a standing instruction, Secretary may save it, and uses it in later chats whichever model you pick. Say "remember that..." to make sure something is kept.
Noted. I will keep answers in UK English from now on.

Memory updated
A reply that saved or forgot something has a Memory updated chip under it. Hover it to see exactly what changed; press it to open your memory in Account Settings. When you already have 50 notes it says Memory full instead, until you delete some.
Got it, I have saved that your financial year starts in April.
Memory updatedStep 3
Ask it to forget
Tell Secretary "forget that I..." and it removes the note and puts it on your Forgotten list, so it is not learned again.
Done, I have forgotten that you are moving to the London office.
Memory updatedStep 4
Off for one chat
Next to the chat title, Memory on switches memory off for that chat alone: it neither reads nor saves anything. On phones the switch is in the chat's menu. It only appears in your own chats while memory is on in Account Settings.

Step 5
A temporary chat
For a one-off question, press Temporary chat on the start screen before you send. A temporary chat never reads or writes your memory, is not kept in your history, and is deleted when you leave it.

Step 6
Where memory never applies
A chat you collaborate on with others, whether shared from your chat list or started together in a hub, never uses your memory, so nothing personal reaches colleagues through Secretary. Your own chats do, including your own chats inside a hub. Team chat in a hub never uses it either.
