That's the intersection of the following sets:

* Small companies.

* With some legal or contractual obligation preventing use of a public IRC server.

* But not preventing use of a third-party outside-the-firewall solution.

* And not having any criteria for the third-party, such as HIPAA compliance, warranties/guarantees, etc.

Seems a pretty small set...

Interestingly, grove doesn't seem to promise not to disclose the archives of your "private" server at all. Lots of ass-covering in their Terms of Service in favor of grove, and they have a privacy policy pertaining to their website, but nothing I could find about not telling the world whatever you happen to send their IRC servers.
