None of that is private. It's all readable by anyone with an admin account.
As a general rule. If it's not end to end encrypted, assume it's public.
That's missing the point though: if something isn't completely private then it has the chance of going public. Too many services pretend to be more private than they really are by using terms like "private message" when all they're really offering is a relatively small barrier to seeing your data, especially if anyone can set up their own instance.
