Definitions
Forge App: An application developed on the Atlassian Forge platform that runs within Atlassian products.
Atlassian System: A product developed by Atlassian that serves as the runtime environment for our Forge app (e.g., Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket).
Administrators: A group defined by the operator of the Atlassian system with special rights to manage Atlassian systems.
Add-on Provider: DevOpsySystems GmbH
What Data is Collected and Stored? Our Forge app does not typically collect or permanently store personal data. Atlassian Forge apps run in a serverless environment, and data processing occurs within the Atlassian infrastructure. However, in some cases, the following data may be temporarily processed:
User Identifications (e.g., Atlassian Account ID): These are permanently stored to establish a connection with other Atlassian products.
App-Specific Configuration Data: Stored within the Atlassian Forge platform.
Log Data: If administrators enable debug logs, the following information may be stored:
Which specific action was performed within the app
Date and time of the action
Context of the action to analyze errors
Where is This Data Stored? Since the app runs on the Atlassian Forge platform, all data is stored within the Atlassian cloud. The exact storage locations are determined by Atlassian and are subject to their security policies.
Are Data Shared with Third Parties? Our Forge app does not transmit any data to third parties. All data remains within the Atlassian cloud and is governed by Atlassian’s data protection policies.
Is User Behavior Analyzed? Our app does not automatically analyze user behavior. Data is only reviewed in response to a support request or for troubleshooting purposes. In such cases, logs can be accessed by the add-on provider.
Who Has Access to the Data and What Permissions Are Required? Access to stored data is regulated by the permission model of Atlassian Forge. Users can only access data for which they are authorized.
How Long is the Data Stored?
User Identifications and Configuration Data: Stored as long as necessary for the functionality of the app. Users or administrators can delete these.
Log Data: These are stored and managed by Atlassian. Atlassian grants authorized users access (e.g., the add-on provider).
How Can Users Delete or Correct Their Personal Data? Since our Forge app does not process personal data (except for credentials used to log into other systems), deletion is generally not necessary. However, if configuration data needs to be removed, this can be done directly within the app or by the administrator.
How Can Users Object to Data Storage and Processing? Since our Forge app does not process personal data (except for credentials used to log into other systems), there is no need for an objection. Users can disable or remove the app at any time to stop processing.
