1. Introduction

Railsware Products Studio, Inc., United States of America company registered office: 118 Coalpit Hill Road Danbury, CT 06810 US (herein “Railsware”, “us”, “our”, or “we”), focuses on assuring that the Smart Checklist for Jira. Enterprise (cloud version) and Smart Checklist for Jira. Free Trial (cloud version) available on the Atlassian Marketplace (the “Add-on”, or “Product”), as well as the general ecosystem provide a safe environment for the Marketplace Add-on pages visitors, as well as Customers and users (herein “Customer”, “you”) of our products.

We are dedicated to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy (herein the “Policy”) applies to the Add-on Marketplace pages and the Add-on itself as a Railsware product and administers the ways we collect, process, and store data. It explains what types of data we collect, how we collect it, and why. The Policy has a direct reference to the Railsware Terms of Service Agreement and applies to it.

Railsware is not established in the European Union, but it may process and store Personal Data of EU and other citizens, who of their free will may submit support requests, provide feedback or perform other activities, which may result in supplying us with their Personal and/or Navigational Information. This Policy also explains how data subjects including the Add-on Marketplace page visitors, as well as Customers and users, may exercise their rights to obtain, access, erase, use and rectify their Personal Information that was shared with us.

2. Add-on’s Visitor and Customer Data

2.1 Data You Provide

We may collect and process the information you provide us when you participate in a Railsware survey, send us an email, submit support and/ or feature request, or in any other way and on your free will deliver it to us. This data may include your first and last name, your email, and any additional information that you supply us with and/or that is required to address your request.

2.2 Data We Collect Automatically

Atlassian provides us with the technical and billing contacts of the Add-on evaluation user or Customer, including their first and last name, the name of the company and the country where it is based, as well as their Jira instance subscription tier, and the Partner name and their email if the latter assisted you with the Add-on integration. We keep a record of this data.

When you enter the Add-on Marketplace pages, we will gather the following data from your device:

We may also monitor your online behavior, including the time of your visit, your online activity on the Add-on Marketplace pages including the URL clickstream, the pages you visited, the time you spent viewing them, and the frequency of your visits. We also collect demographic information about the Add-on Marketplace pages visitors that helps us improve the content and tailor it to their requirements.

We may also collect, process, and store the add-on usage history and statistics. This data helps us manage Add-ons, analyze general online behavior and add-on usage trends, which, in the end, allows us to understand what functionality users expect and require from the product.

We gather this data automatically through the commonly used data-gathering technologies, like cookies, beacons, and others.

3. Types of Information

When you browse the Add-on Marketplace pages or use the Add-on, we may collect some Personal and Navigational Information.

3.1. Personal Information

After you install the Add-on on your instance, Railsware gains access to some Personal Information from the technical and billing contact representative at your company that you earlier provided Atlassian with when registered an account in Jira.

Under ‘Personal Information’ we understand the first and last names, email addresses, the company name, as well as any other information that refers to you or your workplace (business) that Atlassian shares with Railsware when a user installs the Add-on on their Cloud instance.

When you use the Add-on, we may assign a User ID that is associated with the use of the product and your account and is being collected to provide us with the Add-on usage statistics

Personal Information also refers to other information that is available on the internet, such as from Facebook, Linked In, Twitter and Google, and includes any other publicly available data that you previously agreed to share and that is available from other service providers.

3.2 Checklist Contents

Railsware stores checklist contents to fulfill our contractual obligations. We don’t store data about projects, issues, users that are not related to checklists.

We record the time when a checklist was changed and store this data until a user deletes it.

When a user clears their checklist contents, the deleted in this way data is completely removed from the system. 

3.2.1 Data Storage

We use the Heroku platform to run our services and host Postgres DB to store Smart Checklist-specific data. 

Heroku provides appropriate security on environmental, systems, and data levels. Read more about measures they take here.

All data transmission is encrypted with Transport Layer Security (TSL) technology.

The retention period of backups is four (4) days. This allows us to roll back to a specific point in time, when necessary.

We take the appropriate measures in order to ensure a high level of checklist content security.

3.3 Navigational Information

‘Navigational Information’ refers to your computer and your visits to the Marketplace pages such as your geographical location, browser type, source, length of visit, and pages viewed.

When you browse the Marketplace pages, we may also collect a Client ID that is assigned to your browser but refer to neither your account nor your Personal Data.
