Privacy Policy

Jira Bulk Edit · Effective Date: July 24, 2026 · Developer: Appcento (David Day)

Overview

Jira Bulk Edit ("the App") is an Atlassian Forge app that helps Jira Cloud administrators bulk-edit issues by updating fields across multiple issues at once.

This Privacy Policy describes how the App handles data when installed on your Atlassian Jira Cloud site.

Data Collection and Storage

The App does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data outside of your Atlassian Jira Cloud site.

The App runs entirely on the Atlassian Forge platform ("Runs on Atlassian"). All processing occurs within Atlassian's infrastructure. The App does not have any external servers, databases, or third-party service integrations.

What the App accesses

  • Issue metadata: Issue keys, summaries, and field values (via Jira REST API) to display in the selection table.
  • Field values: When performing a bulk update, the App reads current field values and writes new values to issues.
  • User information: Assignee and reporter fields are accessed only when updating or displaying these fields.

What the App does NOT access

  • User personal information (names, emails, avatars) beyond standard Jira user references
  • Issue content (summaries, descriptions, comments, attachments) for any purpose other than display in the selection table
  • Project settings or configurations
  • Any data outside the scope of issue fields and metadata

Data Processing

All data processing happens within the Atlassian Forge runtime:

  • Selection: The App queries Jira's REST API to retrieve issue details based on user-selected filters or manual selection. No data leaves Atlassian's infrastructure.
  • Bulk Update: The App reads and writes field values on issues using Jira's REST API through Forge's built-in OAuth mechanism.
  • No external calls: The App makes no HTTP requests to external services. There is no egress from Atlassian's infrastructure.

Data Retention

The App does not store any data persistently. Each operation queries Jira's REST API in real time and returns results to the user interface. No issue data, field values, or update history is cached or stored by the App.

Third-Party Services

The App does not use any third-party services, analytics tools, or tracking mechanisms. The App does not send data to any external servers.

Atlassian Forge Platform

The App is built on and hosted by the Atlassian Forge platform. By using the App, your data is subject to Atlassian's own data handling practices as described in:

Permissions (Scopes)

Scope Purpose
read:jira-work Read issue metadata and field values for selection display and bulk update preview
write:jira-work Write field values to issues during bulk update operations

These are the minimum scopes required for the App to function.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected by updating the "Effective Date" at the top of this document. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
