Privacy Policy for Jira™ Data Fetcher for Google Sheets™
Last Updated: September 23, 2025
This Privacy Policy describes how the “Jira™ Data Fetcher for Google Sheets™” add-on ("the Add-on") handles your information and data. By installing and using this Add-on, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
Information We Access
The Add-on is designed to operate entirely within your own Google™ and Atlassian™ accounts. We do not have any external servers, and we do not store, copy, or transmit your data to any third-party services.
The Add-on requires access to your Google™ Account to function. Specifically, it uses the following permissions (scopes):
See your primary Google Account email address and personal info: This is used solely to identify you as a user of the Add-on.
Connect to an external service: This permission is required to securely connect to the Atlassian™ Jira™ API on your behalf.
View and manage spreadsheets that this application has been installed in: This allows the Add-on to read your configuration from the sidebar, create new sheets for your data and write the fetched Jira™ data into those sheets.
Allow this application to run when you are not present: This is required for the automated sync triggers to function.
Display and run third-party web content in prompts and sidebars inside Google applications: This allows the Add-on to display its user interface.
The Add-on accesses the following information from Jira™ via secure (OAuth 2.0) API connections:
Jira™ Issue Data: The Add-on reads issue data from your Jira instance based on the permissions of the connected user. This includes issue fields, statuses, and changelog history. This data is used solely to populate your Google Sheet™ as you have configured it.
Jira™ User Information (read:me scope): The Add-on requests basic user information from Atlassian (specifically, your name) to display which account is currently connected in the sidebar.
Jira™ Project Metadata: The Add-on reads project information, such as the list of available statuses, to populate the configuration options in the sidebar.
How Your Information Is Used
The information accessed by the Add-on is used exclusively to perform its core function: syncing data from your Jira™ projects into your active Google Sheet™. We do not use your information for advertising, analytics, or any other purpose. All processing of your Jira™ data happens directly within your Google Sheet™ under your control.
Jira™ data is read from Jira™ and written directly into your Google Sheet™.
Configuration settings are used to build the correct queries and format the data as you have specified.
Data Storage
No External Storage: The Add-on does not store, process, or transmit your Jira™ issue data on any external servers owned or operated by us. All data processing occurs within the Google Apps Script™ environment, and the final destination for your Jira™ data is your own Google Sheet™. The Add-on acts solely as a secure bridge between your Google™ account and your Atlassian™ account.
Configuration Storage: All of your settings for the Add-on are stored securely using Google™ Apps Script's built-in PropertiesService:
Jira™ Connection Token: Your secure OAuth 2.0 token, which proves your identity to Jira™, is stored in User Properties. This is tied to your specific Google account and is not accessible to other users, even on the same spreadsheet.
Sync Configuration: All your field mappings, status selections, and other settings are stored in Document Properties. This means the configuration is tied to the specific Google Sheet™ file, allowing you to have different settings for different sheets. The configuration settings is accessible to other users on the same spreadsheet.
Sharing and Disclosure of Your Information
We are committed to protecting your privacy. The Jira™ Sync for Sheets Add-on does not share, transfer, or disclose any of your Google™ user data with any third parties.
Data Security
We take the security of your data seriously. All data is handled with the following protection mechanisms:
Data in Transit: All communication between your browser, Google's servers, and Atlassian's servers is encrypted using industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS), also known as HTTPS.
Sensitive Data: Your secure connection token to Jira™ is stored using Google™ Apps Script's PropertiesService, which is a secure storage mechanism provided and managed by Google™. We do not have access to this token. All configuration settings are stored within the properties of your Google Sheet™, also managed within Google's secure infrastructure.
Data Retention and Deletion
Your user data is handled as follows:
Authentication Token: The secure OAuth token that connects your Google™ account to the Add-on is retained as long as you have the Add-on installed and connected. This data is automatically and permanently deleted if you uninstall the Add-on or use the "Disconnect" or "Reset All Settings" features within the Add-on's sidebar.
Configuration Data: Your sync settings (such as field mappings and trigger configurations) are stored within the properties of your Google Sheet™. This data is deleted if you delete the spreadsheet itself or if you use the "Reset All Settings" feature.
Third-Party Services
The Add-on relies on the APIs of two primary services:
Google Workspace™: For all its operations, including running the script, creating the user interface, and writing data to Google Sheets™.
Atlassian™: For securely accessing your Jira™ data.
The Add-on does not integrate with any other third-party services.
