Privacy Policy – Archived – May 24, 2016

Effective Starting Date: May 24, 2016 (view archived versions)

Introduction

This Privacy Policy was developed by Tempo ehf. and its related entities (“Tempo”, “we”, “us” or “our”) and applies to visitors and registered users of our Websites, our cloud and downloadable software products, our services, and our mobile applications (collectively “Tempo Services”). This Policy describes the information we collect, how it is collected, for what purposes it is collected, how we share it, how we handle the content you place in our products and services, and the steps we take to secure this information.

By using or registering for any of the Tempo Services you consent to the collection, transfer, processing, storage, disclosure and other uses described in this Privacy Policy.

Scope of Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to the information that we obtain through your use of or interaction with Tempo Services, but does not apply to:

* Tempo products or services for which a separate privacy policy is provided.

* Third party products. These are third party products or services that you may choose to integrate with Tempo product or services, such as third party Add-Ons available in the Atlassian Marketplace. You should always review the policies of third party products and services to make sure you are comfortable with the ways in which they collect and use your information.

Unless otherwise stated, our SaaS Products and our Downloadable Products are treated the same for the purposes of this document.

We encourage you to review our Privacy Policy whenever you use Tempo Services to stay informed about our information practices and the ways you can help protect your privacy. Your continued use of the Service after any changes to this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such modification.

Information you provide to us

We collect the following information:

Account and Profile Information: We collect information about you and your company as you register for an account, create or modify your profile, make purchases through, use, access, or interact with Tempo Services. Information we collect includes but is not limited to your name, company name, company address, email address, phone number, job title. You may provide this information directly when you enter it in Tempo Services, or in some cases another user (such as a system administrator) creating an account on your behalf may provide it (most commonly when your company requests that you use our products). If you are providing information (including Personal Information) about someone else, you confirm that you have the authority to act for them and to consent to the collection and use of their Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy.

Content: We collect and store Content that you create, input, submit, post, upload, transmit, store or display in the process of using our SaaS Products or Websites. Such Content includes any Personal Information or other sensitive information that you choose to include (“passively-collected Personal Information”).

Other submissions: We collect other data that you submit to our Websites or as you participate in any interactive features of the Tempo Services, participate in a survey, contest, promotion, sweepstakes, activity or event, apply for a job, request customer support, communicate with us via third party social media sites or otherwise communicate with us. For example, information regarding a problem you are experiencing with a Tempo product could be submitted to our Support Services or posted in our public forums. Any information, including Personal Information, that you submit to our Websites could be visible to the public unless submitted to a secure area in the Website.

Information we collect from your use of Tempo Services

Web Logs: As is true with most websites and services delivered over the Internet, we gather certain information and store it in log files when you interact with our Websites and SaaS Products. This information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses as well as browser type, internet service provider, URLs of referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, information you search for, locale and language preferences, identification numbers associated with your Devices, your mobile carrier, and system configuration information. In the case of our SaaS Product, the URLs you accessed (and therefore included in our log files) include usernames as well as elements of Content (such as JIRA project names, project keys, status names, and JQL filters, and Confluence page titles and space names) as necessary for the SaaS Product to perform the requested operations. Occasionally, we connect Personal Information to information gathered in our log files as necessary to improve Tempo Services for individual customers.

Analytics Information from our Website: We collect analytics information when you use our Website to help us improve our products and services. Analytics information we collect includes elements of Content related to the function the user is performing. As such, the analytics information we collect may include Personal Information or sensitive business information that the user has included in Content that the user chose to upload, submit, post, create, transmit, store or display in a Tempo Service.

As of the date this policy went into effect, we use Google Analytics as our primary analytics providers. To learn more about the privacy policy of Google Analytics, refer to Google’s Policies and Principles. To opt out of Website tracking, click the “Opt our of tracking” button below under “Your Choices.”

Analytics Information Derived from Content. Analytics information also consists of data we collect as a result of running queries against Content across our user base for the purposes of generating Usage Data. “Usage Data” is aggregated data about a group or category of services, features or users that does not contain Personal Information.

Though we may happen upon sensitive or Personal Information as we compile Usage Data from Content across user instances, this is a byproduct of our efforts to understand broader patterns and trends. It is not a concerted effort by us to examine the Content of any particular customer.

Analytics Information from SaaS Products: We collect analytics information when you use our SaaS Products to help us improve our products and services. As with Website information we collect, the analytics information we collect includes elements of Content related to the function the user is performing to help us improve our products and services. This analytics information consists of the feature and function of the Tempo Service being used, the associated license identifier (SEN) and domain name, the username and IP address of the individual who is using the feature or function (which will include Personal Information if the Personal Information was incorporated into the username), the sizes and original filenames of attachments, and additional information required to detail the operation of the function and which parts of the Tempo Services are being affected. You can disable our collection of analytics information from SaaS Products via the Administrator settings described below under “Your Choices.”

Analytics Information from Downloadable Products: We collect analytics information when you use our Downloadable Products to help us improve our products and services. Our Downloadable Products contain a feature that sends information about the Downloadable Products on your systems. Some of the information collected is related to your usage of our features and functions, such as, the number of teams, number of accounts, number of workload schemes, and number of holiday schemes. Some of the information collected is related to the operating environment, such as the JIRA version installed, the name and version of the Downloadable Product, and the customer SEN.

You can disable our collection of analytics information from Downloadable Products via the Administrator settings or by blocking collection at the local network level.

Installer Analytics, Software Updates & License Information from Downloadable Products: During the installation of our Downloadable Products, the installer sends analytics information to Tempo to allow us to understand where in the installation process users are experiencing trouble or dropping out. Our Downloadable Products also communicate with Tempo servers for licensing purposes, as well as to check for updates, and patches. Examples of information we collect for these purposes include the JIRA version installed, the name and version of the Downloadable Product and the server ID, SEN, and IP address of the customer instance.

Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies: We use various technologies to collect information, including cookies that we save to your computer or mobile device. Cookies are small data files stored on your hard drive or in device memory. We use cookies to improve and customize Tempo Services and your experience; to allow you to access and use the Websites or SaaS Products without re-entering your username or password; and to count visits and understand which areas and features of the Websites and SaaS Products are most popular. You can instruct your browser, by changing it’s options, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from websites you visit. If you do not accept cookies, however, you may not be able to use all aspects of our Websites or SaaS Products. We also collect information using web beacons (also known as “tracking pixels”). Web beacons are electronic images that may be used in our Websites or SaaS Products or in emails that help us to deliver cookies, count visits, understand usage and campaign effectiveness and determine whether an email has been opened and acted upon.

Information we collect from other sources

Information from third party services: We also obtain information from third parties and combine that with information we collect through Tempo Services. For example, we may have access to certain information from a third party social media or authentication service if you log into Tempo Services through the service or otherwise provide us with access to information from the service. Any access that we may have to such information from a third party social or authentication service is in accordance with the authorization procedures determined by that service. By authorizing us to connect with a third party service, you authorize us to access and store your name, email address(es), current city, profile picture URL, and other information that the third party service makes available to us, and to use and disclose it in accordance with this Privacy Policy. You should check your privacy settings on these third party services to understand and change the information sent to us through these services.

As such we generate Usage Data (as defined above) from the web logs and analytics logs described above, including the Content elements captured in such logs, as well as from the Content stored in the Websites and SaaS Products.

Information sharing and disclosure

We will not share or disclose any of your Personal Information or Content with third parties except as described in this policy. We do not sell your Personal Information or Content.

Collaboration: As a natural result of using Tempo Services, you may create Content and grant permission to other Tempo users to access it for the purposes of collaboration. Some of the collaboration features of Tempo Services display your profile information, including Personal Information included in your profile, to users with whom you have shared your Content. Where this information is sensitive, we urge you to use the various security and privacy features of the Tempo Services to limit those who can access such information.

Access by your system administrator: You should be aware that the administrator of your instance of Tempo Services may be able to:

  • access information in and about your Tempo Services account;
  • disclose, restrict, or access information that you have provided or that is made available to you when using your Tempo Services account, including your Content; and
  • control how your Tempo Services account may be accessed or deleted.

Tempo Community: Our Websites offer publicly accessible community services such as blogs, forums, bug trackers, and wikis. You should be aware that any Content you provide in these areas may be read, collected, and used by others who access them. Your posts may remain even after you cancel your account.

Service Providers, Business Partners and Others: We work with third party service providers to provide website, application development, hosting, maintenance, back-up, storage, virtual infrastructure, analysis and other services for us. These third parties may have access to or process your Information as part of providing those services for us.

Third party applications: You may choose to make use of third party Add-Ons in conjunction with Tempo Services. Third party Add-Ons are software written by third parties to which you grant access privileges to your Content (which may include your Personal Information). When access is granted, your Content is shared with the third party. Third party Add-On policies and procedures are not controlled by Tempo even though the third Party Add-On may be available through Tempo Services. Third parties who have been granted access to your Content through Add-Ons could use this data to contact you and market services to you, and could share your data with other third parties. This Privacy Policy does not cover the collection or use of your data by third party Add-Ons, and we urge you to consider the privacy policies governing third party Add-Ons.

Third Party Cookies and Tracking Technologies. When you visit Tempo’s Websites, third parties such as our advertising partners and analytics providers use cookies, web beacons, and other technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites or online services. You may be able to opt out of receiving personalized advertisements as described below under “Your Choices.” When you use our SaaS Products, we allow our analytics provider to collect the information described above under the heading Analytics Information from Website and SaaS Products. Our analytics provider may collect information about your activities over time and across different online services.

Compliance with Laws and Law Enforcement Requests; Protection of Our Rights: We may disclose your Information (including your Personal Information) to a third party if (a) we believe that disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request, (b) to enforce our agreements, policies and terms of service, (c) to protect the security or integrity of Tempo’s products and services, (d) to protect Tempo, our customers or the public from harm or illegal activities, or (e) to respond to an emergency which we believe in the good faith requires us to disclose information to assist in preventing the death or serious bodily injury of any person.

Aggregated or Anonymized Data: We may also share aggregated or anonymized information that does not directly identify you with the third parties described above.

With Your Consent. We will share your personal information with third parties when we have your consent to do so.

Information we do not share

We do not share Personal Information about you with third parties for their marketing purposes (including direct marketing purposes) without your permission.

Data storage, transfer and security

Tempo hosts data with hosting service providers in numerous countries including the United States and Australia. The servers on which Personal Information is stored are kept in a controlled environment. While we take reasonable efforts to guard your Personal Information, no security system is impenetrable and due to the inherent nature of the Internet as an open global communications vehicle, we cannot guarantee that information, during transmission through the Internet or while stored on our systems or otherwise in our care, will be absolutely safe from intrusion by others, such as hackers. In addition, we cannot guarantee that any passively-collected Personal Information you choose to store in Websites or SaaS Products are maintained at levels of protection to meet specific needs or obligations you may have relating to that information.

Where data is transferred over the Internet as part of a Website or SaaS Products, the data is encrypted using industry standard SSL (HTTPS).

Where Downloadable Products are used, responsibility of securing access to the data you store in the Downloadable Products rests with you and not Tempo. We strongly recommend that administrators of Downloadable Products configure SSL to prevent interception of data transmitted over networks and to restrict access to the databases and other storage used to hold data.

Your opt-out choices

You may opt out of receiving promotional communications from Tempo by using the unsubscribe link within each email, or emailing us at service@tempo.io to have your contact information removed from our promotional email list or registration database. Although opt-out requests are usually processed immediately, please allow ten (10) business days for a removal request to be processed. Even after you opt out from receiving promotional messages from us, you will continue to receive transactional messages from us regarding Tempo’s Services.
