Privacy Policy — Snapshot Templates for Jira
Effective date: 11 June 2026
Snapshot Templates for Jira (“the app”) is developed and operated by David Lee (“I”, “me”), an independent developer. This policy describes what data the app handles and where it lives. The short version: your data never leaves Atlassian’s infrastructure, and I never see it.
What the app does
The app lets project members save a Jira epic (or a single issue) and its direct child issues as a reusable template, and recreate that structure later inside the same Jira project.
What data the app stores
When you save a template, the app stores a snapshot of the issues you chose to capture:
- Issue field content: summaries, descriptions, issue types, priorities, labels, components, and custom field values.
- The Atlassian account ID of the captured assignee (if any) and of the person who created the template.
- The ID of the Jira project the template belongs to.
That is the only data the app persists. It may include personal data if the captured issues contain personal data (for example, a person’s name in an issue summary).
Where the data lives
Templates are stored in Atlassian Forge hosted storage, inside Atlassian’s cloud infrastructure, scoped to your Jira site’s installation of the app. The app is built entirely on Atlassian Forge and makes no network calls outside Atlassian:
- No data is ever transmitted to me or to any third party.
- There are no external servers, no third-party processors, no analytics, no advertising, and no tracking of any kind.
- I have no access to the templates your team stores.
Atlassian’s handling of Forge-hosted data is governed by the Atlassian Privacy Policy.
What data the app accesses but does not store
To do its job, the app reads from your Jira site at the moment you use it:
- The issues you snapshot (to build the template).
- Display names of template creators (to show “created by” in the template list).
- The list of assignable users in a project (to check whether a captured assignee can be re-applied when a template is instantiated).
These reads happen inside your Jira site under the permissions you granted at install time and are not retained by the app beyond the stored template described above. The app requests read and write access to Jira work and read access to user profiles. It deliberately requests no delete permission — it cannot delete Jira issues.
Retention and deletion
- A template is kept until the person who created it deletes it from the app’s Templates page.
- Uninstalling the app permanently deletes all stored templates, automatically. Nothing is retained after uninstall.
Your rights
Because all data is stored within your own Jira site’s Forge storage and under your organisation’s Atlassian agreement, your Jira admin controls it fully: any stored data can be removed by deleting templates or uninstalling the app. For data-subject requests concerning your Atlassian account data, see Atlassian’s privacy resources.
Changes to this policy
If a future version of the app changes what data is handled (for example, optional features that require new permissions), this policy will be updated and the effective date revised before that version is released.
