Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026. GumStory is run with respect for your privacy.

1. Data collected

GumStory collects your email address, name (if provided), and usage data necessary to operate the service. When you connect Jira, GumStory stores OAuth tokens to sync your projects and issues.

2. Jira (Atlassian) data

If you connect Jira, you sign in with Atlassian and authorize GumStory through OAuth. GumStory calls Atlassian's APIs only to provide features you use (for example: listing projects, reading issues for dashboards, and creating or updating work items when you request it).

To run those features reliably—and to limit how often GumStory calls Jira—GumStory stores a row-level mirror of issues you have fetched (for example issue key, summary, status, type, priority, assignee, and timestamps) in the GumStory database, tied to your project. The Overview dashboard reads from that mirror; refreshing or certain views updates it from Jira. That data is used only to operate GumStory for you. GumStory does not sell Jira content or use it for unrelated advertising profiles.

Atlassian remains the source of truth for your Jira data. You can disconnect access by revoking the app in your Atlassian account and/or removing the connection in GumStory; use the contact page if you need help deleting associated data stored by GumStory.

Your use of Jira is also governed by Atlassian's terms and privacy policy. Developers integrating with Atlassian products should also follow Atlassian's developer terms where applicable.

3. How data is used

Your data is used solely to operate and improve GumStory. GumStory does not sell or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.

4. Data sharing

GumStory may share data with service providers (e.g., hosting, email) under strict agreements. GumStory does not share your data with advertisers.

5. Security

Industry-standard measures protect your data. Passwords are hashed. OAuth tokens are stored securely.

6. Your rights

You may request access, correction, or deletion of your data. Use the contact page.

7. Changes

This policy may be updated from time to time. Continued use constitutes acceptance. For material changes, GumStory will make reasonable efforts to notify users.
