TRUST CENTER

Security & trust at Bytera

Transparency builds trust. Here’s exactly how Bytera protects your data, what we run on, and who we work with - across every app we publish on the Atlassian Marketplace.

Built on Atlassian ForgeSOC 2 Type II - inheritedGDPRData residency

Security

Our apps run inside Atlassian Forge - a sandboxed, multi-tenant platform - inheriting Atlassian's SOC 2 Type II certified infrastructure controls.

Privacy

Data minimization by design. We store only what is strictly required to operate, and never your raw content.

Compliance

GDPR-aligned as a data processor, with Standard Contractual Clauses where any cross-border processing applies.

Reliability

Hosted on Atlassian Cloud’s highly available infrastructure, subject to your organization’s data residency settings.

COMPLIANCE & CERTIFICATIONS

Built on certified foundations

Bytera does not operate separate infrastructure that would require its own SOC 2 or ISO certification. Instead, our apps run entirely within Atlassian Forge and inherit Atlassian’s SOC 2 Type II certified controls - with one exception: XPress uses a stateless cloud rendering service (see Subprocessors). Customer content is processed only within Atlassian and, for XPress exports, in-memory on AWS; Pulse additionally reports usage metrics to an Atlassian-approved analytics tool (no content involved).

Atlassian Forge

All Bytera apps are built entirely on Forge and inherit Atlassian’s SOC 2 Type II certified, security-first cloud infrastructure.

GDPR

Bytera operates as a data processor following data minimization and purpose limitation. SCCs cover any cross-border processing.

Data Residency

App data is stored within Atlassian’s Forge infrastructure, subject to your organization’s Atlassian data residency configuration.

DATA PROTECTION

How we protect your data

Your permissions, your say

Apps honor your Atlassian permissions and list every scope they request, and why, on their security pages. Where an app can change content, it does so only as the signed-in user, after that user confirms the change.

Encryption in transit

All data exchanged with Atlassian APIs and any processing service travels over encrypted HTTPS / TLS.

Data minimization

We never persist raw page or issue content. Only aggregated, app-specific data (e.g. scores or settings) is stored within Forge.

Where your data lives

Data stays within your Atlassian Forge environment. XPress’s PDF rendering is processed in-memory and immediately discarded (zero retention).

SyncUp and Spotlight run entirely within Atlassian Forge with no external subprocessors - including Spotlight's AI drafting, which uses Atlassian Forge AI so your prompts and Jira data never leave the Atlassian platform. Pulse processes all customer content within Atlassian (including AI features, which use Atlassian Forge AI) - its only outbound connection is usage metrics to an Atlassian-approved analytics tool, declared in the app manifest with end-user data out of scope.

SECURITY PRACTICES

How we operate

Secure development

Forge’s declarative permission model and managed runtime keep our attack surface minimal. Changes ship through Atlassian’s review and distribution pipeline.

Vulnerability management

We monitor dependencies and the Forge platform for advisories and remediate promptly. Responsible disclosure is welcomed (see below).

Incident response

We have a defined process to triage, contain, and communicate security incidents, coordinating with Atlassian where the platform is involved.

Monitoring

We monitor the operational health of the rendering service. Logs contain metadata only - never customer content.
