I would like to pursue the To develop Play SQL development as far as my users need. I meet two kinds of hurdles in this quest:I often have to meet banks, formal institutions and stakeholders which are important to this development. In fact, they are so important they have have the power of go/no go on many administrative aspects of this project. Therefore it is required that I spend hours, day and months to convince them. They ask: “How , I need to convince stakeholders, such as banks, administrations and partners. One of the most frequently questions is "How many users do you have?” The Atlassian Marketplace figures cannot answer this question. They ask: “How many active users do you have?” It is required that I spend time gathering such figures.

The other kind of hurdle is about choosing features. Some features take a long time to support and I should carefully choose what I spend my time at. I need to measure which ones are effectively used and which ones to focus on.

Hence I’ve built in some usage data reporting. This privacy policy will detail the extent and use of this reporting and all other personal information we may collect. You can see them in the add-on itself: In your Confluence instance, click the Help button, then Play SQL.

Information we collect

We collect information to provice better services to all of our users. We collect information in several ways:

Information you give us.

For example, you provide information to Atlassian about the name of your company, the number of users, the add-on you’ve installed and its version. Atlassian makes some of this information accessible to us, which we download and use. Another example is information you give us for technical support, such as the email and user you send from, the date, and the information you send along. You may provide information by subscribing our blogs, mailing list or social network.

Information we get from your use of our software.

We may collect information about the features you use and how you use them. This information includes:

  • Number of users
  • Confluence version
  • Add-on versions
  • Types of connections you have configured (driver, read-only or read-write)
  • Number of queries or tables you have
  • Number of queries you’ve modified in the last month
  • Usage of the extra features on the queries or tables
  • Number of datasources and administrators
  • The Server ID

The information above is reported monthly by e-mail. It is possible to deactivate reporting by deactivating the monthly job.There is other information which we store or which you produce by a side-effect of using our software, such as:

Local storage: We may collect and store information (including personal information) locally on your device using mechanisms such as browser web storage (including HTML 5) and application data caches.

Cookies and anonymous identifiers: The software we use may use various technologies to collect and store information when you visit our websites, and this may include sending one or more cookies or anonymous identifiers to your device.

How we use information we collect

We process personal information on our servers in several countries around the world. We may process your personal information on a server located outside the country where you live.

Transparency and choice

People have different privacy concerns. Our goal is to be clear about what information we collect, so you can make meaningful choices about how it is used. For example, you can:

  • Communicate with Atlassian to check, review or edit some of the information they have about use and that they forward to us.
  • Review the information which is sent by the add-on to us.

We may reject requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort, risk the privacy of others, or would be extremely impractical. We may also request proofs of the information you provide and reject requests if the information is wrong or can’t be proven.

Where we can provide information access and correction, we will do so for free, except where it would require a disproportionate effort.

Information security

...

". Atlassian Marketplace doesn't provide these statistics. To provide the best improvements, I sometimes need to know "Do people use feature X?". And to provide support and training, I need to get in contact with you to make you aware of the last improvements. This privacy policy is dedicated to limiting your privacy exposure and maximizing the benefits you get from the relationship.

Channels of collection

The information collected by Play SQL comes from:

  • The data Atlassian provides:
    • The data in the licenses created by the Atlassian Marketplace, including the biller's contact,
    • Statistics about downloads on the Marketplace,
    • Feedback emails when customers uninstall the add-on,
  • The add-on's self-reporting feature:
    • Usage statistics can be deactivated before the first e-mail is sent (It is a step in the setup),
    • The add-on sends reports by email back to the author,
    • A report are sent after installation, then once a month.
  • The information you provide:
    • The website and the documentation website use cookies, local storage and/or anonymous identifiers,
      • The documentation website uses Google Analytics based on Display Advertising (including Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting),
      • Visitors can opt-out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising and customize Google Display Network ads using the Ads Settings.
    • When contacting the support or submitting issues, you inherently provide informations about yourself.

Use and purpose of the information we collect

We use the information in the following cases:

  • Provide support for the software,
  • Explain features and develop engagement about the software,
  • Provide better services to all of our users, by spending more time tuning or developing the most used features, by developing extensions or new software,
  • We may use information in aggregated form (statistics, etc) for advertising,
  • For legal reasons, to protect the software or when required by law.

This includes:

  • Customers who create an evaluation license are subscribed by default to an "Evaluator Training" mailing list which explains how to use the product week by week,
  • When usage statistics show a problem on an instance, we may contact the customer to provide advice.

Information we collect

We collect information provided through the channels listed above, including:

  • Contact details provided for the evaluation license:
    • Name and details of the technical and billing contact, type and dates of the license, name of the company, location.
    • Note that some information may not be necessary, but it is not possible to choose which statistics are sent by Atlassian: Most often, we throw away parts of the information above, which is not relevant to us, as soon as we get it.
  • From the self-reporting email of the product: Number of users, versions of Confluence and of the add-on, types of connections, statistics about the number of queries and spreadsheets and the usage of features, and the Server ID.
  • From support activities: Name, email, company name, and information you provide explicitly.

How the information is processed - and how we share with partners

The information is processed on servers around the world. This may include servers which are not in your country of residence. In most cases:

  • The web servers are located in France, Canada and USA,
  • The Atlassian servers are not under our control,
  • The author is based in France, so your data may be downloaded and processed on personal computers.
  • We process your information using partners' services. We never sell or provide partners with permission to collect, use or sell your information. Our partners include:
    • Hosting: Amazon, 1and1, OVH,
    • The mailing list you get subscribed to: MailChimp,
    • Marketplace platform: Atlassian
    • Support: Twitter and Google Mail

I can't say whether we provide information to the NSA or the DGSE, but they surely take it anyway.

If you want to reduce your privacy exposure

  • Deactivate the job in Confluence which sends monthly reports,
  • Or encrypt your SMTP channel so the reports are sent securely to Gmail,
  • Ask Google to opt out of their tracking (for example Ads Settings).
  • Unsubscribe to the newsletter when you receive it.
