Jira Jump - Privacy Policy

Last updated: 17 September 2026

Jira Jump is a browser extension that helps you open and search issues in your own Jira Cloud site. This policy explains what data it handles.

Short version

Jira Jump does not collect, transmit, or sell any of your data. Everything it stores stays in your browser, and the only server it ever contacts is the Jira Cloud site you configure.

What it stores (locally, in your browser)

• Your settings: Jira site, project key, chosen filters, and quick links.
• Optional: your Atlassian email and API token, if you choose to add one for access.
• Local state: theme, recently opened issues, and cached field and status metadata from your Jira site.

This is saved with the browser's chrome.storage API. Settings are kept in chrome.storage.sync, which your browser may sync across your own signed-in Chrome profiles through your Google account. Local state is kept in chrome.storage.local and is not synced.

What it sends, and where

Jira Jump sends requests only to the Jira Cloud site you configure (a *.atlassian.net address). These requests read issue details and run searches so the extension can show previews and results. They use your existing Jira login session, or the API token you provide.

Jira Jump has no backend server of its own. No data is sent to the developer or to any third party. There is no analytics, tracking, or advertising.

What it does on your Jira pages

On issue pages of the Jira site you configured, Jira Jump adds a few controls to the page: a diff view of Description changes in the History tab, a Copy button next to the issue key, and an Expand all button in the Activity section. To do this it reads the content of the page you are viewing, inside your browser. Nothing it reads leaves the page. When you use Copy, the issue key and summary are written to your clipboard and nowhere else. Your choice of "Changes only" or "Full text" in the diff view is remembered in your browser's local storage for that site.

What it does not do

• It does not collect or transmit your data to the developer.
• It does not sell or share your data with anyone.
• It does not use your data for advertising, credit assessment, or any purpose beyond opening and searching your Jira issues.

Permissions

• Storage: to save your settings and local state.
• Access to your Jira site (https://*.atlassian.net/*): requested only after you enter your site and grant access, so the extension can read issues and run searches.
• Scripting: to run the extension's own page controls (diff view, Copy, Expand all) on your Jira site, only after you have granted access to it.
• Keyboard shortcuts: to open the extension with a hotkey and to copy the current issue's key and summary.

Removing your data

Uninstalling the extension removes everything it stored. You can also clear it any time from the extension's Options page ("Reset all settings"). You can revoke site access from your browser's extension settings.
