Data residency

Agile Poker for Jira – Planning & Estimation (“App” or “Agile Poker”) offers data residency options. Data residency gives you control over where your in-scope end-user data processed by the App is hosted. In other words, it allows you to choose a defined geographic location for the end-user data.

The data residency option available for the App serves to, in particular:

  • help you ensure compliance with local data protection laws,

  • enhance security by storing data within specific jurisdictions, and,

  • provide users with greater control over their personal information, fostering trust and reducing

    legal risks.

Available data residency options for Agile Poker

You can choose to store Agile Poker in-scope end-user data in one of the listed regions, available from the Google Cloud Platform’s data centers:

  • europe-west1 (Belgium)

  • us-central1 (Iowa, United States)

  • asia-southeast1 (Singapore)

Please note: if you do not choose a region individually, the in-scope End-User Data will be stored in the U.S. (us-central1, Iowa, United States) by default.

Moving data between regions

Agile Poker data storage and processing automatically follows Jira’s region settings, which are managed by Atlassian or your organization. Here’s how it works:

  • If your Jira instance is pinned to a region:

    • When you install Agile Poker, your app data will be stored and processed in the same region, provided Agile Poker supports it (please, see Available Data residency options for Agile Poker, above),

    • If your Jira instance's chosen region isn't supported by Agile Poker, your data will be stored in the U.S. (us-central1, Iowa, United States).

  • If your Jira instance isn't pinned to a region:

    • The location will depend on your Jira instance location. Typically, Atlassian will create your Jira instance in a region close to your location. If Agile Poker also supports that region, it will be used (please, see Available Data residency options for Agile Poker, above). 

  • For users whose Jira instances had been created before a data residency feature for Agile Poker was introduced, the instance location will remain unspecified. In this case, Agile Poker data will be stored in the U.S. (us-central1, Iowa, United States).

Note: Agile Poker in-scope end-user data do not automatically move if you change your Jira instance’s region. For example, if your Jira instance is pinned to Belgium and you later move it to Singapore, Agile Poker data will remain in Belgium.

Once your Jira has moved to a new location, you can request to move Agile Poker’s eligible app data to the same product location (if available; see Available Data residency options for Agile Poker, above).

We fully support error handling and rollback during migration to ensure no data is lost. If you require any assistance, do not hesitate to contact our Support team.
