Summary
Bulk Textreplacer for Jira ("the extension") does not collect, transmit, sell, or share any user data with the developer or any third party. All data handled by the extension stays on the user's device and is exchanged only directly between the user's browser and their own Jira Server/Data Center instance.
What the extension accesses
- Jira issue content (Summary and Description fields, issue type, hierarchy links). The extension reads this content to perform find-and-replace operations that the user explicitly requests, and writes updated values back to the same Jira instance via the standard Jira REST API. This content never leaves the user's browser except to communicate directly with the Jira server the user configured.
- Jira session cookie. The extension relies on the user's existing authenticated browser session with their Jira instance (
credentials: 'include') to make API requests on the user's behalf. The extension does not read, store, or transmit the cookie value itself — it is attached automatically by the browser.
What the extension stores locally
Using the chrome.storage.local API (data stored only on the user's device, not synced or sent anywhere):
- The configured Jira base URL.
- A history of replace operations performed (search query, field names, replacement counts, timestamps) and a rollback log (original field values) so the user can undo changes.
This data is never transmitted to the developer or any third party. It can be cleared at any time from within the extension ("Clear history").
Data sale, sharing, and use
- We do not sell or transfer user data to third parties.
- We do not use or transfer user data for purposes unrelated to the extension's core functionality (bulk find-and-replace in Jira).
- We do not use or transfer user data to determine creditworthiness or for lending purposes.
- We do not collect analytics, telemetry, or personally identifiable information.
Permissions
storage — used only to save settings and operation history locally, as described above.
- Host permissions (requested per-domain, optional) — used only to send API requests to the Jira instance the user explicitly configures. The extension never requests broad
<all_urls> access.
