Privacy policy

TimeInColumn for Jira does not collect, transmit or store your data anywhere except your own browser.

Last updated 28 September 2026.

The short version. The extension talks to exactly one server: your own Jira site. It has no backend, no analytics, and no third-party code. Nobody, including us, can see your issues.

What the extension reads

When you are on a page of your Jira site, the extension asks that site for the issues on screen: when each was created, the status it is in, and its status history. That is what it needs to work out how long something has been sitting where it is.

Those requests go to your Jira site and nowhere else, using the session you are already signed in with. The extension never asks for your password and never holds a Jira API token.

What is stored, and where

What Where How long
Your settings: working hours, holidays, badge thresholds Chrome's own extension storage Until you change or remove them
The address of the Jira site you last used Chrome's own extension storage Until you change it
The date you installed the extension Chrome's own extension storage Until you uninstall
A short-lived copy of issue data, so a board is not re-read constantly Chrome's session storage, in memory Five minutes, and cleared when you close the browser

All of it stays on your machine. If you are signed in to Chrome, Chrome may sync your settings between your own computers, in the same way it syncs your bookmarks. That is Chrome doing it, not us, and it goes to your Google account rather than to us.

What is never done

Permissions, and why each one exists

Permission Why
storage To keep your settings and the short-lived cache described above.
https://*.atlassian.net/* To read issue data from your Jira site and to place the badges on its pages. The extension runs on no other site.

Removing your data

Uninstalling the extension removes everything it stored. There is nothing held anywhere else to delete, and no request to make of us.

Children

This is a tool for people who use Jira at work. It is not directed at children and collects no personal information from anyone.

Changes to this policy

If the extension ever starts sending data anywhere, this page will say so before that version ships, and the change will be visible in the extension's public source history.
