Atlassian sub-processors questions

Atlassian has published a list of sub-processors here: https://www.atlassian.com/legal/sub-processors .

However this list of sub-processors seems not complete.  When you use Conflucence, Jira, and other Atlassian sites, data gets transferred to (among others):

  • Google (Google fonts, Analytics, Ads)
  • Launchdarkly
  • Linkedin
  • Facebook
  • Clicktale
  • Vimeo
  • Optimizely
  • Marketo
  • Reddit
  • Doubleclick
  • Bing

Actually the site listing the sub-processors uses all of the above as of today (Monday, November 21, 2022).

I would point out that a lot of those are probably being called by apps, not the core Atlassian systems.

Our cloud infrastructure and architecture for our products is distinct from www.atlassian.com. The presence of references to these services on a www.atlassian.com page does not mean that they are present in Jira, Confluence, or our other products.

Additionally, the definition of a sub-processor in the GDPR specifically refers to access to data. The presence of a cookie or 3rd-party library does not imply that a vendor is a sub-processor.

@Nic Brough -Adaptavist- These services are on the atlassian.com domain, and are not caused by apps.

@Dave Meyer Atlassian.com is required for e.g. login, documentation and the marketplace.  So in effect I would say it is "part of" the Jira and Confluence offer.

Once you install cookies or 3rd party libraries on a website, the vendors (or providers) are sub-processors in terms of GDPR.  See for example the explanation at https://www.simpleanalytics.com/blog/denmark-declares-google-analytics-unlawful which references the original letter of the Danish DPA.

@Dave Meyer , @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- ,

I have found a link where Atlassian says it is using specific external services: https://support.atlassian.com/organization-administration/docs/ip-addresses-and-domains-for-atlassian-cloud-products/

Among these are:

  • Pubnub
  • Wordpress/Gravatar Content Delivery Network
  • Google Hosted Libraries Content Delivery Network
  • Optimizely Digital Experience delivery
  • LaunchDarkly Digital Experience delivery
  • Twilio Segment
  • Sentry.io Content Delivery Network

 

These external services must be declared as subprocessors, if Atlassian uses them in their applications.
