Appfire Technologies, LLC and its Affiliates (“Appfire,” “we,” “us” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy applies to information gathered through the website at www.appfire.com, innovalog.com, botronsoft.com, and any of our mobile applications (individually, a “Site,” collectively, the “Sites“). This Privacy Policy applies to our software applications, which we offer through the online marketplace hosted by Atlassian Pty Ltd (“Atlassian”) at https://marketplace.atlassian.com (“Atlassian Marketplace”).
This Privacy Policy describes how we use Personal Information, how we secure that data, our data retention policies, information about your rights and choices, and how you can contact Appfire regarding our privacy practices.
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding our treatment of your information. If you do not agree with the terms or our practices as described in this Privacy Policy, do not access or use our Sites, Services (defined below), or any other aspect of Appfire’s business.
This Privacy Policy may change from time to time (see Updates to This Privacy Policy). Your continued use of our Sites and Services after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check the Privacy Policy periodically for updates.
The term, “Affiliate(s)” means an independent third party with whom we do business, which may include Atlassian, hosting providers, developers, as well as any entity that we directly or indirectly, control, or are controlled by, or are under common control with.
When we use the term, “Personal Information,” we mean information or data that directly or indirectly identifies, describes, relates to or is reasonably capable of being associated with or can reasonably link to a particular individual, consumer or household.
When we use the term “Services” in this Privacy Policy, we mean:
Appfire may receive Personal Information about you through various means necessary to provide our Services. Depending on the context, “You” may be:
We collect the following categories of information, which may be considered Personal Information when maintained in an identifiable format:
We may also collect non-personally identifiable information that we combine with Personal Information to create aggregate information.
If you submit any Personal Information to us relating to other people, you represent that you have the authority to do so and permit us to use the information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. By submitting Personal Information, you grant Appfire the right to transmit, monitor, retrieve, store and use your information in connection with the operation of the Sites.
We only collect the information reasonably necessary to respond to inquiries about our Services, to provide you the Services, to carry out our operations, as required by law, and for the other legitimate business purposes, under applicable laws, as provided below:
We do not profile visitors to our Sites or collect, in any automated manner, any special categories of sensitive Personal Information about you. No automated decision-making, including profiling, is used when processing your Personal Information.
Additional Uses of Personal Information:
In addition to the uses described above, we may use your Personal Information for the following purposes related to a Customer, Administrator or Authorized User. Some of these uses, under certain circumstances may be based on your consent, may be necessary to fulfill our contractual commitments to you, or are necessary to serve our legitimate interests in the following business operations:
We have implemented privacy and security measures reasonably adequate to preserve Your Data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction including, without limitation, compliance with Atlassian Marketplace privacy and security requirements (presently available here). We use a self-assessment approach to ensure compliance with our privacy statements and verify periodically that our statements regarding our handling and use of personally identifiable information are accurate and reasonably complete in regard to the information covered. Although we work hard to protect your Personal Information, Appfire cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us through online forms and applications, or chat rooms, and you do so at your own risk. Please note that email is considered a non-encrypted (and therefore nonsecure) form of communication, and it can be accessed and viewed by others without your knowledge and permission. For that reason, to protect your privacy, please do not use email to communicate information that you consider confidential. Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be secure at all times. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please immediately notify us in accordance with the HOW TO CONTACT US section below. We will let you know promptly if a breach occurs that may have compromised the privacy or security of your information.
We are not responsible for any outcome if you circumvent any privacy settings or security measures. When applicable, you are responsible for choosing a password of appropriate strength, not reusing passwords used on other websites, and keeping your password confidential. Appfire employees will never ask for your password.
We will retain your Personal Information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy and in order to provide you the Services, and for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you Services and Products. We will also retain your information to comply with our legal obligations, to conduct audits, resolve disputes, and enforce of our agreements.
Our Sites are only intended for individuals who are at least 16 years of age. We do not knowingly encourage or solicit visitors to our Sites who are under the age of 16 or knowingly collect Personal Information from anyone under the age of 16 without parental fiduciary consent. If we learn we have collected or received Personal Information from a child under 16 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 16, please contact us in accordance with the “How to Contact Us” section below.
We are committed to complying with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Our Service is not directed to children under the age of 13 and children under the age of 13 are not to use the Sites or provide any information to our Service without express parental consent. We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under the age of 13. If we receive Personal Information that we discover was provided by a child under the age of 13 without parental consent, we will promptly destroy such information.
California residents under 16 years of age may have additional rights regarding the collection and sale of their Personal Information. Please see YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS for more information.
Appfire receives payment through Atlassian or our Affiliates and we do not retain any personally identifiable information or any financial information such as credit card numbers. Rather, all payments are submitted directly via check or wire transfer.

Verification of Your Identity: Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal Information. You may make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. You must:
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you.
Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us.
Where you have provided consent to process Personal Information, you have the right to withdraw such consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. You may do this by contacting us as set forth in the HOW TO CONTACT US section below.
We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within thirty (30) days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.
If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option.
Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your Personal Information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the Personal Information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
What are cookies and why are cookies used: Cookies are small text files containing a unique string of characters that are stored in your web browser’s memory when you visit a website. When you return to a website that has placed a cookie in your browser, the cookie allows a website provider to recognize that you have visited the site before.
While cookies are often only used to measure website usage (such as number of visitors and duration of visit) and effectiveness (such as topics visitors are most interested in) and to allow for ease of navigation or use and, as such, are not associated with any Personal Information, they are also used at times to personalize a known visitor’s experience of a website by being associated with profile information or user preferences. Over time this information provides valuable insight to help improve the user experience.
How we use Cookies: We use cookies and related technologies (“Cookies”) to provide Services, gather information when users navigate through the Sites to enhance and personalize the experience, to understand usage patterns, and to improve our Sites, products, and Services.
Cookies on our Sites are generally divided into the following categories:
How to Control Cookies: You can review your Internet browser settings, typically under the sections “Help” or “Internet Options,” to exercise choices you have for certain Cookies. If you choose to block all cookies, you may not have access to our Sites, our Services will not function as intended, and you will not be able to log in. If you have blocked all cookies and wish to make full use of the features and Services we offer, we recommend enabling at least first-party cookies. Rather than blocking all cookies, you can choose to block only third-party cookies. This will allow Appfire Services to function as intended. To learn more about the use of Cookies by Google for analytics see https://policies.google.com/technologies/cookies. To exercise choice regarding those Cookies, please see the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

You may opt out of any marketing by us and from the disclosure of your Personal Information to third parties.
Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights: If you are 16 years of age or older, you have the right to direct us to not sell your Personal Information at any time (the “right to opt-out”). We do not sell the Personal Information of consumers we actually know are less than 16 years of age, unless we receive affirmative authorization (the “right to opt-in”) from either the consumer who is at least 13 but not yet 16 years of age, or the parent or guardian of a consumer less than 13 years of age. Consumers who opt-in to Personal Information sales may opt-out of future sales at any time.
Non-Discrimination: If you elect to exercise any of your rights under CCPA, Appfire will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless otherwise permitted by the CCPA, we will not: deny you goods or services, charge you a different price or rate for our goods or services, or provide you a different level or quality of goods or services because you exercised such rights. Under the current definition of CCPA, Appfire does not sell your Personal Information.
Other than as provided above, we may offer you certain financial incentives, as permitted by the CCPA, in exchange for your giving us certain information, which incentives may result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your Personal Information’s value and contain written terms that describe the program’s material aspects. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt in consent, which you may revoke at any time.
