IV.1. Data processing in connection with the general activity of the Service Provider
IV.1.1. Browsing
The Website may be freely visited and browsed by the User without expressively providing any personal data to the Service Provider. However, when visiting the Website at any time, the User’s computer or mobile device sends a request to the Service Provider. It is like sending a letter to which You wish to get the content of the Website as an answer. The Service Provider can only answer this request if the User provides his/her address. This address is the User’s internet identifier address, IP address for short. The Service Provider sends the requested Website to this IP address. This is an automatic process, by typing the domain of the Website to the web browser or by clicking to a link published anywhere that is directing to the Website the User gives his/her consent to provide the IP address for this purpose and to be processed by the Service Provider. To make this „correspondence” smooth the servers of the Service Provider store the IP address of the User in log files.
The identification and storing of IP addresses is necessary to protect the IT systems of the Service Provider and the Website as well. Protection against possible malicious activities against the Website is partly ensured by that the Service Provider is logging the operation of the Website and in this log, it lists the IP addresses from which requests to its servers were made. If the Service Provider detects an activity from an IP address that interferes with the secure operation of the Website, he addresses will be blacklisted. Any malicious activity is prevented and resolved through legal action. If nothing unordinary occurs, the Service Provider deletes the log files and the IP addresses. IP addresses stored in log files will not be used by the Service Provider for any other purpose and will be automatically deleted within 90 days and we keep it only if the User has performed any prohibited activity from that IP address. These activities are either listed above or other activities that violate local, state, national or international law.

In case the User initiates the migration of the data stored in the software running on its own servers to the cloud-based servers, the data affected by the migration is stored on the servers of Atlassian for a duration of 2 weeks to which the Service Provider has reading access rights in order to facilitate the migration and to avoid data duplication, data error, data loss etc. and in order to avoid the need for the User to clean the data after the migration is completed.
