Permanent data storage

All permament data that is written by extensions is stored within the host products infrastructure. No data accessed through the extension (for example work item data or files form code repositories) is transferred and then permanently stored outside of the host products.

Usage tracking

To improve the quality of our products we make use of Microsoft Application Insights. We capture metrics on how fast extensions load, if there are any errors occuring and what parts of our extensions users load and interact with.

For more information about Application Insights please refer to https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/application-insights

Error tracking

To be able to allow for un-interrupted service and to be able to fix bugs as soon as possible we make use of SENTRY for tracking JavaScript errors.

In-App support chat

To make sure our support is always there and available when you need it a support widget powered by Help Scout is used inside the Bravo Notes extensions main UI.

Privacy

We understand the importance of ensuring the privacy of your personally identifiable information. As part of usage tracking we are currently tracking this data to gather insights:

  • User-ID
  • Email-Domain (e.g. @acmeinc.com)

Opting out of tracking

At the moment there is no easy way to opt out of usage and error tracking. We will provide options to opt out of usage and or error tracking shortly.

Blocking calls on our backend

At your request we will gladly add your Azure DevOps account to a block-me list on our backend so that any requests that might have been sent by unintentionally are not being accepted by our backend services.
