Opting Out

You have the right, at any time, to ask us to remove all personally identifiable information that we hold about you on the system. If you do this, we will remove your user account and associated personal data, but be aware that this information is required to access the system, so removing it will prevent you from accessing any data or services provided.

You also have the right, at any time, to opt in or out of any or all of the following via your profile page:

1. Marketing emails - unsubscribing from marketing emails will not affect in any way your access to the Site;
2. Sprint analytics - these are performance metrics displayed for the team and individual members within a sprint;
3. Comment notification emails - whether the system should send you an email notification when another user comments on one of your sprint notes;
4. Feedback notification emails - whether the system should send you an email notification when anyone provides feedback on one of your sprint notes.

Log Data

Like many site operators, we collect information that your browser sends whenever you visit our Site (“Log Data”).

Log Data may include information such as your computer’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, browser type, browser version, the pages of our Site that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages and other statistics.

In addition, we use the following third party services to collect, monitor and analyze this data in order to assist us to identify application and user issues:

1. Sentry
2. Application Insights

Data Retention

We guarantee to retain your sprint data for at least one year after the completion of your subscription. In the case where multiple people are subscribed, the retention period will be based on the subscription date for the owning account.

After one year of inactivity, we reserve the right to remove your sprint data from the system. If we receive an authorized request to remove sprint data at any point either during or after the retention period has elapsed, we will remove all the data requested.

Your login will not be removed from the system at any point unless either:

1. an explicit request is sent to the support team; or
2. you chose to decline the data protection policy which is accessible from the profile page

Third Parties

In addition to those explicitly mentioned elswehere in this policy, we user the following to provide additional services and functionality.

1. Google - We provide the option for you to use your Google profile photo as your personal avatar with the site. We do not store, use or share any personal information with Google based on this and only access your profile photo if you choose to authenticate with them. You do not have to use this service and can change your Sprintbase avatar at any time within the site.
2. Zendesk - We use Zendesk to provide email support functionality. If and only if you explicitly chose to submit a support ticket we share your name and email address in order to service and respond to your query.
3. Stripe - We use Stripe to provide subscription and payment management. If and only if you subscribe to Sprintbase using a payment card do we share the information needed to verify you and take card payments.

Cookies

Cookies are files with small amounts of data, which may include an anonymous unique identifier. Cookies are sent to your browser from a web site and stored on your computer’s hard drive.

Like many sites, we use “cookies” to collect information. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Site.

Security

1. Authentication and Encryption:
   1. All users of the service are authenticated using an industry-standard mechanism which uses AES 256 hashing algorithms;
   2. All transactional requests to retrieve, add, remove or change data within a sprint are validated using a secure token using AES 256 hashing algorithms which prevents spoofing or unauthorized access;
   3. The service requires strong passwords, and validates the strength of every password before it can be used.
2. Data Transmission:
   1. All data passed between the user’s web browser and the Sprintbase servers is encrypted using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) and HTTPS (TLS 1.2 and AES 256);
   2. All uploaded images and documents are scanned for viruses and if any are found, the file is rejected;
   3. The service implements best-practice Anti-Xss (Cross-Site-Scripting) validation ensuring that none of the input fields are vulnerable to script injections.
3. Data Storage:
   1. All documents and images uploaded to the service are retained in geographically redundant storage which is AES 256 encrypted at rest;
   2. Each customer’s data is held in a dedicated area of storage with access restricted to authenticated and authorized users only.
4. Database:
   1. No user text is ever part of any Database query. All data access happens through proven industry standard ORM (Object Relational Mapping) model abstractions which prevents the use of SQL Injection techniques;
   2. Access to the database is secured so that only connections from the service are valid and all connections are authenticated and encrypted. No external connections can be made to the database.

The security of your Personal Information is important to us, but please remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. While we strive to use best-practice to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
