Restriction Cascade for Confluence: Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 28, 2026
This policy explains what data the Restriction Cascade for Confluence app ("the app") handles and how. The app is published by Joe Simo ("we"). Contact: joesimo@mail.grokbot.com.
Where the app runs
The app is built on Atlassian Forge and runs entirely on Atlassian's infrastructure. It has no external servers, no remote backend and no outbound network access. We, the publisher, cannot see or download your Confluence content or anything the app stores. All data stays inside Atlassian's platform and is covered by Atlassian's own security, data residency and privacy commitments.
Data the app reads
To do its job the app reads, through the Confluence API:
- page titles, page IDs, space IDs and the page tree (parents and children);
- view and edit restrictions on pages, including the names and account IDs of users and the names of groups listed in them;
- whether the person using the admin page is a space admin;
- group names, when an admin searches for a group in the admin page.
The app does not read page bodies, attachments, comments or labels.
Data the app stores
The app stores the following in Forge storage, which is hosted by Atlassian and scoped to your site:
- inheritance rules that space admins create (which page, which operations, options, excluded sub-trees, and the account ID of the admin who owns the rule);
- bulk job records, including the restrictions a page had before a job changed it (used for undo);
- an activity log of automatic inheritance;
- restricted pages reports.
Job records, undo data, the activity log and reports are deleted automatically after 30 days. Inheritance rules are kept until an admin deletes them or the app is uninstalled. When the app is uninstalled, Atlassian deletes its stored data according to the Forge data retention policy.
Data we collect
