What it is

You own the data and content you put into Atlassian products, and Atlassian owns its software and products.

This analysis describes what Atlassian's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The agreement confirms that customer data ownership remains with the customer, while Atlassian retains intellectual property rights in its products, which is material context for evaluating the scope of the AI data use authorization discussed separately.

Interpretive note: The interaction between customer data ownership and the AI and machine learning use authorization creates interpretive complexity regarding the practical scope of each provision.
