Atlassian Cloud Compliance

Protect your data

Atlassian has made the EU Financial Services Addendum ("EU FSA") available to European financial services customers making a qualified enterprise cloud purchase. By signing an EU FSA, Atlassian is able to ensure compliance with EBA and BaFin outsourcing regulations.

This is good news for BaFin-regulated organizations as Atlassian now ensures that BaFin and EBA requirements regarding outsourcing of cloud services are met.




Extended rights of financial services clients

The EU FSA is a supplementary contract along with the Atlassian Subscription Agreement which provides customers with additional terms and conditions to guarantee compliance with EBA and BaFin guidelines. Atlassian provides the following additional rights:

- Comprehensive audit rights for the customer and their auditors and regulators at the Atlassian level and downstream for AWS.
- Enhanced record keeping and reporting obligations for Atlassian.
- Commitment by Atlassian to cooperate with customer's regulators.
- Continue to provide services after bankruptcy or termination

Compliance-compliant migration to Atlassian Cloud

The EU FSA applies to the following solutions in the Atlassian Cloud product suite:

- Confluence Cloud
- Jira Align Cloud
- Jira Service Management Cloud
- Jira Software Cloud

This further facilitates Atlassian customers in the financial industry to migrate from their on-premise systems to Atlassian Cloud in a compliant manner.
