Atlassian Defaults to AI Training on User Data; Full Opt-Out Locked Behind Enterprise Plan
Starting August 17, Atlassian began using content from its Cloud products — including Confluence pages and Jira tickets — to train its AI assistant Rovo, with data contribution switched on by default. Users on Free, Standard, and Premium plans can disable in-product content sharing, but the option to turn off metadata contribution is restricted to Enterprise customers only. Metadata collected includes task classifications, readability scores, story points, and semantic-similarity signals derived from user activity. Org admins on eligible plans must manually navigate to Atlassian Administration settings to opt out, meaning inaction results in continued data contribution. Critics note that users on the cheapest plans contribute the most data by default and have the fewest controls, making full privacy effectively a paid tier.
