Your data in Ireland. Your supplier in Delaware.
Atlassian offers to host your data in the EU. But Atlassian Corporation remains an American company, subject to American law, including the CLOUD Act. The address of the server does not change the nationality of whoever holds the keys.
For data protection officers in the public sector: contracts, public tenders and citizens' data belong under European jurisdiction.
Built in Belgium. Hosted in Europe. Under Belgian law. Mad, isn't it?
European cloud
Your data in European data centres, on infrastructure Klaro Cards has run itself since 2017.
Dedicated instance
An environment of your own, for stricter requirements.
On-premise
On your own premises, on your own servers.

We don't replace Jira. We replace what you were actually doing with it.
Plenty of organisations use Jira to track files, worksites and internal requests. That needs neither 47 custom fields nor a certified administrator.
The escape plan, in 3 steps.
- 01 A 15-minute call We look at what you actually do in Jira.
- 02 A first module within days On your most painful process, running alongside Jira.
- 03 We extend, at your pace No commitment, no notice period. You have until 2029; we are in no hurry either.
Cheaper than a GDPR lawsuit.
No commitment. Change formula whenever you like.

The awkward questions
We have until 2029, why move now?
Because the last renewal is 30 march 2028, and a public tender does not happen over a weekend.
Can we import our Jira data?
Yes: export your tickets as CSV and import them into a Klaro Cards project, where the fields become dimensions. We help with the mapping.
And if Atlassian changes its mind again?
They already have once: a year before this announcement they dropped their "cloud first" mantra. All the more reason not to depend on their next about-turn.
Is Klaro Cards solid?
A Belgian company since 2017, € 750,000 raised in 2025, and customers who have stayed for years.
Where is my data, exactly?
In Europe. Full stop.
Can we install it on our own servers?
Yes. Klaro Cards also runs on your own servers, alongside the European cloud and the dedicated instance. Tell us your setup and we'll work it out together.
