Last updated: November 2026, Colombian Law 1581 of 2012 + Decree 1377 of 2013 + GDPR
Back to home“Musha Security” (“Musha”, “we”) operates, under the laws of the Republic of Colombia, the vulnerability detection platform available at mushasec.com and app.mushasec.com. This policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the rights you have over it. It is written to comply with Colombia’s Law 1581 of 2012 and its regulatory Decree 1377 of 2013, as well as the EU’s GDPR for users in the European Economic Area.
01. Data controller
| Commercial name | Musha Security |
| Address | Bogotá D.C., Colombia |
| Website | mushasec.com |
| Privacy email | [email protected] |
| Legal email / notifications | [email protected] |
The full legal identification of the controller (legal name, registrations, tax ID, physical address) is provided in writing to customers who sign a Service contract, to data subjects exercising Habeas Data rights before authorities, or to competent authorities (SIC, DIAN, courts) upon written request to [email protected].
02. Personal data we collect
A. From registered users (Customer):
- Name, email, profile photo (provided at signup)
- Organization you belong to and your role (owner / admin / member)
- Activity data: login timestamps, actions performed on the platform, source IP
- Configuration preferences (notifications, plan, language)
B. From service operation:
- OAuth tokens from your integrations (GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Bitbucket), encrypted with AES-256-GCM at rest
- Repository URLs, branch names, pull request identifiers
- Detected vulnerability findings (file path, line number, rule identifier, severity). We do not store source code.
- When someone in your organization opens a finding, the token you granted reads the lines around it. Those lines are not stored, each read is logged, and an administrator can turn this off.
- Audit log of all actions (who did what and when)
C. For billing:
- Billing information processed by an authorized third party acting as seller to the Customer (name, address, country). Musha does not directly store card data.
- Subscription status (plan, billing cycle, next billing date)
D. From website visitors:
- Enterprise contact form data (name, corporate email, team size, message)
- Browsing data collected automatically (IP, user agent, pages visited)
E. Sensitive data:
Musha does not collect sensitive data as defined in Article 5 of Colombian Law 1581 of 2012 (health data, sexual orientation, political ideology, religious beliefs, biometric data, etc.). If we ever need to collect any in the future, we will request your express and separate authorization, clearly indicating which sensitive data and for what purpose.
03. Data subject authorization

This authorization can be revoked at any time by writing to [email protected]. Revocation will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent prior to revocation, but will imply termination of the Service if processing is essential to providing it.
