If you scroll to the bottom of the Ask LibreOffice site and click “private policy”, it leads to a German legal document on the DocumentFoundation.org website. It looks a bit out of place, being on an otherwise English website. Did LibreOffice originate from Germany or something like that? Who wrote this document, and when was the last time it was updated? What’s the story here?
This is just something I’ve been wondering about.
LibreOffice is governed by The Document Foundation (the site of which you have mentioned), and the first sentence of its home page (the one that doesn’t require you to scroll down ;-)) tells you (emphasis mine):
It is an independent self-governing meritocratic entity, created by a large group of Free Software advocates, in the form of a charitable Foundation under German law (gemeinnützige rechtsfähige Stiftung des bürgerlichen Rechts).
So, being a German foundation, all its legal documents are in German. The privacy policy is one of those legal (binding) documents.
The “story” behind being a German foundation has its roots in the time when LibreOffice was forked from OOo, and the group of people behind it considered different opportunities (including different countries/legislations) and their stability, record of other projects and their problems and how they solved them, etc. The steering committee had come to the conclusion that “… a foundation based in Germany would provide the best stability, not only for our users, but also for adopters, developers and enterprises”.
And now the German-language privacy policy page also points to English translation provided for the convenience.
We are actually working on a translation of this (just as we did for the statutes many years ago). It’s work in progress and currently under review, sorry for the delay here.
Not difficult to translate. Google gives this -
