Privacy Policy


The Wolfram Foundation understands your concerns about how personally identifying information is used and shared, and we endeavor to use such information carefully and sensibly.

The information we obtain from site participants and visitors helps us enhance and refine our service and content. In addition to information that you provide to us voluntarily, we also receive information whenever you interact with our websites (such as your IP address, connection information, browser type, and so forth).

Information about our users is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of selling it to others. If you opt to allow us to share your information, we will do so only with Wolfram Foundation partners who also respect privacy concerns.

If you choose to receive communication from The Wolfram Foundation, we may send you email describing special offers or services. If at any time you want to stop receiving communication from us, please click the unsubscribe link in the footer of any email message from us.

We may release personally identifying information when we believe release is appropriate in order to comply with law; enforce our Terms of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of The Wolfram Foundation, our users, or others.

When you visit our websites, we, like most websites, send one or more cookies—small anonymous identifiers—to your computer that uniquely identify your browser. While we do use cookies for security and fraud investigation purposes, our primary purpose is to enhance your user experience by understanding and remembering your preferences and by general tracking of our user trends. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can configure your browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or to notify you when a cookie is sent. Please be aware that some of our features and services may not have full functionality if your browser refuses cookies.

We may update or modify this Privacy Policy from time to time in the future. Any such updates or modifications shall be effective immediately upon their posting. Please refer back to this page often for the latest information.

We collect and hold personal data about our customers, users and enthusiasts, employees and others in the European Union who access our resources and services in a manner consistent with the lawful bases as outlined in the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Please see the Data Retention Policy Addendum to Wolfram's Privacy Policies, which outlines our GDPR compliance in collecting, processing and using your personal data. It also describes how you can contact us to review any personal data and withdraw any consent you have given us to store it.

For information on policies related to the use of our software, see the Mathematica Privacy Policy and Mathematica Player Privacy Policy.
