Summary

As technological and legal circumstances evolve, we are continuing our work to maintain and improve the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy and security practices in order to protect Wikimedia community member and donor information and ensure safe and secure connection to Wikimedia projects and sites.

Goal

Our privacy and security work is three-fold. The programmatic aspects (Privacy) involve safeguarding user and donor information through legal compliance and protective policies, best practices, and trainings; communicating our privacy practices to users and donors; and ensuring that privacy issues are considered throughout the product design process and lifecycle. The core/non-programmatic aspects (Security and Data Management) include implementing technical and physical measures to ensure secure connections to Wikimedia sites and protect data the Foundation holds; improving organizational security posture and architecture; ensuring the Wikimedia projects, sites, property, staff, and fundraising operations remain protected from external threats; and improving data management and practices.
