Privacy Policy and Terms of Service

Approximatrix, LLC, the owner of WebFortran, adheres to a strict privacy policy surrounding its WebFortran product. Approximatrix does not share any information relating to our users with any other parties.

WebFortran User Privacy Policy

This Policy was last modified on April 11, 2024.

Approximatrix maintains contact information for all users to allow the use of the service. For billing purposes, payment information is stored by our payment processor, Stripe, solely to facilitate subscriptions to the service. We do not share any of this information with others and we do not use any of this information for marketing purposes.

Source code written by end users must be transferred to our servers for compilation. This source code is sent via an encrypted transfer and stored temporarily on disk while compilation is performed. The source code is deleted immediately following compilation. We do not store any source code on our servers. All source code is stored only in the end user's browser's local storage system. Source code is only ever transferred to the server for compilation at the end user's explicit request.

Executables created by the user's request for compilation reside on our server as long as the user is logged in to their WebFortran account. The executable is deleted if: 1) the end user logs out or 2) the end user requests compilation again, deleting any existing executables. Executables created by a user are only accessible by said user.

Given the statements above, Approximatrix does not guarantee the security of user's source code or executables based on the transfers described above. While we strive to secure user's Fortran source code and executables, we do not provide any guarantee that a user's source code or resultant executable will remain private. Approximatrix always encourages users to weigh the risks of transmitting proprietary Fortran source code to any third-party host.
