Question about your product

Hello Apache OpenOffice,
I have a question and i hope you can help me:
I have recently began using your product and really like it! A friend of mine is interested in your product too. She asked me about it but i was unable to answer a question. She wonders about privacy of your product. Her question basicly was wether you or anyone else can see what she writes? Like it is somehow send or saved without her knowing?
I hope you can help/inform us and many thanks in advance!
Kind greetings,
Rose Langer

Hi Rose.

Apache Open Office is a "desktop application". That is, a program that is
installed in your computer and works in your computer, locally. It doesn´t
work "on the web" neither is it a so-called "cloud" application (like
Google Docs is) which work "on the web" and sends documents to "the cloud".

With Apache Open Office, like with traditional Microsoft Office, what you
write stays on your computer (provided that you save your work files to
hard disk, and don´t e-mail those files :).

Hope this helps.

As for any other program, provided her computer is not hacked into, no one can see her writings.
