Mathwise privacy policy

Last updated: 13 November 2026

Mathwise is an app for Confluence Cloud made by Zhaoshen Zhai ("we"). This policy explains what data Mathwise handles.

What Mathwise stores. Mathwise runs entirely on Atlassian's Forge platform. It stores:

• the LaTeX source of each formula, its rendered image and its equation numbers, inside the Confluence page that contains the formula;
• the LaTeX definitions a space administrator saves for a space, and the progress of formula conversions an administrator starts, in the app's storage on Atlassian's platform.

What Mathwise does not do. Mathwise sends no data outside Atlassian's platform. It uses no analytics, tracking, advertising or third-party services, and it does not collect names, email addresses or other personal data. We, the developers, cannot open your pages; the logs described below can contain a fragment of a formula that failed to render.

Where data lives. Data stays in your Atlassian site and Atlassian's Forge storage, under Atlassian's data residency and security controls. When Mathwise is uninstalled, Atlassian deletes the app's stored data 28 days later; formulas stay in your pages as Confluence content.

Logs. Atlassian's platform keeps operational logs of the app's functions, which we can read to fix problems. Mathwise writes page and formula identifiers and error messages into them, including Confluence's error responses when a page update fails; an error message can quote the part of a formula that failed to render. It writes no names or email addresses.
