There is no legal entity. The curl project is just a bunch of people scattered

around the globe with the common goal to produce source code that creates

great products.

great products. We are not part of any umbrella organization and we are not

## Donations
|
||||
|
||||
Donating plain money to curl is best done to curl's [Open Collective
|
||||
fund](https://opencollective.com/curl). Open Collective is a US based
|
||||
non-profit organization that holds on to funds for us. This fund is then used
|
||||
for paying the curl security bug bounties, to reimburse project related
|
||||
expenses etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Donations to the project can also come in form of server hosting, providing
|
||||
services and paying for people to work on curl related code etc. Usually, such
|
||||
donations are services paid for directly by the sponsors.
|
||||
|
||||
We grade sponsors in a few different levels and if they meet the criterias,
|
||||
they can be mentioned on the Sponsors page on the curl web site.
|
||||
|
||||
## Commercial Support
|
||||
|
||||
The curl project does not do or offer commercial support. It only hosts
|
||||
mailing lists, runs bug trackers etc to facilitate communication and work.
|
||||
|
||||
However, Daniel works for wolfSSL and we offer commercial curl support there.
