Data Sharing from within the CMS

Concrete CMS is free and open source and can be run on just about any server you'd like. Unless you change its source code (which you're welcome to do) your copy of Concrete will periodically contact our servers to see if there's a new version available and get some news from the community. When that call back happens, we do track some information about your site and store that on our servers. This helps us know what versions of Concrete are in use and helps us develop a roadmap of features to serve your needs in the future.

Logo Usage

If we detect you are using Concrete, we might use your logo on our marketing site. If you notice this and don't want us to, just ask
