For example if Elementary, Inc is in the UK. My 2019 (before Brexit) donation could be tax deductible in France (it's quite flexible in France)

But I can't find the info.

elementary, Inc. is a US-based company and is not a non-profit organization

@danrabbit Do we want this added somewhere on the site? near the copyright notice in the footer maybe?

Could do. I don't feel strongly about it. We don't really have a centralized office. I don't think @cassidyjames would like "Made in California" ;) Not sure if it would be lame to do like "Made in the USA 🇺🇸"

I was considering making a super tiny page about the company itself and just linking elementary, Inc. to that. It would not really be accurate to say elementary OS is made in any specific place.

super tiny page about the company itself

Great, at least the entity type and jurisdiction are the most important info[1]. But more info is always better to know more about elementary! :D

[1] Among other info legally required in many countries that expect the website to comply with this if the website is served to the country. Like stuff about data policy for EU's GDPR. But the first step of all this kind of info is the name, entity type and jurisdiction. (IIUC, I'm not a lawyer)

We do have our Privacy page which is probably a more appropriate place for anything required for GDPR.
