About us
NewPipe e.V. is a non-profit organization. It was founded in late 2022 as a transparent, member-governed legal entity to receive donations in the name of the app NewPipe. The goal of this association is to support technology that enables using digital media or improves access to it, especially if it is free and open source.
- * organize public briefings, conferences or congresses
- * support projects which develop such technology, especially via financial support for their members
- * engage in public relations activities and provide advertising materials for projects
Check our blog to know what we have been up to lately in more detail!
These goals and all other legal regulations concerning the association are written down in our statute, which we link to on this page. We also provide it in the form of a best-effort English translation, but since we are an entity unter German law, only the German version is legally binding.
The organization is governed by the following three board members, elected by members of the association. They make day to day decisions and represent the organization. Every half year, they have a meeting which every member can attend. The meeting protocols are also published in our blog.
