We never sell, license, or share your manuscripts or creative content with third parties.
Your content is never used to train AI models — ours or anyone else's.
You can take your work with you or erase everything, at any time, no questions asked.
Here's everything we collect, organized plainly:
| Category | What it is | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Account info | Email address, display name (optional), hashed password | Create and secure your account |
| Writing content | Chapters, characters, world-building, arcs, themes, storyboards, timelines | Store and display your projects |
| Usage data | Pages visited, features used, session duration, browser/device type, referrer URL | Understand how the product is used; improve it |
| Technical data | IP address, HTTP request logs, error reports | Operate and secure the service; debug issues |
| Communications | Emails you send to us | Respond to support and feedback |
We don't collect payment card data (processed directly by our payment provider) or government-issued IDs.
Your account information and writing content are used to operate Conscriva: authenticating you, storing your projects, syncing across sessions, and presenting your work back to you.
Aggregated, anonymized usage data helps us understand which features are valuable, where users get stuck, and what to build next. This is patterns like "50% of users visit Consistency Checker within a week" — not reading your manuscripts.
We use your email address for: account-related notifications (password resets, major policy changes), product updates (infrequent, only when meaningful), and responses to your support requests. You can opt out of product emails at any time.
Technical logs help us detect abuse, investigate security incidents, and maintain service reliability.
This section specifically covers how AI features interact with your writing content.
When you use the Consistency Checker or "What's Next?" Advisor, relevant portions of your project (characters, world rules, chapters, arcs) are assembled into a prompt and sent to an AI model for analysis. The response is returned to you. This is a transactional operation — the data is processed in flight to generate the answer, then the transaction ends.
Your writing content is not persisted in any AI provider's systems. We do not send content to AI providers in ways that allow them to retain or train on it. Our AI provider agreements include data processing terms that prohibit using customer data for model training.
Conscriva does not use your creative work to train, fine-tune, or improve AI models — ours or anyone else's. Your unpublished manuscript is not a training corpus.
All AI features in Conscriva require your explicit action. The consistency checker only runs when you click "Run Check." The advisor only generates suggestions when you request them. Nothing is processed automatically in the background without your knowledge.
Conscriva does not sell, rent, or trade personal data or creative content to any third party. Full stop.
We use a small number of trusted service providers to operate the service:
These providers operate under contracts that limit how they can use your data and prohibit selling it.
If you join a Writers' Group and share chapters with that group, those chapters are visible to other group members. Group sharing is always a deliberate action — nothing is shared automatically. You can revoke shared content by leaving the group or removing the shared chapter.
We may disclose data if legally required to do so (e.g., in response to a valid court order or government request). We will notify you of such requests where legally permitted.
If Conscriva is acquired or its assets are transferred, user data may be part of that transaction. We'll notify you before data is transferred to a new entity, and you'll have the opportunity to delete your account.
We use a cookie to keep you logged in. This is strictly necessary for the application to work. You can't opt out of this cookie while using the app.
We collect first-party analytics to understand how the product is used. This includes pages visited, features clicked, session duration, and referrer URLs. Analytics data is associated with your account when you're logged in, and with an anonymous session identifier when you're not.
We do not use third-party advertising trackers. We do not send usage data to ad networks.
We use browser local storage to remember your preferences (like light/dark mode) and to keep you authenticated. This is not shared with third parties.
You can disable cookies in your browser settings. Disabling cookies will log you out and prevent you from staying logged in. Analytics collection can be disabled by contacting us at hello@conscriva.com.
We keep your data for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account:
Server logs (IP addresses, request logs) are retained for 90 days for security purposes, then deleted.
You have the following rights over your data, regardless of where you live:
If you're in the EU or UK, you have additional rights under GDPR, including the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. Our legal basis for processing your data is: contract performance (operating the service you signed up for), legitimate interests (security, analytics, product improvement), and consent (optional communications).
California residents have the right to know what personal data we collect, to request deletion, and to opt out of "sale" of personal information. We do not sell personal information, so the opt-out right does not apply in practice. To exercise access or deletion rights, contact hello@conscriva.com.
Most rights can be exercised directly in your account settings. For requests that require our involvement, email hello@conscriva.com with subject "Privacy Request." We'll respond within 30 days.
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data:
No system is perfectly secure. If you discover a security vulnerability, please report it to hello@conscriva.com. We take these reports seriously.
In the event of a data breach affecting your personal data, we will notify you within 72 hours of becoming aware of it, as required by applicable law.
Conscriva is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If we become aware that we've collected data from a child under 13 without appropriate consent, we will delete it promptly.
Users between 13 and 18 may use Conscriva with parental consent, as noted in our Terms of Service.
Conscriva is operated from the United States. If you access the service from outside the US, your data will be transferred to and processed in the US.
For users in the EU/EEA or UK, data transfers are subject to appropriate safeguards. We rely on Standard Contractual Clauses with our service providers where required.
When we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we'll notify you by email at least 14 days before they take effect. Minor changes (clarifications, typo fixes) may be made without prior notice.
The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects when the current version was published. Continued use of the service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
