This describes what the service does today, not
what we intend it to do. When that changes, this page changes first.
Your stories are not encrypted yet
Encryption of story content is built but not switched on. Until it is, your premises,
notes and chapters are stored in plain text in our database. We are saying so here rather
than describing the finished state, because a privacy page that promises protection you do
not have is worse than no page at all.
We can read your stories, and here is when we do
The engine runs on our servers, so it reads your premise, your instructions and the
chapters so far in order to write the next one. That happens for the duration of the
request. We do not read your stories as routine work, and we have built our own admin tools
so that they cannot: no screen in this service can display the text of anyone's story. That
is a deliberate constraint on ourselves, and it is the one we would notice removing.
What we send to the model
Generating a chapter means sending your text to the provider that runs the model. We do
not send your email address or your account identifier with it.
What we store about you
Your email address, which site you signed up on, when you last signed in, and counts:
stories, sections, words, and what the generation cost. The choices you make from our menus
- explicitness, length, the tags you tick - are stored in readable form and used in
aggregate to decide what to build next.
What we measure while you read
Which country you connect from, where you arrived from, which sections you opened and how
long you stayed. There are no cookies, no third-party scripts and no advertising network on
this site. Nothing leaves our own database.
Deletion
You delete your account yourself, from the account page, without asking anyone. It goes
immediately and it cannot be undone. What goes: your account, every story and every
section in it, your waiting-list entry, and any message you have sent us through the
contact form.
What stays, and we would rather say so than round it off: two rows of numbers. What your
generations cost us, and any star rating you gave a story. Both keep the amount, the date
and which model ran; both have your account and the story removed from them, so there is
nothing left in either that points back to you. We keep them because we cannot run the
service without knowing what it costs, and because a rating is a fact about a story
engine rather than about a person.
What we store when you write to us
The contact form keeps your email address, what you wrote, which site you wrote from, the
country the request came from, and a one-way hash of your IP address. The hash is there so
we can tell whether the same sender is flooding the form; it cannot be turned back into an
address. Messages are deleted when they are dealt with.
Who runs this
Operator: Chaoscompany ApS. Reach us through the contact page - we do not publish an email
address, because an address on a page like this one is harvested within a day and cannot be
taken back.
