Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 2026
1. Information We Collect
We do not require you to create an account or provide any personal information to use Do Not Stop Writing.
The writing tool runs entirely in your browser. Any written content (your text drafts, goals, progress states) is stored only in-memory and is never transmitted to our servers or stored in any database. The moment you leave the page or refresh your browser, your writing session is deleted forever.
We use browser local storage (`localStorage`) strictly to save your user preferences locally, specifically:
Theme selection (light or dark mode preference)
2. Cookies
We do not use cookie identifiers, tracking beacons, or third-party marketing pixels to analyze your behavior or serve targeted advertisements. The application is cookie-free.
3. Third-Party Services
We do not sell, trade, or share any personal data with third-party service providers. In the event we use hosting services or static analytics, no identifiable text drafts or user-specific data is ever shared.
4. Data Retention
Since Do Not Stop Writing runs entirely client-side, we do not store or retain your drafts or progress logs. Any data entered into the writing session exists only in your browser's active memory. Once the tab is closed, refreshed, or the session ends, the data is permanently erased and cannot be recovered by us.
5. Children's Privacy
Do Not Stop Writing is not designed for or targeted to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect, store, or solicit personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.
6. Your Rights
Because we do not collect identifiable personal data, there is typically nothing for us to retrieve, correct, or delete on your behalf. If you have concerns, please contact us and we will respond promptly.
If you are located in the European Economic Area, you have the right to access, rectify, or erase any personal data we hold, and to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
