Privacy Policy

Last updated June 4, 2026

Template copy for review — please have these terms checked by counsel before launch.

Writers Nook is built local-first, which means the simplest way we protect your writing is by not having it in the first place. Your words never live on our servers — not even if you subscribe to Device Sync. This policy explains what little we do collect, and why.

What stays on your device

Your manuscripts, notes, story bible, and settings live as files on your own computer. We cannot read them, and nothing you write ever touches our servers.

What we collect

  • Account basics: your email address, the name you entered at checkout, and your license key, so we can tie your purchase to you and let you sign in.
  • Payment records: handled by our merchant of record, Lemon Squeezy. We see order history, not your full card details.

Device Sync & encryption

Device Sync (coming later — Phase 2) passes your changes between your devices through our relay, end-to-end encrypted. The relay forwards changes and does not store your writing. We cannot read it, and no copy of your manuscript exists on our servers at any point — with or without a subscription.

Email

We email you essentials (your key, download links, receipts). If you subscribe to our newsletter, you can unsubscribe in one click, any time.

Your rights

You can request a copy of your data or ask us to delete your account by emailing support@writersnook.app.
