Privacy

Writing Practice stores what it needs to be your writing desk, and nothing else. No analytics, no trackers, no advertising, one session cookie.

What is stored

• Your identity — the numeric GitHub ID, login, and avatar URL from GitHub sign-in. The temporary GitHub token is discarded immediately after the profile lookup; the service never receives repository access. The session is a signed cookie that expires after 7 days.
• Your writing — pieces, briefs, coach notes, and your replies, stored on the service's own infrastructure and readable only by your account.
• Billing state — subscription status from Polar and a usage ledger of coach sessions. Card details never touch this service; Polar is the merchant of record.

Who processes what

• GitHub handles sign-in (identity only).
• Polar handles payment, checkout, and the billing portal.
• OpenAI receives your brief, your draft, and the coach's earlier notes when you start a piece or explicitly request another coach session, with provider-side storage disabled. Per OpenAI's API terms, this data is not used to train their models. Typing and saving never send your writing to OpenAI.

Deletion

Deleting a piece removes it and everything on its desk immediately. To delete the whole account, cancel through Manage plan and wait for the paid period to end; the billing screen then offers account deletion. A successful deletion removes every piece, the shelf, the account record, and its billing-audit projection. There is no soft delete and no retention window.
