Privacy Policy

Data Collection

FictionForge is designed with your privacy in mind. We practice data minimization and local-first storage:

What we collect: None of your creative content is stored on our servers.
Where data lives: All your stories, characters, and creative work are stored locally in your browser using IndexedDB.
Data retention: You control your data. It remains on your device until you explicitly delete it.

AI Processing

When you use AI-powered features:

Provider: We use Vercel AI Gateway with OpenAI models
Data sent: Only the specific prompts and parameters you enter (genre, tone, etc.)
Purpose: To generate creative content based on your requests
Retention: AI providers process requests in real-time and do not store your creative content
