What we collect

The premises and scripts you write, any photos you add for a character, the portraits, images and episodes we generate from them, your email address if you give it to us, and confirmation that you paid. Payments are handled by our payment processor; we never see or store your card details.

To prevent automated abuse and payment fraud, we use browser verification, a signed visitor cookie, and short-lived attempt counters. Our database stores a hashed network identifier rather than your raw IP address.

To understand which steps of the site work, we keep anonymous usage events (for example “script written” or “checkout started”, with the genre and length picked) tied to a random ID stored in your browser. With them we keep only the traffic source category, the referring site’s domain, campaign (utm) tags and the landing page — no IP address, device fingerprint or full referring URL.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to measure visits, page views and traffic sources. Google may receive browser and device information and process your IP address to provide analytics. If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland (judged from your IP address’s country), analytics cookies are used only after you choose “Allow”, and you can change your choice at any time with the “Analytics preferences” link at the bottom of every page. Elsewhere analytics are on by default and you can turn them off with the “Disable analytics” link at the bottom of every page; browsers that send a Global Privacy Control signal are treated as having turned them off. Your choice is saved in your browser.

We send only public page categories and referring site domains, with a limited list of traffic source and medium tags. We exclude URL queries, fragments and private video IDs. We do not send email addresses, prompts, uploaded media, private links or tokens to Google Analytics. We do not enable advertising personalization or Google Signals. Google Privacy Policy.

How we use it

Your scripts and photos are used only to write and render your episodes — never to identify anyone. We do not sell your data, share it for advertising or use your photos or scripts to train models. We share data only with the service providers we need to run the site (for example payments, hosting, script writing and video generation). Your email is used to deliver your episodes and product updates you asked for.

Retention

Uploaded photos are deleted automatically after 30 days; generated portraits and finished episodes after 90 days. Script drafts are kept so you can come back to your series; email us to delete them sooner.

Local abuse counters and failed payment records expire within 24 hours; our scheduled cleanup removes expired records. The visitor cookie lasts 30 days.
