Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

MyWritingFellow ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you use our website and AI writing companion service at mywritingfellow.com.

1. Information We Collect

Your account: You sign in with your email, so you have an account with us. We use your email to sign you in and to keep your work connected to you between visits.

Your conversations: Your conversations with your Fellow are saved so it can remember you between visits and pick up where you left off. Your Fellow also keeps short notes about your writing and what you are working on, so it gets to know you over time.

Uploaded files: If you upload a document (PDF, DOCX, TXT, or similar), its text becomes part of your conversation and is saved along with it.

You control your memory: You can turn memory off at any time. When it is off, your Fellow stops saving new conversations and notes. You can also ask us to delete your data at any time (see "Your Rights" below).

Usage data: We may collect standard web analytics (page views, session length, browser type) through our hosting provider (Netlify). This is aggregated and does not identify you personally.

2. How We Use Your Information

3. Third-Party Services

Anthropic: Your conversation messages are processed by the Anthropic Claude API to generate responses. Anthropic's privacy policy governs their handling of this data. We do not share personally identifying information with Anthropic beyond the conversation content you provide.

Netlify: Our site is hosted on Netlify. Netlify may collect standard server logs and analytics. See Netlify's privacy policy at netlify.com/privacy.

4. Data Retention

Your conversations and the notes your Fellow keeps are saved so it can remember you across visits. You stay in control: you can turn memory off at any time, and your Fellow will stop saving. You can also ask us to delete your account and everything connected to it, and we will remove it.

5. AI-Generated Content Disclaimer

MyWritingFellow is powered by artificial intelligence. Responses generated by your Fellow are AI-generated and are intended for creative writing support purposes only. They do not constitute professional editorial, legal, medical, psychological, or any other professional advice. Always consult a qualified professional for matters requiring professional expertise.
