Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 2026
What Data We Collect
- Personal stories and answers — the responses you provide to memory trigger questions during the story archiving process.
- Uploaded documents — text files (.txt, .md, .csv) you choose to upload for inclusion in your Story Bank.
- Pasted content — any text you paste directly into the app (journal entries, essays, social posts, etc.).
- Email address — collected only if you create an account, used for authentication via Supabase.
How Your Data Is Processed
Your stories and answers are sent to Anthropic's Claude API to generate your Story Bank document. This includes the text of your answers, any uploaded file content, and pasted content. The AI analyzes your responses to identify themes, language patterns, and signature phrases.
For authenticated users, your generated Story Bank and the answers that produced it are stored in a Supabase database so you can return to view, edit, and rebuild your archive over time.

Data Retention
- Authenticated users — your stories, answers, and generated Story Banks are stored in Supabase for as long as your account exists. You can delete your data at any time from the dashboard.
- Unauthenticated users — your wizard data (answers, uploaded content, pasted text) exists only in your browser session. Once you close the tab or navigate away, that data is gone. We do not store it server-side.
