Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how EbbiWriter collects, uses, shares, stores, and protects your personal data when you use our services.

Data Controller

EbbiWriter ("we", "us", "our") is the data controller responsible for your personal data. If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or our privacy practices, you can contact us at privacy{'@'}ebbiwriter.com.

Personal Data We Collect

We collect and process the following categories of personal data: (a) Account Information, including your name (if provided), email address, and authentication data; (b) User Content, including manuscripts, drafts, and any material you create, upload, or store within EbbiWriter; and (c) Technical Data, including your IP address, device information, browser type, and system logs necessary for service operation and security.

How We Use Your Personal Data

We use your personal data to provide and operate EbbiWriter, store and synchronise your content across devices, authenticate users, maintain account security, send transactional communications such as password resets and email verification, and maintain, monitor, and improve the reliability and performance of the service.

Legal Bases for Processing

If you are located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with similar laws, we process your personal data on the following legal bases: (a) Contractual necessity, to provide the service you have requested; (b) Legitimate interests, including maintaining service security, integrity, and performance; and (c) Compliance with legal obligations, where applicable.

Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We may share your personal data with trusted third-party service providers strictly as necessary to operate EbbiWriter, including infrastructure and hosting providers. All such providers are contractually bound to protect your data and process it only on our instructions.

International Data Transfers

EbbiWriter is operated by a company based in the United States. Your personal data may therefore be processed in the United States or other jurisdictions where our service providers operate. Where required by applicable law, we implement appropriate safeguards, including Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent mechanisms.

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to provide the service and fulfil the purposes described in this Policy. Account data and user content are retained until you delete your account or content. Certain technical logs may be retained for a limited period for security and operational purposes. We may retain data longer where required by law or for legitimate legal or security reasons.

Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect your personal data, including encryption in transit, access controls, and secure infrastructure practices. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable data protection laws, including the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your personal data, to object to certain processing activities, and to request data portability. To exercise your rights, contact us at privacy{'@'}ebbiwriter.com. We will respond within the timeframes required by applicable law.

Children’s Privacy

EbbiWriter is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 13, or the minimum age required by applicable law in your jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We do not use analytics or advertising cookies. We use only limited technical cookies or similar technologies that are strictly necessary for authentication, session management, security, and core service functionality.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated version on this page and update the effective date where appropriate.
