Your college writing is personal. Here is what we do and don't do with it, in plain language.

Last updated: November 8, 2026.

The short version

We do not sell your writing or your personal information.
We do not show ads, and we do not build ad profiles from your essays or stories.
We do not use your writing to train AI models.
You can download everything you wrote at any time, including after your pass expires.
You can delete your account and your writing from inside the app.

What we collect

Account details from Whop when you sign in: your name, username and email address.
What you add to the app: your college list, checklists, personal deadlines, essays and PIQs (with earlier versions), Story Bank entries and scholarship notes.
Consent record: when you confirmed our terms and the minimum age (16).
Purchase records: that a payment or refund happened, the amount and the dates. Payments are processed by Whop; we never see your card number.
AI usage counts: how many AI feedback requests you made, the model used and the estimated cost. We do not store the text you sent or the reply.
Messages you send us: support requests, feedback and, if you join the presale list, your email, grade and optional note.
Technical logs: error messages that help us fix bugs. They are not meant to contain your writing.

Who can see your writing

You can. Our admin tools show totals, billing and support information. They do not include a page for reading students' essays or stories. Our hosting and database providers store the data for us, and the people who run those systems technically have infrastructure-level access, as with any online service.

AI feedback

If you use the AI writing coach, the text you choose to include in a request (and your question) is sent to our AI provider to produce a reply. The coach is built to comment, not to write: it declines to write or rewrite your essay. We do not use your writing to train models, and we choose provider settings accordingly. We do not store your request or the reply.

How long we keep things

We keep your writing while your account exists. After your pass expires you can still read and download it. If you delete your account, we delete your profile, essays and versions, Story Bank, college list, tasks and scholarship notes.

After deletion we keep: the purchase and refund record (needed for accounting and refund handling, no longer attached to a profile), AI usage counts and costs (no text, no longer attached to a profile), and any support message you sent us, so we can follow up on it.

Your choices

Export: in the app, open My Ownership and choose "Download All My Writing".
Delete: in the app, open My Ownership and choose "Delete my account".
Questions or requests: use the contact form.

Age

You must be at least 16 years old to create an account. If you are younger, please ask a parent or guardian to contact us first.

Cookies

We use only the cookies needed to keep you signed in. We do not use advertising cookies.
