Privacy Policy
We keep it simple: your data is yours, we collect only what we need, and we never sell it to anyone.
What We Collect
Your name, email, and password when you register. We use this to manage your account and keep it secure.
Writeups, comments, and interactions you publish. This is your content — we store it so it can be displayed on the platform.
Login cookies to keep you signed in and remember your preferences. No third-party tracking cookies.
Page views and interaction patterns to improve the platform. We do not share this data with advertisers or third parties.
How We Use Your Data
We use the information we collect to operate and improve WriteUpCafe, deliver features you have requested, personalize your experience, and communicate important updates about your account or the platform.
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes. Your information is only used within the platform to provide services to you.
If content on the site includes embedded media from other websites (such as videos or social posts), those providers may collect data about you through their own cookies and tracking.
Data Retention
We retain your personal information only for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services to you. Comments and published content are retained indefinitely to maintain community continuity.
If you delete your account, we will remove your personal information within a reasonable timeframe. Content you have published may be anonymized rather than deleted, to preserve the integrity of discussions and references.
Your Rights
Request a complete export of all personal data we hold about you, at any time.
Request erasure of your personal data, except where retention is required by law.
View, update, or correct your personal information at any time from your account settings.
Security
We protect your personal information with industry-standard safeguards including encrypted connections (HTTPS), secure password hashing (bcrypt), and access controls that limit who can view your data internally.
While no online service can guarantee absolute security, we are committed to taking reasonable measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
