Privacy policy
Effective 12 November 2026
In short: Series Continuity runs on your computer, and your manuscripts and series bible are kept there, in folders you choose. When you run one of its AI tools, the text that tool needs is sent from your computer directly to the AI provider you have chosen, using your own account with that provider. We do not run a server that receives your writing, and there is no analytics or telemetry in the app or on this website.
Who we are
Series Continuity is made by TechniQuest Associates ("we", "us"). Questions about this policy or your data go to hello@techniquestassociates.com.
Where your writing is kept
- Your series. Each series lives in a folder on your computer that you choose. The series bible, reports and the app's own records for that series are files in that folder. We never receive them.
- Backups and history. Series Continuity keeps dated copies of the series bible, and a history of every change to it, in a
SeriesContinuityBackupsfolder. By default that is in your Documents folder. You can instead choose the folder that iCloud Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive or Box keeps on your computer. Series Continuity does not sign in to or contact any of those services: it saves files into the folder, and the service's own program uploads them. What that service does with them is under its terms, not ours. - Settings. Your list of series and your settings are kept in the app's own settings folder on your computer.
What is sent to an AI provider, and when
Series Continuity's tools work by asking an AI model to read text. You choose the provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, xAI or OpenRouter) and supply your own API key for it.
- What is sent. When you run a tool, the app sends that provider the text the tool needs: for example the chapter or planning document you gave it, the relevant parts of your series bible, any instructions or rules you have added for your series, and the tool's own instructions. Nothing is sent until you run a tool.
- Where it goes. It goes from your computer directly to the provider, under your account with them. It does not pass through us, and we cannot see it.
- What the provider does with it. That is governed by your agreement with the provider and its privacy policy, including how long it keeps what you send and whether it may use it to improve its models. These differ between providers and can change. Please read your provider's terms before sending unpublished work.
- Listing models. The app also asks the provider which models your key can use. That request carries your key and nothing from your writing.
- OpenRouter. If you use OpenRouter, requests also carry the name "Series Continuity" and this website's address, which OpenRouter uses to identify the app.
Your API keys
The keys you enter are stored on your computer, encrypted with your operating system's protected storage where it is available. A key is sent only to the provider it belongs to. We never receive your keys.
What Series Continuity never does
- No analytics, telemetry, crash reporting or advertising.
- No server of ours receives your manuscripts, your series bible or your keys.
- We do not use your writing to train anything, and we do not sell, share or show it to anyone.
Licences and buying
Series Continuity is in development and is not yet on sale. When it is, purchases will be handled by Lemon Squeezy as merchant of record, and the app will check licence keys with Lemon Squeezy's licence service. This policy will be updated to say exactly what is sent before that happens. Until then the app sends nothing to Lemon Squeezy.
This website
seriescontinuity.com has no cookies, analytics, tracking, advertising or third-party fonts or scripts. It is hosted on GitHub Pages, whose servers, like any web server, see your IP address to send you the page; see GitHub's privacy statement.
When you email us
If you write to us, we keep your message and address to reply and to keep a record of our conversation. If you ask to hear when Series Continuity is ready, we use your address for that and nothing else. We do not share your details with anyone.
Keeping and deleting your data
- Everything the app keeps is on your computer and stays until you remove it: delete a series' folder, the backups folder, or the app's settings folder after uninstalling.
- To have us delete emails you have sent us, write to hello@techniquestassociates.com.
- For anything you have sent to an AI provider, ask that provider; we have no copy and no access.
- Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or export your personal data, or to object to its use. Write to us and we will help.
Children
Series Continuity is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update it here with a new effective date.
