WriteByte Privacy Policy
This policy covers the public WriteByte site, the OAuth-backed MCP connector, and the author tools surfaced through ChatGPT and Claude.
WriteByte stores account information needed to authenticate users, route access requests, and render author pages. That may include email address, name, username, OAuth client metadata, access-review notes, and article content created through the product.
The MCP connector stores OAuth clients, authorization codes, access tokens, refresh tokens, and server-side session state so connected AI apps can act on the author's behalf after explicit browser approval. Drafts, revisions, comments, and profile edits are stored in the same production database as the public site.
WriteByte uses connected AI hosts only as the interface where the author chooses to work. The product records article content, provenance metadata, lifecycle actions, and related profile updates needed to provide the publishing workflow.
Users can request support or deletion help through Support. Security and data-handling details are summarized on the Security & Data Use page.
