Copyright, Privacy & AI Policy

Your stories are yours — always. Scriptory Beta exists to give writers and creators a place to share their worlds safely. Below is an explanation of what Scriptory is (and isn’t), how your content is protected, and how we handle data.

What Scriptory Is (and Isn’t)

  • ✅ A community-built space for writers, actors, directors, editors, and dreamers.
  • ✅ A creative hub for scripts, worldboards, moodboards, and cinematic storytelling.
  • ✅ A love letter to writing, character, worldbuilding, and the craft of story.
  • ❌ A commercial script marketplace.
  • ❌ Scraped or auto-generated content.
  • ❌ A content farm.
  • ❌ AI-powered or AI-trained — no AI writes, reads, or trains on your work here.

1. Copyright & Ownership

Every script, worldboard, image, character, and creative work you upload to Scriptory Beta remains 100% your property. We do not claim ownership, sell, redistribute, or license your work.

By uploading, you grant Scriptory a limited, non-exclusive license to display your work on the platform. This is only for showing it inside Scriptory. It is not used for:

  • marketing
  • AI training
  • third-party distribution
  • external archiving

You may make a script public or private at any time, and you may delete it whenever you want. Once deleted, it disappears from the platform. Temporary system backups may retain encrypted copies for a short time — but never for training, analysis, or any purpose other than security.

2. Fan Content, Images & Trademarks

Worldboards are a huge part of Scriptory. But users are responsible for ensuring that anything they upload — cast photos, locations, props, images, logos — does not violate copyright or trademark laws.

We support fair use, commentary, and creative reference, but we cannot host:

  • full movie stills or posters you don’t own
  • studio logos
  • celebrity headshots used without permission

If a rights holder contacts us, we remove the content quickly according to our DMCA policy.

3. Privacy & Security

Scriptory uses Supabase for secure authentication and storage. Private scripts are protected by Row-Level Security, meaning only you can access them.

We collect the minimum information required to run your account (email, username, encrypted password). We do not sell, rent, or share personal data.

If you delete your account, your scripts, comments, saves, likes, and profile are removed from the live database. Encrypted backup copies may temporarily persist but are never reused or mined.

Third-Party Embeds

When you interact with Spotify, YouTube, SoundCloud, or other embeds, those platforms may collect data under their own privacy policies. Scriptory does not control or store this information.

4. AI, Automation & Data Protection

Scriptory does not use AI to generate content, analyze scripts, or train models. Your work is never fed into machine learning systems — not ours, not anyone’s.

  • We do not train AI models on user content.
  • We do not allow third parties to scrape content for training datasets.
  • We block automated crawlers and AI harvesting tools where technically possible.
  • You may not use Scriptory to scrape, copy, or download content to train AI models.

Scriptory is and will remain a human-made, human-centered platform.

5. Your Rights

  • You own your work fully.
  • You control your visibility settings.
  • You may delete anything you’ve posted at any time.
  • You may request account deletion, which removes your data.
  • Your content is never used for AI training.

6. Eligibility

Scriptory Beta is intended for users 13+ or the minimum age in your country for online services. By creating an account, you confirm this.

7. DMCA & Takedown Policy

Scriptory follows the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). If you believe material on Scriptory infringes your rights, send a detailed notice to:

contact@thescriptory.com

Your notice must include:

  • Identification of the copyrighted work
  • Direct links to the content
  • Your contact info
  • A good-faith statement that the use is unauthorized
  • A statement under penalty of perjury
  • Your signature

Upon receiving a valid notice, we remove or disable the material and notify the uploader. Repeat infringement may result in account restrictions or removal.

8. Changes to This Policy

Scriptory may update these terms as we grow. The “Last updated” date below will change, and major updates may be announced in-app or via email. Continued use of the platform means you accept the updated terms.
