Your account. Your email address, or the identifier Sign in with Apple gives us (and the email
Apple shares, which may be a private relay address). Your handle, display name, pen name, bio, links, writing
languages, and profile picture.
What you write and record. Poems, drafts, responses, translations, reviews, reading logs, lists,
highlights and their notes, and recitations. Drafts, highlight notes, and reading logs without a review are private to
you. Poems follow the visibility you choose.
Who you interact with. Follows, blocks, mutes, appreciations, and reports you file or that are
filed about you, with the decisions moderators make on them.
Sign in. One time codes (stored only as a keyed hash, deleted within a day) and session tokens
(stored only as a hash).
How the app is working. A daily count of how many requests the app made and which kinds of
failure it saw, with no content. Crash and hang reports, which contain no name, email, or poem text.
The waiting list. If you join it on this website, your email address, used only to tell
you when Antara opens and deleted after.
Server logs. Our hosting provider records each request's time, path, status, and IP address.
Our own logs record ids and outcomes, never your email, your writing, or a token.
Antara does not show ads, does not sell or share your data for advertising, and does not track you across other
apps or websites.
Who processes it
Google Cloud (hosting, request logs, secrets), in the United States.
Your profile, public poems, reviews, lists, responses, translations, and recitations can be seen by anyone,
including people without an account through share links. Followers only poems are seen only by your followers.
People you block cannot see your writing, and you cannot see theirs. Moderators can see reported writing to act on
it.
Deleting your data
Delete your account in Settings. Your account and everything it wrote are deleted at once. Other people's diary
entries and lists that pointed at your poems lose those entries. Deleted profile pictures and recitations are kept
for 30 days in case of a mistaken deletion, then removed. Encrypted nightly backups are kept for 30 days, and one a
week for a year, and are used only to recover from a failure. You can also delete individual poems, drafts, logs,
lists, highlights, responses, translations, and recitations at any time.
Children
Antara is not for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
