Privacy, terms, and license for Radial Timeline.

Privacy Policy

Effective October 1, 2026.

This policy covers the Radial Timeline and Editorialist plugins, radialtimeline.com, and Radial Timeline Community. Radial Timeline LLC is responsible for the personal information described here.

Information we process. Depending on the features you use, we process account details, profile information, book details, writing-activity summaries, content you submit or share, support messages, and basic device, usage and security information. We use this information to provide, maintain and improve the services, communicate with you, and address abuse and support requests.

Sharing and AI. Connecting a plugin to Community sends book details to your account. Your sharing settings control additional uploads and publication. Content you publish in Community is visible to others.

Plugin AI features use the provider account and API key you configure. When you submit scenes or other content for AI processing, the plugin processes and transmits that content to the selected provider, whose terms and privacy policy apply. Community also uses AI services to check public posts and profiles for abuse and to summarize public posts.

Service providers. We use third-party providers for hosting, account services, email, analytics and AI processing. They receive information needed for those services. Information may be processed in the United States and other countries. We may also disclose information to meet legal obligations, protect rights and safety, or as part of a business transfer. We do not sell personal information or share it for targeted advertising.

Retention. We retain information for service operations and relevant legal, security and dispute-handling needs. Deletion may take time to complete, and some records or backups may remain for those purposes. Contributions to shared writing activities may remain without identifying your account.

Your choices. Use your account settings to manage sharing and notifications, or request account deletion. You can unsubscribe from newsletters using the link in each email. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, export or delete personal information, object to or restrict processing, withdraw consent, or complain to a privacy regulator. Contact us to make a request; we may need to verify your identity.

Where applicable, we process information to provide our services, pursue legitimate interests such as security and improvement, comply with law, or with your consent.

Community is intended for people aged 16 and older. Contact us if you believe a child under 16 has provided personal information.

We may update this policy and will revise the date above. Where required, we will provide additional notice or seek consent.

Contact. Use our contact page or write to Radial Timeline LLC, 2108 N St Ste N, Sacramento, CA 95816, USA.

Cookies & Analytics

We use cookies and similar browser storage for sign-in, security and preferences, and analytics to understand website use. You can manage cookies through your browser; blocking them may affect some features.

Terms of Use

By using Radial Timeline you agree to use it lawfully and not to misuse, resell, disrupt, scrape, reverse-engineer, or attempt unauthorized access to the service. You remain responsible for content you submit. Community conduct. Do not post harassment, threats, hate, sexual exploitation, doxxing or private information, impersonation, fraud, malware, illegal content, or material that infringes another person’s rights. Do not spam, post repetitive or unsolicited promotions, use deceptive engagement tactics, or use Community primarily for advertising, lead generation, affiliate links, or commercial solicitation. Genuine recommendations and project news are welcome when relevant and any paid, gifted, affiliate, employment, or other material connection is clearly disclosed. Moderation. Members may report posts. We may review, limit distribution of, remove, or preserve content and may warn, suspend, or terminate accounts when we reasonably believe these terms, Community safety, or law require it. We may act without prior notice in urgent cases. Repeated or severe abuse may result in permanent removal. Knowingly false or abusive reports may also violate these terms. Community feature acceptance. Before first posting—and again after material rule changes—we may require you to affirm that you have read and agree to these Terms and Community rules. Your acceptance may be recorded with the version and time. The service is provided “as is,” without warranties, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Your content

You keep everything you make. Posting to Radial Timeline Community does not transfer ownership of your writing, artwork, or anything else you share.

To show your work to other people, we need your permission to store and display it. By posting, you grant Radial Timeline LLC a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, resize, and publicly display the content you choose to share — solely to operate the Community and show that content to the people you have chosen to show it to.

That licence is deliberately narrow:

It covers only content you affirmatively choose to publish.
It extends to our service providers (hosting, storage, content delivery) only as far as running the service requires.
We do not use your content to train AI models, and we do not license it to anyone else for that purpose.
We do not sell your content.
It ends when you delete the content or your account — subject to a short window while deletion completes and routine backups age out.

Your promises. By posting, you confirm that you own the content or otherwise have the right to share it, and that sharing it does not infringe anyone else’s rights or break the law. You are responsible for what you post.

Removal. We may remove content that breaches these Terms or our Community Guidelines, or in response to a valid copyright notice — see our Copyright & DMCA Policy below.

Copyright & DMCA

Radial Timeline LLC (“we”) respects copyright and responds to notices of alleged infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. §512. This policy applies to content posted by users on Radial Timeline Community (community.radialtimeline.com).

Reporting alleged infringement. If you believe content on our service infringes your copyright, send a written notice to our Designated Agent that includes all of the following (17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3)):

Your physical or electronic signature.
Identification of the copyrighted work you claim was infringed.
Identification of the material you claim is infringing and enough information for us to locate it (for example, the post URL).
Your contact information (address, telephone number, and email).
A statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner’s behalf.

Designated Agent for notice:
Copyright Agent, Radial Timeline LLC
2108 N St Ste N, Sacramento, CA 95816
Email: copyright@radialtimeline.com · Phone: (858) 284-0636

Our response. On receiving a valid notice we will expeditiously remove or disable access to the material and make a reasonable effort to notify the user who posted it.

Counter-notification. If your content was removed and you believe it was a mistake or misidentification, you may send our Designated Agent a counter-notification (17 U.S.C. §512(g)) that includes: (1) your signature; (2) identification of the removed material and its prior location; (3) a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed by mistake or misidentification; and (4) your name, address, and phone number, plus a statement consenting to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address (or, if outside the U.S., any district in which we may be found) and that you will accept service of process from the complainant. We may restore the material in 10–14 business days unless the complainant files a court action seeking to restrain the activity.

Repeat infringers. We will, in appropriate circumstances, disable and terminate the accounts of users who are repeat infringers.

Misrepresentation. Under 17 U.S.C. §512(f), anyone who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing (or was removed by mistake) may be liable for damages. Do not file false claims.
