description={`How ${site.name} handles your data. The short version: your book never leaves your machine, and we keep no copy.`}

|
||||
<h2>The short version</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Margin is an offline writing studio that runs on your own computer. Your book and everything
|
||||
you write stay on your device. We never receive a copy, and nothing you write is sent away to
|
||||
be read or stored by us. This page explains the few places where data is involved, so you know
|
||||
exactly what happens and what does not.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>What stays on your device</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Your manuscript, your spelling and grammar checks, your fonts and book setup, and every print
|
||||
and ebook export all happen locally on your machine. None of this requires an account, a login,
|
||||
or an internet connection, and none of it passes through our servers.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>No account, no tracking</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
You do not need to sign up, log in, or give us an email address to write with Margin. This
|
||||
website does not use tracking cookies, advertising pixels, or third-party analytics. The only
|
||||
thing the site stores in your browser is your light or dark theme preference, kept locally so
|
||||
the page looks the way you left it.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Downloads and updates</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Margin is distributed through GitHub Releases. When you download the app, or when the app checks
|
||||
for a new version to keep itself up to date, a request is made to GitHub to fetch the latest
|
||||
release. As with any web request, GitHub can see your IP address for that request, handled under
|
||||
GitHub's own privacy policy. We do not add any tracking of our own to these requests.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Optional backup to your Google Drive</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Margin can save a backup of your book to your own Google Drive, but only if you turn it on. When
|
||||
you do, you connect your own Google account, and the backup is written to your Drive, in your
|
||||
account, under your control. We never receive a copy of that backup and cannot read it. You can
|
||||
disconnect Margin from your Google account at any time from your Google account settings, and the
|
||||
app works exactly the same with the feature switched off.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Payments</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
If you buy Margin, the payment is handled by a third-party payment processor. We do not see or
|
||||
store your full card details. The processor handles the transaction and shares with us only what
|
||||
we need to confirm your purchase and provide support.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Children</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Margin is a tool for writers and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly
|
||||
collect personal information from children.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Changes to this policy</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
If we update this policy, we will change the date at the top of this page. Because the app keeps
|
||||
your book on your own device, the spirit of this policy is unlikely to change: your words belong
|
||||
to you.

||||

title="Terms of Use"
|
||||
updated="June 22, 2026"
|
||||
description={`The terms for using ${site.name}: a one-time purchase, your content stays yours, used as is.`}
|
||||
>
|
||||
<h2>Acceptance</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
These terms cover your use of Margin, the offline writing app, and this website. By downloading,
|
||||
buying, or using Margin, you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Your license to use Margin</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Margin is a one-time purchase. When you buy it, you get a personal, non-exclusive license to
|
||||
install and use the app on the devices you own. You keep using the version you bought, and
|
||||
updates are included at no extra cost. You may not resell, rent, or redistribute the app, or
|
||||
attempt to defeat its purchase, and you may not reverse engineer it except where the law
|
||||
expressly allows.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Your content is yours</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Everything you write in Margin belongs to you. Your book is a file on your own computer. We claim
|
||||
no ownership of it, take no license to it, and never receive a copy. You are responsible for your
|
||||
own work, including keeping your own backups and making sure you have the right to publish what
|
||||
you write.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Acceptable use</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Use Margin lawfully. Do not use it to create or distribute material that is illegal, or that
|
||||
infringes someone else's rights. What you choose to write and publish is your responsibility, not
|
||||
ours.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Third-party services</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Margin can connect to services you choose, such as your own Google Drive for backups, and you
|
||||
download and publish through platforms like GitHub and the ebook and print stores. Your use of
|
||||
those services is governed by their own terms and policies, which we do not control.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Updates and availability</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
We work to keep Margin reliable and to improve it over time, but we may change, pause, or
|
||||
discontinue parts of the app or this website. Because Margin runs on your own machine, the copy
|
||||
you have installed keeps working even if a feature that depends on an outside service changes.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>The app is provided as is</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Margin is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or
|
||||
implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that
|
||||
the app will be error-free or uninterrupted, or that it will meet every need. You are responsible
|
||||
for backing up your own work.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Limitation of liability</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Margin and its maker will not be liable for any indirect,
|
||||
incidental, or consequential damages, or for any loss of data or content, arising from your use
|
||||
of the app. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for Margin.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Refunds</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
If Margin is not working for you, write to us. We would rather make it right or refund your
|
||||
purchase than have you stuck with a tool you cannot use.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Changes to these terms</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will change the date at the top of
|
||||
this page. Continuing to use Margin after a change means you accept the updated terms.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Governing law</h2>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, United States, without regard to
|
||||
its conflict of laws rules.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||

||||
