Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the questions we hear most. For anything else, email info@kronoscript.net.

Is it free?

Yes. Kronoscript is free to use and ad-free. There's a small "tip the creator" link in the sidebar (powered by Ko-fi) for anyone who wants to chip in toward server costs; tipping is entirely optional and unlocks nothing — every feature stays accessible to everyone.

Our model is donations plus an optional Pro tier later for things like print-quality book exports, ghostwriting, or book-binding. The core "write, share with the people I choose, keep your story" experience stays free. We want to stay ad-free, and the way we keep it that way is by being donation-supported — if you can spare a few euros toward the next month of servers, that's what makes the model work.

Is my data safe?

Short answer: yes, but it's a beta — read the full Privacy Policy and User Agreement for the long version. The summary:

Your stories are stored on Microsoft Azure (encrypted in transit and at rest).
Passwords are stored as salted hashes, never in clear text.
We don't sell your data, don't show ads against it, and don't use it to train AI models. Staying that way is part of the deal we're trying to honor; if anything material ever changes, we'll update the Privacy Policy and tell you before it takes effect.
You can export everything any time, and you can delete your account from Settings.
Each post has a visibility setting you choose: Public, Acquaintances, Friends, Family, or Private. The server enforces it.

One caveat: this is a beta from a small independent project. If a breach ever happens, we'll notify affected users. The safest data is data you decide not to put online — please don't post confidential financial, medical, or legal information.

How do I invite my friend?

Two ways:

If they're already on Kronoscript: use the Network page to search for them by name or email, then send a connection request at the tier you want (Acquaintance, Friend, or Family).
If they're not yet: from the home page sidebar, click the "Invite a Friend" button. It generates a personalized invite link you can share via email, message, or however you talk to them. When they sign up using your link, you're auto-connected.

Can I export my stories?

Yes. Open the user dropdown (top-right) → Export My Story. It produces a Word document with all your published posts, in chronological order, including titles, dates, and body text. Your story is yours; if you ever leave Kronoscript, you take it with you.

Photos and videos are referenced by URL in the export. We're working on a "full bundle" export that packages the media alongside the document — coming soon.

What does "beta" mean?

Three things you should know:

Things may break. We test before shipping, but bugs sneak through. If you hit one, email info@kronoscript.net with what you were doing — we usually fix and deploy within a day or two.
Features will change. Buttons may move, layouts may shift, things you rely on today may behave differently tomorrow as we figure out what works.
Service availability isn't guaranteed. We aim for uptime, but planned and unplanned downtime happen. Don't make Kronoscript the only copy of memories you'd be devastated to lose — keep a backup or use the export feature periodically.
