OVERVIEW
Quillhollow is designed to work entirely on your computer, without collecting your data. This policy describes the limited circumstances in which information is handled when you voluntarily contact Wilson Technical Arts. It applies to copies of the Software distributed via the Steam platform; copies of the Software distributed through other channels are covered by a separate policy.
Wilson Technical Arts Inc. ("Wilson Technical Arts", "we", "us") is based in Ontario, Canada, and subject to the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy legislation. Wilson Technical Arts does not collect or store personal data in connection with the normal use of the Software, and does not receive any personal data from Steam in connection with your purchase. The Steam platform itself collects information about your Steam account and your purchases under its own privacy practices, which are independent of Wilson Technical Arts. This policy is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. Our End User License Agreement is distributed with the Software.
1. WHAT WE COLLECT AND WHY
1.1 Software Operation
During normal use, Quillhollow operates entirely on your local machine. No data about you, your writing, or your activity is transmitted to Wilson Technical Arts or any third party.
1.2 Steam Purchase Information
When you purchase the Software through Steam, the transaction is between you and Valve Corporation. Wilson Technical Arts does not receive, process, or store your name, email address, payment details, Steam ID, order details, or any other personally identifying information in connection with your Steam purchase. Steam's collection and handling of your personal information is governed by Steam's own privacy agreement (https://store.steampowered.com/privacy_agreement/), independent of this policy.
1.3 Feedback and Bug Reports
The Software does not transmit feedback or bug reports automatically. The Feedback option in the Software opens the Steam Community discussions tab for the Software's store page in your browser; any post you make in that forum is hosted by Valve Corporation and governed by Steam's own terms, and is visible to other Steam users.
You may also contact Wilson Technical Arts by email at support@quillhollow.app. Any information you voluntarily include in such communications (which may include your application version, operating system, or other context you choose to share to aid investigation) is used solely to address your report and is retained only as long as reasonably necessary for that purpose.
2. HOW WE SHARE INFORMATION
We do not sell, rent, or share information about you with third parties for marketing or commercial purposes.
We may share information in the following limited circumstances:
- Steam platform: When you purchase or use the Software through Steam, the transaction and platform delivery are operated by Valve Corporation. Valve's privacy agreement (https://store.steampowered.com/privacy_agreement/) governs its handling of your account, purchase, and usage information.
- Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required to do so by law, regulation, or valid legal process, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of Wilson Technical Arts, our users, or the public.
- Business transfer: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of Wilson Technical Arts, any information we hold may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to the same protections described in this policy. We will provide notice of any such transfer as described in our End User License Agreement distributed with the Software.
3. DATA SECURITY
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect any information we hold against unauthorized access, loss, or disclosure. Because we do not store purchase records or account information for Steam users, the surface area of data we hold in connection with Steam customers is limited to any voluntary email correspondence you initiate.
4. YOUR RIGHTS
Wilson Technical Arts does not store personal data about you in connection with your Steam purchase or use of the Software.
To the extent any personal data is incidentally processed (for example, in written feedback you voluntarily submit by email), you may have the following rights depending on your jurisdiction:
- Access: You may request information about any personal data we hold that relates to you.
- Correction: You may request that we correct inaccurate personal data.
- Deletion: You may request that we delete personal data we hold about you.
- Portability: You may request a copy of any personal data we hold in a structured, machine-readable format.
- Restriction: You may request that we limit how we use your personal data while a request is being resolved.
- Objection: You may object to our processing of your personal data where that processing is based on legitimate interest.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@quillhollow.app. We will respond within a reasonable time and in accordance with applicable law.
For information about exercising privacy rights with respect to data held by Valve Corporation in connection with your Steam account, please refer to Steam's privacy agreement.
If you are located in the European Union or United Kingdom, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. In the UK, this is the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). We would prefer to address your concerns directly first, and encourage you to contact us before filing a complaint.
If you are located in Canada, you have the right to file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
5. CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS
Wilson Technical Arts does not collect or sell personal information as part of the Software's normal operation, as described in Section 1. We do not receive or store personal information in connection with your Steam purchase. Accordingly, Wilson Technical Arts does not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, and is not required to provide a "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" mechanism with respect to the Software's operation. California residents who wish to exercise rights under the CCPA / CPRA may contact us at support@quillhollow.app. Valve Corporation's handling of California residents' personal information through the Steam platform is governed by Steam's own privacy agreement.
6. CHILDREN
The Software is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly store any data in connection with use by children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently done so, please contact us at support@quillhollow.app. Use of the Steam platform is also subject to Steam's own age requirements, which are administered by Valve Corporation.
7. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The current version is distributed with the Software through Steam updates and is identified by its version number and effective date. Material changes will be communicated through an in-app notification on first launch following an update. Your continued use of the Software after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy for any new interactions; your rights regarding previously collected information are not diminished by any update.
