Privacy & Storage

Your data belongs to you. Here is everything you need to know about how Creator Studios handles your information.

On this page

Data Stored Locally

Creator Studios saves all your data directly in your browser using the Web Storage API (localStorage and IndexedDB). This means:

  • Your projects, calendar entries, checklists, and settings never leave your device.
  • No data is transmitted over the network.
  • You can use the entire tool suite offline once the page has loaded.
  • Clearing your browser data will remove your workspace.

No Account Required

Because all data lives in your browser, there is no need to create an account or sign in. You can start using every tool immediately with zero friction.

This also means we never have access to your personal information — no email, no password, no billing details. Your privacy is built into the architecture of the product.

No Cloud Sync

Currently, Creator Studios does not sync data to the cloud or across devices. Each browser on each device maintains its own independent copy of your data.

Cloud sync and cross-device access are planned as future optional features. When they become available, local storage will remain the default — you will choose to opt in to cloud sync if you want it.

Important
Data is device-specific

If you switch browsers or devices, your data will not follow you automatically. You can manually export your data and import it on another device.

Browser & Device Limitations

Local storage has some important limitations to be aware of:

Storage Limit
~5-10 MB per origin

Most browsers allow 5-10 MB of localStorage per domain. IndexedDB has a higher limit (often hundreds of MB). Creator Studios uses both to maximize available space.

Browser Clearing
Data can be deleted

Clearing browser cache, cookies, or site data will remove your workspace. Always export important data before clearing browser storage.

Private Browsing
Temporary storage

In incognito or private browsing modes, your data is wiped when you close the last private window. Use normal browsing for persistent storage.

Data Loss Risk
No server backup

Since data is not uploaded to our servers, there is no server-side backup. If your device is lost or your browser data is cleared, the data cannot be recovered.

How localStorage Works

localStorage is a standard web API that allows websites to store key-value pairs in your browser persistently. Here is what you should know:

  • Persistent: Data stored in localStorage remains until you or your browser explicitly removes it. It survives browser restarts and computer reboots.
  • Origin-scoped: Data is isolated per domain. Other websites cannot access Creator Studios data, and Creator Studios cannot access data from other sites.
  • Synchronous: localStorage operations are synchronous, meaning they happen instantly without network requests.
  • String-only: Values must be strings. Creator Studios uses JSON.stringify and JSON.parse to store complex objects like projects and calendar events.
  • IndexedDB fallback: For larger datasets, Creator Studios uses IndexedDB, which provides more storage space and supports structured data natively.

Exporting Your Data

You can export your data at any time from the dashboard settings. This creates a downloadable JSON file containing all your projects, calendar events, checklists, and preferences.

To export your data:

  • Go to your Dashboard.
  • Open the Settings or Export section.
  • Click the Export button to download your data as a JSON file.
  • Keep this file in a safe place. You can later import it on another device or after clearing your browser data.
