YOUR STORY STAYS YOURS

Privacy matters.

Draft for review before accepting real payments. Effective date: November 14, 2026. We built this for people who may share personal thoughts. Those details deserve careful handling.

What information we collect

Your preferred name, email address, selected service, response tone, story, service price, payment transaction references, timestamps, and the reply we prepare. We may process limited technical security information to prevent abuse.

Why we use it

To create and fulfill a paid personalized writing order, verify payment, send transactional emails, handle support, prevent fraud and meet legal recordkeeping requirements. We do not use submissions to train a public AI model, do not post stories publicly, and do not add addresses to marketing lists by default.

Service providers

Cloudflare hosts the website and database. PayPal handles checkout and payment; we do not store payment card numbers. Resend handles transactional email. Each provider processes information subject to its own terms. PayPal receives the service description and order reference, not the story text. Your email provider can process messages you receive.

Retention

Unpaid submissions are routinely deleted after approximately two days. For fulfilled or refunded requests, the submitted story, email, name and response are routinely removed from the active database after approximately 30 days; minimal transaction references, amounts and dates may remain for accounting, fraud prevention and legal records. Unresolved paid requests remain until fulfillment or refund. Backups and provider records may follow their own retention practices.

How we protect it

We use HTTPS, authenticated administrative access, a database not exposed directly to the public, and server-side payment verification. No online system can be guaranteed secure. Please avoid entering unnecessary sensitive or identifying information.

Data minimization and status links

We ask customers to avoid third-party names and identifying details. A private status link contains a random access key in the URL fragment so it is not sent in ordinary HTTP URL requests. Treat the link as a secret; anyone with it may view limited order status. After fulfillment or a completed refund, an administrator may manually purge your story and response from the active database earlier than the routine retention schedule.

Your choices

You can request access, correction or deletion of your personal story by emailing hello@someoneshouldsayit.com with the request ID. We may need to retain limited records to comply with law or resolve a transaction. The personalized story and email are not shared with marketing advertisers.

Children and safety

The service is restricted to adults 18 or older. Do not submit identifiable information about children or third parties. This site is not monitored for emergencies; contact emergency services or 988 for urgent help.
