Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-05-03
Introduction
This privacy notice explains how screenplay-beat-sheet-timer.hub2.day (the "Site") handles information when you visit or interact with it. The Site is a focused, independent web utility that helps screenwriters, novelists, and storytellers calculate ideal page and minute ranges for major story beats based on their script's total runtime. This notice is written to be practical and transparent, not to create unnecessary alarm.
Information You Provide Directly
The core function of the Site is an interactive beat sheet calculator. When you enter your script's total runtime, that input is processed in your browser to generate beat timing suggestions. The Site does not require you to create an account, provide your name, or submit personal identifiers to use the calculator.
If you contact us at hello@screenplay-beat-sheet-timer.hub2.day, we will use your email address and message content solely to respond to your inquiry. We do not add contact emails to marketing lists or share them with unrelated third parties.
Browser-Local Processing
The beat sheet calculator is designed to run primarily in your browser. Your script runtime input and the resulting beat calculations are not transmitted to our servers as part of normal use. Any temporary data stored in your browser (such as localStorage or sessionStorage entries used to preserve your session) remains on your device and is not accessible to us.
Server and Security Logs
Like most web servers, we maintain basic access and security logs. These may include your IP address, browser type, referring URL, pages visited, and timestamps. We use these logs for security monitoring, abuse prevention, and operational troubleshooting. Log data is retained for a limited period and is not used for individual profiling or sold to third parties.
Cookies and Local Storage
The Site may use cookies and browser local storage for the following purposes:
- Essential functionality: To remember your preferences and maintain your session state within the beat sheet calculator.
- Advertising: If you see advertisements on the Site, advertising partners (including Google AdSense) may set cookies or use similar technologies to serve relevant ads.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of the calculator and the display of advertisements.

Service Providers
We may use third-party service providers for hosting, analytics, and advertising. These providers have access to limited data necessary to perform their functions and are contractually obligated to protect that data. We do not authorize them to use your information for their own purposes.
Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this notice. Server logs are retained for a limited operational period. Information you provide via email is retained only as long as needed to address your inquiry. Browser-local data persists on your device until you clear it.
Children's Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 13 (or the applicable age of consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information against unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction. No method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
