User-entered data

Content you type into Steward, including character names, notes, backstory and homebrew, belongs to you. In this early version it is stored locally on your device and is not sent to any server.


Privacy

Steward does not require an account and does not collect personal data in this static version. If privacy-friendly analytics are added in the future, they will measure page usage only. Character data, names, backstory text and homebrew content will never be tracked.

If you subscribe to project updates, your email address is stored by our newsletter provider (Buttondown), used only to send Steward project news and never sold or shared. We track which links you click in these emails to see what content is useful, but not whether or when you open them. Subscriptions are confirmed by double opt-in and every email includes an unsubscribe link.


Donations

Donations support the development and hosting of Steward. They do not unlock playable content, do not grant features and are not payments for official D&D material.
