THE PRACTICAL PART

Privacy, plainly.

Your account

We store your username, password hash, optional recovery-passcode hash, account timestamps and session version. Passwords and passcodes are not stored as readable text. A secure session cookie keeps you signed in for up to 28 days. A theme preference is stored in your browser and a theme cookie.

Your materials

Uploads are private in Cloudflare R2, with access limited to you and temporary links supplied to the generation provider. We send the required media and quest instructions through OpenRouter to the selected provider. Do not upload sensitive documents or material you lack permission to use.

Your finished film

Completed films are public on Manifestation for 47 hours. The download button and download endpoint are author-only; a public video is not copy-protected. Other viewers may still record or save what they can watch. Access closes at expiry; scheduled deletion and durable cleanup remove stored files. Temporary outages may delay physical cleanup, not the expiry access restriction.

Retention

Unused originals expire within 48 hours. Finished films expire 47 hours after completion. Raw optional text and derived prompts are cleared with film cleanup. Purchase and minimal job records remain for payment reconciliation, fraud prevention and service operation. We do not claim that downstream providers erase their copies on the same schedule; their policies apply separately.

Payment and hosting

Stripe processes payment details; we do not store card numbers. Cloudflare hosts the app, database and private object storage. Operational logs and rate limits help protect the service. No advertising trackers are installed. Google Fonts receives normal font requests from your browser.
