How does Domain Rating (DR) keyword matching work?

AuthorityWriter evaluates your website's backlink power and actual Domain Rating to target keywords you can win, discarding impossible high-KD keywords that waste your credits.

Are there any word count limits or per-word fees?

Zero artificial caps. Articles naturally expand to 2,500–4,500+ words based on search intent with no per-word surcharges.

How does instant Google Search Console indexing work?

We trigger Google's URL Inspection and Indexing API immediately upon publishing so Google crawls your content faster.

Which CMS platforms and webhooks are supported?

WordPress, Shopify Blogs, Webflow CMS Collections, Framer, Wix, Notion, and custom Webhooks.

Can I review drafts before they publish automatically?

Yes. Choose hands-off Published mode or Draft mode for editorial review.

Privacy Policy

How AuthorityWriter collects, encrypts, and handles your data, domain metrics, Google Search Console tokens, and CMS connection keys.

Last Updated: September 18, 2026 Effective Immediately

1. Overview and Core Philosophy

AuthorityWriter ("we", "us", or "our") operates an autonomous search engine optimization and publishing engine. We design our platform with a foundational principle: your content strategy, competitive research, domain analytics, and search intelligence belong exclusively to you.

We do not use your proprietary articles, customer data, domain metrics, or site topologies to train public machine learning models.

2. Google Search Console & Google API Services

AuthorityWriter utilizes Google OAuth 2.0 to connect to your verified Google Search Console account. Our use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres strictly to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Specifically, regarding Google Search Console data:

✓ Limited Scope: We only request the webmasters and indexing scopes necessary to trigger Googlebot URL crawls and inspect indexation status for articles published through our engine.
✓ Zero Training: Data retrieved from Google APIs is never pooled, shared, or utilized to train general AI models.
✓ Encrypted Tokens: Google OAuth refresh and access tokens are encrypted at rest using AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption.

3. Information We Collect

We collect only the data necessary to provide our autonomous research, writing, and indexing services:

• Account Information: Name, email address, password hash (via Argon2id / bcrypt), and active billing plan status.
• Connected Website Metadata: Domain name, site URL, XML sitemap address, calculated Domain Rating (DR), and publishing schedules.
• CMS Integration Credentials: WordPress Application Passwords, Shopify API tokens, Webflow collection IDs, and webhook signing secrets. All credentials are encrypted at rest with hardware-backed AES-256 keys.

4. Payment Processing & Billing Data

All financial transactions are processed by certified PCI-DSS Level 1 payment partners (Stripe and Polar). AuthorityWriter does not capture, process, or store raw credit card numbers or banking credentials on our infrastructure.

5. Data Retention, Portability & Deletion

You maintain complete ownership of your data. At any time, you can:

✓ Export: Download all generated articles in Markdown or clean HTML directly from the editor or dashboard.
✓ Disconnect: Revoke Google Search Console tokens or CMS integration access with a single click.
✓ Delete: Request complete account and data eradication by contacting our Data Protection team.
