Fountain+ Local Data Policy
Last updated: 28/05/2026
Summary
fountain.plus is the home page for Fountain+, a suite of screenplay formatting tools for Google Docs™. The suite includes three products: Fountain+ Exporter (a Google Workspace™ add-on), Fountain+ Studio (a Chrome Extension), and the Fountain+ API with the Fountain Man Discord bot.
This policy explains what data each product and the fountain.plus website store on your device, and how you can control it.
The only local data created by any Fountain+ product is Fountain+ Studio's user preferences in chrome.storage.local. No product stores your document content, account data, personal information, or browsing history on your device.
Fountain+ (also known as Fountain-Plus and Fountain Plus) is part of the Script 2 Storyboard suite of tools, developed by Absolutely Skint (Pistol Taeja).
Fountain+ Exporter
Google Workspace add-on
The Fountain+ Exporter runs within Google Docs and processes your document text locally in your browser for export.
- The Exporter does not use localStorage, sessionStorage, IndexedDB, cookies, or any local storage mechanism on your device.
- All document processing occurs in browser memory during the active export session and is discarded when the export dialog closes.
- The Exporter does not cache, persist, or store any of your document content, locally or remotely.
Fountain+ Studio
Chrome Extension
Fountain+ Studio opens a Side Panel alongside Google Docs for live screenplay preview, analysis, and export.
What It Stores
chrome.storage.local: stores user preferences only (theme, font size, Side Panel layout). No document content is stored.- Document data is held in browser memory during the active session and discarded when you close the tab or Side Panel. It is never persisted to disk.
What It Does NOT Store
- No cookies, localStorage, sessionStorage, or IndexedDB databases
- No service worker caches (the extension's background service worker does not cache data)
- No document content is ever persisted locally or remotely
How To Clear Stored Data
You can clear Fountain+ Studio's stored preferences by removing the extension or by clearing its data in your Chrome settings (chrome://extensions → Fountain+ Studio → Details → Clear data).
Fountain+ API and Fountain Man
Web service and Discord bot
The Fountain+ API and the Fountain Man Discord bot are server-side services. They run no code on your device and therefore create no local data: no cookies, no browser storage, no caches.
For what these services process and store on the server, see the Privacy Policy.
