What are your views on censorship?

We limit the information we collect (we only collect what’s necessary to create your account, maintain and improve our services, and provide support), and we believe strongly in creative freedom. We’re not interested in being the content police.

You can read more about this in our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

What kind of content is allowed in Ellipsus?

Ellipsus was founded on principles of user autonomy and privacy. We’re deeply committed to creative freedom (in fact, we’re pretty outspoken about it), and believe that writers should own their words, ideas, and creative futures without fear of censorship from hostile entities.

Coming from fanfic backgrounds, we’ve witnessed many bans and shutdowns of writing platforms over the years, and we have no interest in policing what creatives do. We want Ellipsus to provide a safe and secure space where you can write whatever you want.

Is fan fiction allowed on Ellipsus?

Yes indeed! We absolutely support fanfic (and might write it ourselves 👀).

Paying for Ellipsus Plus features does not mean your fan fiction (or writing in general) is being monetized. Ellipsus Plus supports our hosting platform—it has nothing to do with the content of your writing.

What about public content?

If you share your writing publicly via a Reader link or Ellipsus’s sharing features, it’s subject to our guidelines. Beyond that, we don’t impose content restrictions on what you write privately in Ellipsus.
