The interface looks nice, but apparently they don't encrypt your novel. In other words, if the devs want to go into the database and read (or worse) your WIP, they can. Not cool.

A forced arbitration clause puts this in the same category as cable companies in being anti-consumer. Some really odd sounding security policies also make a decent app less desirable.
This software rocks, I just love it! Please elaborate on your comment. It makes no sense to me. I use Novelize with no security issues, my novels are safe and secure and accessible on all platforms including android and Chromebook. Stable as can be, brilliant and fast. Please explain your comment further. I will go so far as saying Novelize is the best writing software I have ever used to date, and for Novilists, it's far better than Scrivener.

@tylerjasonj The software has a clause that says you can only use forced arbitration if you have some issue with them, i.e. they cost you millions of dollars in a lost manuscript you can't sue them. That's a pretty unfriendly thing. I don't like it. As for security they literally can read your novel anytime they want and admit it, it would just be slightly difficult. You have zero privacy with the platform, if say someone gained access to the server illegally they can take all your writing and make it public. You can read it for yourself, but since you marked me unhelpful I'm not sure you'd understand it. https://getnovelize.com/articles/secure-novel-cloud
