Our commitment
This Privacy Policy applies to the Notes mobile application and this website (together, the “Service”), provided by Shubham Mourya (“we”, “us”, or “our”). By using the Service, you acknowledge the practices described here.
Information we handle
In short: Your notes stay on your device unless you choose to use backup. We use Firebase only for analytics and crash reporting, and RevenueCat with Google Play to manage purchases.
Notes and app content
Your notes and app content are stored on your device. We do not collect or store them on our servers.
Optional Google Drive backup
If you choose to turn on backup, your app data is stored in your Google Drive account. This is an optional feature that you control; Google’s handling of your Drive data is governed by its own policies and settings.
Information you choose to send
If you contact support, we receive the information in your message, such as your name, email address, device details, and the issue you describe. Please do not send sensitive information unless it is necessary for your request.
Analytics and crash reports
We use Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics to understand how the app is used and diagnose crashes. These services may collect limited technical and usage information, such as device type, operating system, app version, device identifiers, IP address, and crash diagnostics. This helps us improve stability and performance; it does not give us access to the contents of your notes.
Optional permissions and how they work
Notes asks for permissions only when you choose a feature that needs them. You can decline or later revoke these permissions in Android settings. The relevant feature may then be unavailable, while the rest of the app continues to work.
Location reminders
If you create a location-based reminder, Notes requests precise location access, including ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, because it needs precise location to determine whether you have entered or left the location and radius you selected. For a reminder to work while the app is closed, Android may also require background location access. Notes uses this access only to monitor the saved location boundary for reminders you create; it does not require location permission if you do not use location reminders, and it does not send your location to our servers.
Scheduled alerts
If you choose an alert for a specific time, Notes may ask for Android’s alarm-and-reminders access, including SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM where applicable. This lets Android deliver a time-sensitive reminder at the scheduled time. It is not needed if you do not create time-based alerts, and you can deny or revoke it; an exact alert may then be unavailable or delivered less precisely.
Notifications and pinned notes
If you choose to pin a note or use reminders that appear as notifications, Notes asks for notification permission, including POST_NOTIFICATIONS on supported Android versions. This permission lets Android show the pinned note or reminder. It is not required if you do not use those notification-based features, and you can deny or revoke it at any time.
How we use information
- Provide, maintain, and improve Notes and its optional reminder and notification features.
- Use location only on-device to operate a location reminder you choose to create.
- Understand app usage and diagnose crashes through Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics.
- Confirm and restore access to features associated with a completed purchase.
- Respond to support requests and communicate about service-related matters.
- Protect the Service, investigate misuse, and comply with legal obligations.
We do not sell your personal information or use your note content for advertising.
Purchases
Notes is free to use and offers an optional one-time purchase for additional features. Payments are processed by Google Play; we do not receive or store your payment card or bank details. We use RevenueCat to manage purchase entitlements and restore access to purchased features. RevenueCat may process limited purchase and device information for this purpose; see the RevenueCat Privacy Policy for details.
Your choices, permissions, and deletion
You can manage app permissions through your device settings and can stop using the Service at any time by uninstalling the app. Depending on your location, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or a copy of personal information we hold about you, or to object to or restrict certain processing.
Deleting your notes and backups
We cannot delete your notes, app data, or Google Drive backups for you because we do not hold or have access to them. To delete notes, use the app’s deletion controls or remove the app’s local data from your device. If you enabled Google Drive backup, delete the backup from your Google Drive account. Deleting the app does not necessarily delete a backup stored in Google Drive.
To make a privacy request about information we do hold, such as support correspondence, or to ask a question, email shubhammourya80@gmail.com. We may need to verify your request before responding. You may also have the right to complain to your local data-protection authority.
Children’s privacy
The Service is not directed to children under the age at which they can lawfully consent to data processing in their country. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
Updates and contact
We may update this policy to reflect changes to the Service or applicable law. The “Last updated” date shows when it was last revised. Please review this page periodically.
