Privacy Policy

Effective Date: April 20, 2026

Developer: Afloton Private Limited

PrivNotesPro is designed as a privacy-focused, local-first application. While the app operates primarily offline, it utilizes limited internet connectivity to enhance the user experience through link previews and external web access.

1. Information Collection and Use

We do not collect, store, or transmit your personal notes or files to any external servers.

• Note Content & Media: All text, images, and videos remain stored exclusively on your device.
• Link Metadata Fetching: When you input a URL, the app fetches metadata (title/description) directly from the third-party site. We do not track or store your URL history.
• No User Profiling: We do not track your behavior, usage patterns, or identity.

2. Device Permissions

The app requests minimal permissions to maintain your privacy:

• Internet (INTERNET & ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE): Used solely to fetch metadata for link previews and to allow you to open external links.
• Biometrics (USE_BIOMETRIC): Used to secure the app locally. Biometric data is handled by the Android system; the app never accesses or stores your fingerprint/face data.
• Photo & File Selection: PrivNotesPro uses the Android System Photo Picker. This ensures the app does not have broad access to your photo library; it only accesses the specific files you explicitly select.

3. Third-Party Services

• On-Device Processing: The app uses Google ML Kit for link previews and digital ink recognition. All processing occurs locally on your device and no data is sent to Google servers for these features.
• External Links: Interactions with third-party websites via links are subject to those sites' own privacy policies.
• No Analytics/Ads: PrivNotesPro does not contain third-party analytics or advertising SDKs.

4. Data Storage & Security

• Local Storage: Your data is stored in the app’s private directory.
• No Cloud Backup: We do not provide cloud synchronization. You are responsible for backing up your data using your device's native backup tools.

5. Compliance (GDPR, CCPA, & Google Play)

PrivNotesPro complies with global privacy standards by design:

• Right to Erasure: Uninstalling the app immediately deletes all locally stored data.
• Data Portability: You manage your own backups via your device's storage.
• Children’s Privacy: Since no personal data is collected, the app is safe for all users.

6. Changes to this Policy

We may update this policy to reflect new features. Continued use of the app constitutes acceptance of the current terms.
