Privacy Policy

Our Commitment to Privacy

MinimalistNotes is designed with privacy at its core. Your notes are stored locally on your device using your browser itself. We do not have access to your notes, and they never leave your device unless you explicitly choose to share them.

Data We Collect

We collect minimal anonymous analytics to improve the app:

• Page views (which pages are visited)
• General usage patterns (features used)
• Browser and device type (for compatibility)
• Country-level location (not precise location)

We use privacy-focused analytics (GoatCounter and Umami) that do not use cookies and do not track you across websites.

Shared Notes

When you choose to share a note, the content is temporarily stored on our servers with a unique link. Shared notes:

• Expire automatically after 30 days
• Are accessible to anyone with the link
• Can be deleted by creating a new share link
• Do not contain any personal identifying information

Data Storage

Your notes are stored in your browser itself. This means:

• Notes persist even when you close the browser
• Clearing browser data will delete your notes
• Notes are not synced between devices
• We recommend exporting important notes as backups

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

• Cloudflare - For hosting and content delivery
• GoatCounter - Privacy-focused analytics
• Umami - Privacy-focused analytics

Your Rights

Since your data is stored locally, you have full control:

• Export your notes at any time
• Delete your notes by clearing browser data
• No account required - complete anonymity

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be effective immediately upon posting. Your continued use of MinimalistNotes after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

We recommend reviewing this policy periodically for any changes.

Disclaimer

While we design MinimalistNotes with privacy in mind, we provide this service "as is" without warranties of any kind. We cannot guarantee absolute security or privacy. You use this service at your own risk.

For sensitive or confidential information, please consider additional security measures and maintain your own backups. See our Terms of Service for full disclaimers and limitations of liability.
