Note to Self privacy policy
Note to Self is an app by Adiso (the Netherlands). It lets you quickly email yourself a note. We keep it simple: the app collects as little as possible, everything stays on your phone, and Adiso has no servers of its own that your data passes through.
In short
- Your notes go straight from your phone to your own email account; they never pass through Adiso.
- The app only asks permission to send email. It cannot read your email.
- No account with us, no tracking, no analytics, no ads.
What data the app uses
What you type or share. The text, links and attachments of a note are stored on your phone until they have been sent, and are then deleted. They only go to the email address you choose as the recipient.
Settings. Your recipients, tags, sender name and other settings are stored on your phone only. If you use your own mail server (SMTP), your password is stored encrypted on your phone and only sent to that server.
Link previews. When you share a link, the app fetches that page directly from your phone to show its title, summary and image. The website sees a normal request, just like when you open a page in your browser.
Google user data
When you sign in with Google, Note to Self requests access to:
- Send email on your behalf (
gmail.send): to send the notes you write to the recipients you choose. The app does not read, search, modify or delete any email. - Your email address (
email): to show which account you are signed in with and to use that address as the sender and first recipient.
This data is only used on your phone. It is not sent to Adiso or anyone else, not sold, not used for advertising and not used to train AI models.
Note to Self's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Third-party services
To sign in and send, the app uses Google Play services and Google's Gmail API, which are also covered by Google's privacy policy. The app contains no other third-party services for analytics or advertising.
Deleting your data
- You can sign out of Google in the app's Settings.
- You can revoke Note to Self's access at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
- Uninstalling the app deletes all data on your phone. Notes you have sent are in your own mailbox, which you manage yourself.
Children
Note to Self is not intended for children under 13.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update this page and the date at the top.
