1. Introduction

Welcome to Cnotely! We are committed to protecting your privacy and personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal information, as well as your rights regarding this information.

This Privacy Policy applies to our web application, browser extensions, and related services (collectively the "Services"). By using our Services, you agree to the data practices described in this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect

Account Information: email address, nickname, password (stored encrypted), avatar (optional).

OAuth Authentication Information: third-party platform user ID, email, nickname, avatar, access and refresh tokens.

Note Content: saved in IndexedDB on your device, and optionally synced to GitHub or Google Drive if you choose cloud sync.

Usage Data: device information (browser type, OS) and usage logs (access time, feature usage).

3. How We Use Your Information

• Providing and maintaining services
• Authentication and security
• Improving services

• Third-party integration

4. Data Storage and Security

Local Storage: by default, your notes are stored in IndexedDB on your device — not uploaded to our servers. You can access and edit notes offline.

Cloud Storage: when you opt to sync, notes are stored in your own GitHub repository or Google Drive account.

Security Measures: encrypted password storage, HTTPS transmission, secure token management, regular security audits.

5. Third-Party Services

We integrate with GitHub and Google APIs. Their respective privacy policies apply to data they collect. Frontend libraries used: Vue.js, Element Plus, Quill, Editor.md, jsPDF, html2canvas, file-saver.

6. Your Rights

• Right of access
• Right of modification
• Right of deletion
• Right of data export
• Right to withdraw consent

7. Browser Extension Permissions

Our browser extension requests: activeTab/tabs, Storage, Context Menu, Scripting, Notifications, Side Panel, and Host Permissions. The extension only reads the DOM of the active page when you explicitly activate the clipping interface. No browsing data is collected or transmitted beyond the snippets you choose to save.

Users can view, edit, or delete stored data at any time. Uninstalling the extension deletes all related data.

8. Updates to Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Significant changes will be notified via email or a notice in the service.
