Privacy policy
Last updated 6 November 2026. Plain words, and only what the app actually does.
Notes never show your name, email or account.
Location is rounded to about 1 km on your phone.
Note text and photos are wiped after 24 hours.
What other people see
Your note’s text, tag, photo (if any), how long ago it was posted, and a distance bucket like “Within 5 km”. Never your email, your account, your username or your location.
What we collect
- Account
- Your email and how you signed in (Google or email and password). We use your email to sign you in and to tell whether it’s a college or work domain. It is stored with our sign-in provider and is never shown on notes.
- Content
- Your notes, replies, photos, likes and reports.
- Approximate location
- Rounded to about 1 km on your phone, with random noise added on our server, stored with your notes until they’re deleted.
- Safety data
- Your IP address and a device identifier, used for rate limits and to stop abuse; moderation flags and reports.
- Usage analytics
- Events such as app opened, screens viewed, and notes posted, liked or shared, plus basic device info. These are linked to an internal account ID, not your email.
- This website
- The email and phone model you enter to request the beta, and whatever you send in the feedback form. Both are emailed to us through Web3Forms.
Who processes it for us
- Supabase
- Database and sign-in.
- Render
- Our servers.
- Upstash

How long we keep it

- Wiped 24 hours after posting. The note record, its replies and likes: deleted within about a day after that.
- Account data
- Until you ask us to delete your account.
- Reports, moderation flags and security logs
