Privacy policy

Stubnote is a journal you keep for yourself and, if you like, share with a few people you invite. This policy explains what the app stores, why, and how to delete it. In short: we keep only what you put in, we don't sell it, we don't show ads, and we don't track you.

What we collect

• Your account. Your email address, and the name from Apple or Google if you sign in with them (you can change it in the app). Sign in with Apple may give us a private relay email instead of your real one.
• What you write and add. Notebook names, notes, photos, videos, voice recordings, and the scribbles you leave. This is the app's whole purpose, and it's stored so you can see it on any device.
• A place name, if you allow it. When you start a note, the app can ask your phone for your approximate location and turn it into a place name, like “Bangsar”. Only that name is saved with the note; your coordinates are never stored or sent to us. You can say no, or turn it off in your phone's settings.
• Who's in which notebook. Membership, roles, invite links you create, and when you last opened a shared notebook, so we can show you what's new.
• Reports. If you report a scribble, we keep the report and your reason so we can review it.

We don't use analytics, advertising or tracking tools, and we don't collect contacts, browsing history or device identifiers for tracking.

Who can see it

Notebooks are private by default. A notebook you share can be read by the people in it, who can also see each other's names and scribbles. Nobody else can open it, and invite links work once and expire after 7 days. We never sell your data or share it with advertisers.

We use a few services to run the app, and they process data only on our behalf:

• Supabase hosts our database, sign-in and file storage.
• Apple and Google handle Sign in with Apple and Google Sign-In, and your phone's own location service turns your position into a place name.

Keeping it safe

Data is sent over encrypted connections, and access rules in the database make sure only you and the people in a notebook can read it. Photos, videos and voice notes are served through short-lived private links.

How long we keep it

We keep your data until you delete it. Deleting a note removes it and its files. Deleting your account removes your account, your notebooks, the notes and files you added, and your scribbles, for everyone they were shared with. Backups held by our hosting provider roll over within 30 days.

Your choices and rights

• Edit your name, or delete notes, scribbles and notebooks, any time in the app.
• Leave a shared notebook, or remove people from one you own.
• Delete your account in the app under you → delete account, or see how to delete your account.
• Ask us for a copy of your data, or to correct or delete it, by emailing yusufmohdsuhair@gmail.com.

Children

Stubnote isn't meant for children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect data from them. If you think a child has signed up, email us and we'll delete the account.

Changes

If this policy changes in a way that matters, we'll update the date above and tell you in the app.
