Privacy Policy

Last Updated: April 6, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how NotePin ("we", "us", or "our") handles your information when you use our browser extension.

        Summary: We do not collect, store, or transmit your
        notes to any external server. All data stays in your browser storage and sync profile, and NotePin includes optional controls to strip query strings or hash fragments from saved URLs.
      

1. Data Collection

NotePin does not collect any personal data.

When you create a note, it is saved locally in your browser using chrome.storage.sync. This data is synced only across your own signed-in browser instances via your browser's built-in sync mechanism. We have no access to this data.

We do not send your notes to any external server.
We do not track your browsing history.
We do not collect analytics or usage data from within the NotePin extension.
Selected text you save through the context menu is processed locally inside the extension.

2. Data Storage

NotePin uses chrome.storage.sync to store your notes. This means:

Notes are stored locally in your browser profile
If sync is enabled in your browser profile, notes sync across your signed-in devices
Data is subject to browser sync storage quotas (~100 KB total)
Privacy settings can strip query strings and hash fragments from newly saved note URLs
Only valid http(s) note URLs are kept; unsupported schemes are ignored
You can export or delete all your data at any time from the fullscreen view

3. Permissions

NotePin requests the following browser permissions:

storage — To save and sync your notes across devices
activeTab — To read the current tab's URL for domain-based note filtering and badge counts
contextMenus — To provide the right-click "Save to NotePin" menu item

4. Third-Party Services

The extension uses bundled open-source assets including jQuery 4.0.0 and Lucide icon files. Shared UI styles and modal behavior are implemented locally inside the extension. No external CDNs or third-party tracking scripts are loaded.

5. Website

The NotePin website is a static site hosted on GitHub Pages. It does not use analytics, advertising tags, or other third-party tracking scripts. It also does not read or transmit your NotePin notes.

6. Your Rights

Since NotePin does not collect or store personal data on external servers, there is no personal data to access, modify, or delete. If you have any questions, you may contact us using the information below.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
