Welcome to Notes
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the Notes mobile application and this website (together, the “Service”), provided by Shubham Mourya (“we”, “us”, or “our”). By downloading, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
Using Notes
Notes is a personal productivity app that lets you create and manage notes, including displaying supported notes in notifications. The core app is free to use. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the Service for personal, lawful purposes, subject to these Terms and applicable store rules.
The Service is not a backup, emergency, or records-management service. Keep your own copies of anything important.
Optional permissions and reminders
Some features need optional Android permissions. Notes asks for them only when you choose the relevant feature, and you may decline or revoke them in device settings. Declining a permission does not prevent you from using the rest of Notes, but the feature that depends on it may not work.
Location reminders use precise location, including ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION, to detect when you arrive at or leave a saved location and radius. Android may also require background location access so an active reminder can work while the app is closed. Location access is not required unless you create a location-based reminder.
Time-specific alerts may require Android’s alarm-and-reminders access, including SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM where applicable, so Android can schedule a reminder for the selected time. Notifications, including pinned notes and notification reminders, may require POST_NOTIFICATIONS on supported Android versions. These permissions are optional: if you do not use the related feature, Notes does not need them; if you deny or revoke one, that feature may be unavailable or less precise.
Optional one-time purchase
Notes offers an optional one-time purchase that unlocks additional features for the lifetime of the app. The price and what is included are shown in Google Play before you complete the purchase. Payment is processed by Google Play, not by us, and its terms and policies apply.
We use RevenueCat to manage purchase entitlements and help restore access to purchased features. RevenueCat’s handling of purchase-related information is described in its Privacy Policy. Purchases are tied to the Google account used to complete the transaction and can generally be restored through Google Play on eligible devices. Refund requests and payment issues are handled by Google Play in accordance with its policies and applicable law.
Your responsibilities
You are responsible for the content you create and for using the Service lawfully. You agree not to misuse the Service, including by attempting to interfere with it, reverse engineer it where prohibited by law, bypass security measures, or use it to create, store, or share unlawful or harmful material.
Your content
You retain ownership of the notes and other content you create. You give us only the limited permission needed to process that content in order to provide the Service to you. You are responsible for ensuring you have the rights to any content you enter.
Your notes and app data are stored on your device, and optional backups are stored in your Google Drive account. Because we do not hold this content, we cannot access or delete it for you. You can delete notes and local app data from your device; if you enabled backup, you can delete the backup from Google Drive.
Good to know: You control your notes. Please keep a copy of information you cannot afford to lose.
Third parties and availability
Downloads, payments, purchase management, updates, optional Google Drive backup, and certain features may be governed by third-party platforms, such as Google Play, RevenueCat, and Google Drive, and their terms and policies. We are not responsible for third-party services or content.
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue all or part of the Service at any time. We will try to give reasonable notice of material changes where practical, but cannot guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation.
Disclaimers and limitation of liability
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available” to the extent permitted by law. We do not guarantee that it will always be secure, available, or error-free, or that it will meet every need.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, profits, goodwill, or use arising from the Service. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
Ending use
You may stop using the Service at any time by uninstalling the app. We may suspend or end access to the Service if we reasonably believe these Terms have been violated or if required to protect the Service, users, or others.
Changes and contact
We may revise these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be posted here with a new “Last updated” date. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised Terms.
