Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 7, 2026
Noutify ("we", "us") makes a personal capture app that turns your typed notes, voice recordings, and photos into short, organized highlights. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. Contact: manavtoiit@gmail.com.
What we collect
- Account data: your email address and a name. Passwords are stored only as a salted bcrypt hash — never in plain text.
- Your content: the notes you capture — typed text, voice recordings, and photos — and the highlights extracted from them.
- Personal-fact memories: to make your highlights smarter, Noutify keeps short facts about you — names, places, routines — that you share in the "About you" onboarding or that are inferred from your notes. You can see and delete all of these (see "Your controls" below).
- Optional feedback: any message or rating you send through the in-app feedback form.
- Basic technical data: app version and server error/diagnostic logs needed to keep the service running.
We do not sell your data, show ads, or embed third-party analytics or tracking SDKs in the app or on our website.
How your content is processed
Your notes, highlights, and account data are stored on Noutify's own server (our database and file storage). AI processing uses third-party AI service providers (large-language-model, vision, and speech services), which act as our AI subprocessors. The specific providers may change over time as we improve the service; this policy applies regardless of which provider is in use.
- Typed and transcribed text is sent to a language model to extract highlights.
- Photos you capture are sent to a vision model to read the text in them.
- Voice recordings are sent to a speech model to be transcribed.
In each case, only the content needed to generate the result is sent — the note text, photo, or recording itself. We never send your identity or sensitive account data to AI providers: no name, email address, password, or account identifiers accompany your content, so the provider cannot link it to you. The content is used solely to generate the result (the transcription, extracted text, or highlights), which is returned to our server. We do not use your content to train AI models.
If the cloud AI service is unavailable, some processing (speech-to-text, photo text extraction) may instead run on open-source models on our own server; in that case the content does not leave our infrastructure.
Personal-fact memories are extracted and stored by a memory service that we self-host on our own infrastructure; extracting and recalling those facts also uses the AI providers described above, under the same rules (no identity or account data attached).
Noutify is a connected app, not an offline/on-device one: your captures travel over the network (encrypted in transit) to our server, and in the normal path to our AI providers for processing.
Where it's stored and for how long
- Notes and highlights stay in our database until you delete them. Deletion is soft first: deleted items go to a trash and are recoverable for 30 days, then permanently removed.
- Voice recordings and photos are stored on our server for as long as the note they belong to exists. They are permanently deleted when the note is purged from trash (30 days after you delete it) or when you delete your account.
- Personal-fact memories are kept until you delete them individually, wipe them all, or delete your account.
- Account deletion: you can delete your account at any time from Profile → Delete account in the app. This permanently removes your account, notes, highlights, voice recordings, photos, and memories.
Your controls
- Edit or delete any note or highlight; restore deleted items from trash within 30 days, or leave them to be purged automatically.
- See and manage what Noutify has learned about you in Profile → "What Noutify knows about you" — view every stored memory, delete any single one, or wipe them all.
- Delete your account in the app (Profile → Delete account), which removes everything listed above.
- Email us at manavtoiit@gmail.com for data access or deletion requests.
Permissions we request
- Microphone — only while you record a voice note.
- Camera / Photos — only when you take or choose a photo to capture.
You can decline or revoke these in your device settings; the related capture mode simply won't be available.
Security
Passwords are hashed with bcrypt; access to your data requires your authenticated session token. We use reasonable technical measures to protect data in transit and at rest. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children
Noutify is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect their data.
Changes
We may update this policy; material changes will be reflected here with a new date. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised policy.
