Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 1, 2025


Introduction

Welcome to Yotes. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring you have a positive experience on our website and while using our extension.

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have in relation to it. We hope you will take the time to read it carefully.

Information We Collect

The Yotes extension only stores your notes locally in your browser using Chrome's storage API. We do not collect, transmit, or store your notes on our servers.

Information stored locally:

  • The notes you write for each webpage
  • Quotes you save from webpages
  • URLs of pages where you've created notes

Website analytics:

Our website uses basic analytics to help us understand how visitors interact with our site. This may include:

  • Pages visited
  • Time spent on the website
  • Referring websites
  • General location data (country level only)

How We Use Your Information

We use website analytics data solely to improve our website and extension. This helps us:

  • Analyze how our website is used to make improvements
  • Diagnose technical issues
  • Identify areas where we can enhance user experience

We do not sell your data to third parties or use it for marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

Data Security

Your notes and highlights created with Yotes are stored locally in your browser. This means:

  • Your data stays on your device
  • We cannot access your notes
  • Your notes are private to you

If you clear your browser data or uninstall the extension without backing up your notes, they will be permanently deleted.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access and export your notes (through the extension's features)
  • Delete your notes at any time
  • Uninstall the extension completely

Since we don't collect personal information through the extension, there is no need for a formal process to request your data from us.

Changes to This Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.

We recommend that you review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
