Privacy Policy for dotz.my

Welcome to dotz.my. We value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our note-taking application and website (collectively, the "Service").

By accessing or using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We only collect information that is necessary to provide you with a seamless and secure note-taking experience.

• Personal Information: When you register, we collect your email address and basic profile information (such as your name and profile picture if you sign in via Google).
• User-Generated Content: This includes the text, tags, images, and organization of the notes you create. Your notes are stored securely and are only accessible by you (and anyone you explicitly choose to share them with).
• Usage Data: We may collect non-identifying information about how you interact with the Service (e.g., device type, operating system, and feature usage) to help us improve performance and stability.

2. Google API Services User Data Policy

If you choose to authenticate using Google Sign-In, dotz.my's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

• Purpose: We only use Google data to facilitate authentication and personalize your account profile.
• No Advertising: We do not use your Google data for serving ads or for any marketing purposes.
• Data Integrity: We do not sell or lease your Google data to any third parties.

3. How We Protect and Use Your Information

We use your data to operate, maintain, and improve our features, including real-time collaboration and secure syncing across devices.

• Security First: We utilize industry-standard encryption (SSL/TLS) for all data in transit. Your content is stored in secure databases provided by our third-party hosting partners, which utilize robust encryption at rest.
• Collaboration: When you share a note with others, we use secure real-time synchronization to ensure changes are reflected instantly between authorized users.
• Local Privacy: For our Desktop application, some settings and authentication tokens are stored securely on your local device to enable faster access and offline capabilities.

4. Third-Party Service Providers (Subprocessors)

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties.

To provide our Service, we work with trusted third-party providers who host our application and manage our infrastructure. These partners are strictly limited to using your data as necessary to perform these services on our behalf.

• Infrastructure: We use third-party service providers to host our application (e.g., Vercel) and manage our database and user authentication (e.g., Supabase).

5. Your Rights and Data Control

You are in full control of your data.

• Content Deletion: You are free to delete any content you create within the app at any time. When you delete a note or other content, it is permanently removed from our active databases.
• Data Export: We are committed to data portability. You can export your notes in standard formats to ensure you never lose access to your thoughts.
• Access and Correction: You may review and update your personal information at any time within your account profile.

6. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal obligations. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Effective Date."
