Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 1, 2025 ยท Effective date: January 1, 2025
๐ก๏ธ Short version: Quillo does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Your notes never leave your device. We have no servers, no accounts, and no analytics.
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how Quillo ("the App", "we", "us", or "our") handles information when you use our Android application. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.
By using Quillo, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
2. Information We Collect
We collect no personal information whatsoever. Specifically:
- We do not collect your name, email address, or any identifying information
- We do not collect the content of your notes
- We do not use analytics or crash-reporting SDKs
- We do not use advertising SDKs or serve ads
- We do not require account registration
- We do not access your contacts, camera, microphone, or location
- We do not track your behavior or usage patterns
3. Data Storage
All data you create in Quillo โ including notes, categories, and settings โ is stored exclusively on your device using Android's local Room database. This data:
- Never leaves your device unless you explicitly choose to export a note
- Is not backed up to any cloud service by Quillo (though Android's own backup service may back up app data according to your device settings)
- Is deleted when you uninstall the app
4. Permissions Used
Quillo requests only the permissions necessary for its features:
- Biometric / Fingerprint: Used solely to authenticate access to locked notes. Biometric data is processed by Android's system API and never accessed or stored by Quillo.
- Storage (Write): Used only when you explicitly export a note to your Downloads folder. We do not read any files outside the app.
We do not request any other permissions (location, camera, microphone, contacts, etc.).
5. PIN Lock & Biometric Security
Quillo offers an optional PIN lock feature. Your PIN is stored locally on your device and is never transmitted anywhere. Fingerprint authentication uses Android's official Biometric API โ your biometric data is processed entirely within Android's secure hardware enclave and is never accessible to Quillo.
6. Export Functionality
When you use the Export feature, your note is saved as a .txt file to your device's Downloads folder. This export happens locally and involves no network transmission. You are solely responsible for any data you share after exporting.
7. Third-Party Services
Quillo does not integrate any third-party SDKs, analytics services, advertising networks, or external APIs. The app functions entirely offline with no outbound network connections.
8. Children's Privacy
Quillo is rated "Everyone" and is suitable for all ages. Because we collect no personal data from any users, there is no special concern regarding children's data. We comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and do not knowingly collect any information from children under 13.
9. Data Security
Since all data is stored locally on your device, security is primarily managed by your device's own security features (screen lock, encryption). We recommend keeping your Android device updated and using a screen lock. The optional PIN/fingerprint feature in Quillo provides an additional layer of protection for sensitive notes.
10. Your Rights
Since we hold no data about you on any servers, there is nothing for us to provide, correct, or delete. All your data is on your device and under your control:
- Access: Your data is in the app on your device.
- Deletion: Uninstalling the app removes all app data, or use in-app deletion features.
- Portability: Use the Export feature to get your notes as .txt files.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the new policy.
