3. How We Share Your Information
We do not share your personal information with third parties except as described in this Privacy Policy. We may share information about you in the following circumstances:
3.1 With Service Providers
We may share information with third-party service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as cloud storage providers, data backup services, email service providers, and customer support providers. These service providers are authorized to use your information only as necessary to provide these services to us and are obligated to protect your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
3.2 For Legal Reasons
We may disclose information about you if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to:
- Comply with applicable laws, regulations, or legal processes, such as a court order or subpoena.
- Protect the rights, property, or safety of NoteFlow, our users, or others.
- Prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Services.
- Enforce our Terms of Service or other agreements.
3.3 With Your Consent
We may share your information with third parties when we have your explicit consent to do so. For example, if you choose to share a note or calendar event with a friend, we will share that specific content as directed by you.
3.4 Aggregated or Anonymized Information
We may share aggregated or anonymized information that does not identify you individually with third parties for research, marketing, or other purposes. For example, we might share data about the average number of notes created per user or general trends in habit tracking without disclosing any personal information.
4. Data Retention
We retain information about you for as long as necessary to provide the Services to you and to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. The length of time we retain information depends on the type of information and the purposes for which we collected it.
If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal information, except to the extent we are required to retain such information by law or for legitimate business purposes, such as preventing fraud, enforcing our Terms of Service, or resolving disputes. Please note that some User Content may remain in backup copies for a reasonable period of time after deletion, but will not be accessible to other users or used to provide the Services to you.
5. Security of Your Information
We take reasonable measures to help protect information about you from loss, theft, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These measures include administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information.
Some of the security measures we use include:
- Encryption of data in transit using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols.
- Encryption of data at rest for sensitive information.
- Secure storage of passwords using industry-standard hashing algorithms.
- Access controls to limit who within our organization can access your information.
- Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments.
However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. Therefore, while we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. You should take steps to protect your account, including using a strong password and not sharing your password with others.
