Privacy Policy

Last updated: 3/6/2026

TL;DR - We Literally Cannot See Your Data

Password Notebook stores everything in your browser's localStorage. We don't have servers, databases, or any way to access your passwords. Your data never leaves your device.

Data Storage and Collection

What We Store Locally

  • Your password entries (service names, usernames, passwords, notes)
  • Application preferences and settings
  • All data is stored in your browser's localStorage only

What We Don't Collect

  • No personal information
  • No account details (there are no accounts)
  • No usage analytics or tracking
  • No cookies for tracking purposes
  • No server-side storage of any kind

How Your Data Is Protected

  • Local-only storage: Your passwords never leave your browser
  • No network requests: The app works entirely offline after loading
  • No servers: We don't have any servers that could be compromised
  • No accounts: No registration, login, or authentication systems
  • Open source: You can review our code to verify these claims

Data Portability

You maintain complete control over your data:

  • Export your data anytime in JSON or TXT format
  • Import your data to move between browsers or devices
  • Delete all data by clearing your browser's localStorage
  • No vendor lock-in or proprietary formats

Third-Party Services

Password Notebook is hosted on Vercel for delivery, but:

  • Static files only - no server-side processing
  • No data passes through our servers
  • Standard web hosting logs may be collected by Vercel (IP addresses, access times)
  • We don't access or analyze any hosting logs

Browser Security

Your security depends on your browser's security:

  • Keep your browser updated
  • Use browser security features and extensions
  • Be cautious of browser extensions that might access localStorage
  • Consider using a dedicated browser profile for password management

Limitations

Because we prioritize privacy, we have some limitations:

  • No cloud sync between devices
  • No data recovery if you lose access to your browser
  • No customer support for lost passwords
  • No breach notifications (because we have no data to breach)

Changes to This Policy

If we change this privacy policy, we'll update the date at the top of this page. Since we don't collect contact information, we can't notify you directly of changes.

Questions?

Since we don't collect any personal data, we don't have much more to say about privacy. The source code is available for review if you want to verify our claims.
