Simple Notes: AI Notepad (the “app”) is developed by SoftCoderX (“we,” “us,” or “our”). This policy explains how the Android app handles information and how we handle information you voluntarily send for support.
The app is designed for local note-taking, task management, reminders, and on-device AI writing. It has no user registration, application backend, advertising SDK, analytics SDK, or remote AI inference service. We do not sell or rent your personal information, use your writing for advertising, or receive your notes through normal app use.
This policy covers the app. Websites, app stores, email services, and other services you choose to use have their own privacy practices.
The app stores information in its private storage on your Android device to provide the features you use:
Information
Purpose
Notes and organization
Note titles, content, formatting, checklists, folders, tags, pinned status, Trash status, and creation or modification dates support editing, organization, search, and recovery.
Tasks and reminders
Task titles, descriptions, lists, categories, priorities, subtasks, completion status, and selected dates or reminder times support task management and local notifications.
Draft recovery files
Temporary local drafts help recover edits if the app closes or a save is interrupted.
AI conversations
Prompts, generated responses, action types, and timestamps provide a recent local AI history.
Preferences and model files
Editor, sorting, notification, app-lock, and AI settings, together with downloaded model files and download progress, support your chosen configuration.
The app also checks relevant device conditions, such as available memory and storage, supported hardware, thermal status, and network or Wi-Fi availability, to manage local AI and downloads. These checks are processed locally and are not sent to SoftCoderX as analytics or a device profile.
We do not have remote access to your local library. The app does not upload your notes, tasks, drafts, or AI history to us.
AI features use Google Gemma 4 E4B through the LiteRT-LM runtime on supported Android devices. Prompts, selected note text, and generated responses are processed on the device. They are not sent to Google, SoftCoderX, or another remote AI server for inference, and the app does not use them to train a shared AI model.
Normal note-taking and task management work offline. AI generation also works offline once the model is fully downloaded, verified, and initialized on a supported device.
The model is downloaded separately when you choose to activate AI. The download connects to Hugging Face and its content-delivery or storage providers. These services receive ordinary connection information, such as your IP address, request time, requested model file, and standard technical request headers needed to deliver it. They may process or retain connection logs under their own policies.
No note content, task content, AI prompts, or generated responses are included in model-download requests. Downloads use HTTPS. You can pause, cancel, or retry a download, choose Wi-Fi-only downloading, and delete downloaded model files in the app.
For the model host's practices, see the Hugging Face Privacy Policy. Download providers may operate infrastructure in countries other than your own.
The app uses permissions and system features for the following purposes:
Permission or feature
How it is used
Internet and network state
Download the AI model and check connection conditions, including Wi-Fi-only preferences. Internet permission is not used to send your writing to an AI service.
Notifications
Show local task reminders and model-download status. Android may request notification permission; task reminders are optional.
Biometric authentication
Support optional app locking through Android's authentication system, including device credentials where available. The app does not receive or store fingerprint data, face templates, or your device passcode.
Foreground data-sync service
Continue an explicitly requested model download with a visible system notification, subject to Android's background-execution rules.
Vibration
Provide optional haptic feedback when enabled.
System document picker
Read or write documents you select for import and export. The app does not request broad access to all files on your device.
The app does not request access to your contacts, precise location, camera, microphone, phone number, or advertising identifier. You can manage notification and other available permissions in Android settings.
Reminder notifications may display task information on your lock screen, depending on your Android notification settings. You can hide sensitive notification content or turn off notifications there.
The app does not automatically synchronize your library with a cloud service. Android automatic cloud backup and device-transfer backup are disabled for app data.
Export: You choose a destination through Android's document picker. Exported TXT, Markdown, PDF, and JSON files are not encrypted by the app. A destination you select may be local storage or a third-party cloud-storage provider.
Structured backups: A full JSON backup can include folders, notes (including notes in Trash), tasks, and subtasks. AI history, app preferences, and AI model files are not included.
Import: A supported backup you select is read and merged into the local library on your device.
Sharing: Sharing a note passes the selected note content to the app or service you choose using Android's share interface. That recipient may store or transmit the information under its own policy.
Exported and shared copies are outside the app's private storage. Deleting information in Simple Notes does not delete those copies. Please choose destinations and recipients carefully, especially for sensitive information.
Local notes, tasks, and preferences remain on your device until you remove them or clear the app's data. Notes moved to Trash remain there until you restore them or confirm permanent deletion. The app does not automatically empty Trash after a fixed period.
AI history is limited to the 30 most recent saved conversations. Older history entries are removed as new ones are saved. You can clear AI history at any time. Notes or tasks you created from an AI response are separate records and remain until you delete them.
You can:
Delete individual notes or tasks and permanently delete notes from Trash.
Use Settings → Clear AI history to remove saved prompts and responses.
Delete the downloaded AI model without deleting your notes and tasks.
Use Settings → Delete all application data, Android's clear-storage control, or uninstall the app to remove its private local data.
These actions do not remove exports, shared copies, emails, or copies retained by services you selected. Because we do not keep a server-side copy of your library, we cannot restore local data after you delete it or lose access to your device. Keep a backup if you need one.
The app uses Android's private app storage and app sandbox. Device-level encryption and access protection depend on your Android device and its settings. Network model downloads use HTTPS, and the downloaded model is checked for integrity before use.
Optional app lock uses Android authentication and applies secure-window protection against ordinary screenshots while enabled. App lock does not add separate encryption to the local database or to documents you export.
Please protect your device with a secure screen lock, keep its software updated, and safeguard exported backups. No storage or security measure can guarantee protection against every risk, particularly on a compromised device or after you share a copy.
The app has no advertising, analytics, or cloud-inference SDK. Its use of the LiteRT-LM runtime and Gemma model does not send your prompts to Google for processing.
If you obtain the paid app through Google Play or another app store, that store handles its own purchase, payment, distribution, and diagnostic information under its privacy policy. The app does not collect payment-card details or include an in-app billing or subscription system. For Google's practices, see the Google Privacy Policy.
Opening a model card, developer website, or another external link launches a service you choose to visit. Your browser and that service may process connection information or use cookies under their own policies. This app policy does not describe all processing by the SoftCoderX website or other websites.
If you email support@softcoderx.com, we receive your email address, the contents of your message, and any attachments or diagnostic information you choose to include. Please avoid sending private notes, passwords, or other sensitive material unless necessary for your request.
We use support correspondence to respond, investigate reported issues, and maintain relevant support records. Our email providers process messages to deliver and store them. We may disclose correspondence when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable legal obligations or valid legal requests.
Support correspondence is kept for as long as reasonably necessary to handle the request, maintain relevant records, and meet applicable legal obligations. You may contact us to request access, correction, or deletion of information you sent. This is separate from your local library, which we cannot access unless you voluntarily send us a copy.
You control the information you create, whether to enable AI, whether to download the model, reminder and lock settings, exports, sharing, and deletion. You can use normal notes and tasks without installing the AI model.
Depending on the laws that apply where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold, and to raise a privacy concern. Contact us using the details below. Such requests relate to information we actually hold, such as support correspondence; we cannot remotely read, change, or delete the library stored on your device.
You do not need to create or delete an account because the app has no account system. Use the app's local controls to manage your notes, tasks, and AI history.
The app does not require a name, email address, age, or account to use its local features. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the app. If you believe a child has sent personal information directly to SoftCoderX, such as through a support email, please contact us so we can review and address it.
We may update this policy to reflect changes in the app, our practices, or applicable requirements. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date. If a change requires additional notice or consent, we will provide it as applicable.
