Privacy Policy
Effective date: 2026-08-04
V Memo is a free, ad-free productivity app and is not designed for children.
Data we collect
- Google account identifiers required for sign-in (subject ID, optional email/profile).
- App session data (encrypted access/refresh token records).
- Note content, reminder settings, and note metadata needed for sync and restore.
- Friend discovery and relationship data, optional profile name/image, shared event content and permissions, and in-app social notification metadata/read state.
- Operational logs and usage counters required to run and protect the service.
Friends, shared events, and notifications
- Friend discovery requires a complete email address. Searchable-by-email is enabled by default and can be turned off in Friends settings.
- Discovery uses a normalized email digest and is rate-limited by account and hashed source IP. Search input and email addresses are not logged.
- Shared event content is available only to invited members according to owner, editor, and viewer permissions.
- In-app social notifications contain references and optional display labels, not event body or email, and have a 90-day server retention setting.
- Personal reminder alarms and reminder notifications stay on your Android device.
Where data is stored
- Local notes are stored on-device in the app database.
- Cloud data is stored in AWS (DynamoDB and supporting AWS services).
- When AI features are used, the minimum note, transcript, or temporary audio data needed for that feature is sent to OpenAI.
How AI title generation works
- Only note text needed for title generation is sent.
- The app uses OpenAI with storage disabled for requests when supported by the model/service configuration.
- You can continue using the app without AI-generated titles.
Speech and microphone data
- When you are online and choose smart capture, the app sends a short, bounded recording to our authenticated backend and OpenAI for transcription.
- The temporary recording is not saved to cloud storage, logs, or the app database and is deleted from the device cache after processing.
- The transcript may be sent to OpenAI to suggest editable note, task, event, category, schedule, and reminder details. You must confirm before anything is saved.
- When smart capture is unavailable, the app falls back to Android speech recognition services available on your device. Provider behavior depends on Android and your settings.
Retention and deletion
- You can export notes at any time. JSON export also includes applicable cached social, shared-event membership, participant, and in-app notification metadata; Markdown remains note-focused.
- Use in-app account deletion or Delete account if you cannot access the app.
- Account deletion permanently removes cloud identity, discovery, friendship, notification, session, synced note/revision, and usage records. Events you own are deleted for everyone; your membership in events owned by others is ended.
