Privacy Policy

Service

1xNote is a free web-based service that allows users to create encrypted notes that they can share over the Internet as unique, one-time-use HTTPS URLs (hereafter referred to as "links") that expire by default after the first access from any web browser.

The act of sending the link is the full responsibility of the user, as 1xNote does not provide any means for sending the link.

Depending on the communication channel you choose (e.g., email, fax, SMS, phone, instant messaging, social media), there may be some risk that third parties may intercept your communication, learn the link being communicated, and thus be able to read your message.

Notes and Their Contents Handling

Once a note is created and accessed, its data is removed from the 1xNote system to ensure that it cannot be retrieved. If a time interval for deletion is set by the user, the note will remain until the specified time expires, regardless of how many times it is accessed.

If a note remains unread for 30 days, it is automatically deleted. The system is designed to prevent unauthorized access, and even if the database is compromised, the encrypted notes cannot be read without the decryption links, which are never stored by 1xNote.

Usage of IP Addresses

IP addresses are processed to allow communication with the 1xNote servers. IP address info is deleted as soon as it's no longer needed for communication purposes.

Pseudo-Anonymous Data

The creator of the note may include personal data in the note. Although this data is encrypted, it can be decrypted and is therefore pseudo-anonymous (personal) data. In any case, the creator of the note cannot be identified from the 1xNote database.

1xNote is not able to decrypt the note and access the data (personal or otherwise) introduced by the creator since 1xNote is never in possession of the decryption key which is contained only in the link.

Disclaimer of Liability

1xNote disclaims any responsibility for the content of the note.

Disclosure to Third Parties

1xNote does not share, sell, or use your information in any way not disclosed in this Privacy Policy.

Use of Cookies

1xNote uses cookies to improve the use of the service. Cookies are also used for advertising purposes.

Non-functional cookies are used for commercial and advertising purposes. Non-functional cookies are placed by third parties. In the case of EU citizens, these cookies do not store personal information (non-personalized ads).

Children

1xNote does not target or intend to attract children under the age of 16. Minors must obtain the express consent of their parents or legal guardians before accessing or using 1xNote.
