How MyLog handles your diary entries and personal information โ in plain language.
MyLog (the "app", "we", or "us") is an Android diary and note-taking application that lets you write, organize, search, and secure your personal thoughts and memories. This Privacy Policy explains what the app does and does not do with information on your device.
MyLog processes the following information locally on your device only. None of it is transmitted off the device.
All diary entries, notes, and content you write in the app are stored exclusively in a local SQLite database on your device. The app does not upload, backup, or transmit this content to any server or cloud service. Your entries remain completely private and under your control.
When you search your diary, the app indexes your entries locally to provide fast search results. Search queries are processed on-device and are not stored or sent anywhere. Metadata such as entry creation date and time are stored only with the relevant entry.
MyLog uses Android's built-in biometric authentication (fingerprint, face recognition, or PIN/pattern lock) to protect access to your diary. This data is handled entirely by Android's security framework and never by MyLog itself. Biometric authentication happens on-device only.
Your preferences โ such as lock type, auto-lock timing, theme, and language โ are stored locally in the app's private storage on your device.
MyLog does not access your contacts, call logs, location, photos (except those you manually attach), microphone, camera, or online accounts.

MyLog has been designed to keep all your diary entries on your device. Even if the app requested internet access, diary entries are never transmitted.

MyLog is a general-purpose diary application and is not directed to children under 13. It does not knowingly collect personal information from children. Since the app stores all data on-device and has no online component, it poses no data-collection risk to users of any age.
MyLog does not integrate advertising networks, analytics SDKs, or social login providers. It does not embed any third-party trackers. The app is built with Android's native libraries only.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights under privacy laws such as the GDPR or CCPA. Since MyLog does not collect or hold any of your personal data on our servers, there is nothing for us to access, correct, export, or delete on your behalf โ full control rests with you on your device. You can export your entries by sharing them from the app, or delete all data by uninstalling the app.
We may update this Privacy Policy if the app's features change. When we do, we will revise the "Effective" date above and publish the updated policy at this address. Continued use of the app after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
