NoteInSitePrivacy Policy
NoteInSite extension for the Chrome browser. Last updated:
In short. NoteInSite stores only the notes you created yourself, and only in your browser's local storage. The extension makes no network requests, collects no statistics, doesn't read the content of the pages you visit and shares nothing with anyone.
Contents
1. What data the extension processes
NoteInSite stores only what you created yourself:
- the text of your notes and their formatting — font, size, text color and note color;
- the note's position on the page: coordinates, the CSS selector of the anchor element and the offset from it, the size, and the “pinned to the screen” and “collapsed” flags;
- the address of the page or site the note belongs to (origin and path, without the query string);
- extension settings: whether notes are shown, the list of sites where they are turned off, the default formatting of new notes, popup window sizes for links.
None of this is linked to your identity: the extension doesn't ask for a name, an email address or an account, and doesn't create any user identifiers.
2. Where this data is kept
Everything listed above is written to the browser's local storage
(chrome.storage.local) on your device. No syncing between devices
is used, and no copies are made on third-party servers. The author of the extension has no
access to this data.
3. What the extension does not do
- it doesn't send any data to the author's or third-party servers — it makes no network requests at all;
- it doesn't collect statistics or analytics and uses no counters or trackers;
- it doesn't read, store or transmit the content of the pages you visit, data you enter on websites, cookies, browsing history or credentials;
- it doesn't download or run code from the internet — all of its code is in the installed package;
- it doesn't show ads and doesn't sell data.
4. Why access to all websites is needed
Permission to access pages (<all_urls>) is required because
a note can be placed on any website, and there's no way to list those sites in advance.
The access is used only to draw the extension's own notes layer
in an isolated container (Shadow DOM), put notes back in their places and insert
an empty spacer block in place of each note so that the page text moves aside
for it. All of this happens in the copy of the page open in your browser: the site's content
is not read, stored or sent anywhere.
| Permission | Purpose |
|---|---|
storage | Local storage of notes and visibility settings. |
unlimitedStorage | Lifting the size limit of local storage so that notes keep saving even when there are many of them. The data stays on the device. |
contextMenus | Context menu items: “Add a note here”, showing and hiding notes. |
<all_urls> | Drawing the notes layer and inserting spacers into the layout of the open page on a site the user has chosen. |
5. Links in notes
If you inserted a link into a note and clicked it, the browser opens the address you specified in a separate window or tab. From then on, the privacy policy of the website the link leads to applies; NoteInSite doesn't affect that page and doesn't store data about the visit.
6. Data of this website
The website noteinsite.atmos.ho.ua is a set of static pages. It uses no
forms, registration, advertising or analytics counters, sets no cookies
and loads no external scripts or fonts. It remembers your RU / EN language choice
in your browser's local storage; this value never leaves your device.
Like any web server, the hosting provider may keep technical records of requests (IP address, date and time, requested address, browser version) in server logs. These records are created by the provider, are used only to run and protect the server and are not linked to your notes.
7. Deleting data
- a single note — the ✕ button on the note itself;
- all notes of a page — the “Delete all notes on this page” button in the extension window;
- all data at once — removing the extension from Chrome erases its local storage.
You can make a backup beforehand with the “Export” button: the JSON file is saved to your computer and restored with the “Import” button.
8. Children
The extension is not specifically intended for children and collects no personal data from anyone, including children.
9. Changes to this policy
A new version is published at this same address with an updated date at the top of the page. Significant changes will also be noted in the version history.
