Your data is not used to train AI models or for purposes unrelated to the app’s functionality.

You can delete your data at any time directly from the app or your iCloud account.
Privacy Policy
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how CROSSNote (“CROSSNote”, “the App”) handles your information. CROSSNote is operated by OS3e Technologies (“we”, “us”, or “our”).
We are committed to protecting your privacy and designing the App in a way that minimizes data collection and maximizes your control over your information.
If you have any questions, you can contact us at:
2. Data We Collect
CROSSNote is designed to minimize data collection. Most of your data is stored locally on your device and in your personal iCloud account.
2.1 Data Stored on Your Device and iCloud
The following data is stored exclusively on your device and within your personal iCloud account:
Notes and written content
Calendar data and associated information
Health and wellness data (such as HRV, sleep, heart rate, activity, and derived insights)
App-generated metrics (readiness, recovery, stress, and similar indicators)
We do not store this data on our servers.
2.2 Analytics Data
We may collect limited, non-sensitive analytics data using services such as Mixpanel. This may include:
Feature usage
Interaction patterns
Performance metrics
This data:
does not include your personal content
does not include health data
is minimized and pseudonymized where possible
2.3 AI Interaction Data
When you use AI-powered features:
Some input data may be processed by external AI providers
This data is transmitted through a secure proxy
Direct identifiers and technical metadata (such as device or account details) are removed or minimized where possible
Only the data strictly necessary to provide the requested functionality is transmitted.
3. How We Use Data
We use data strictly to:
Provide the core functionality of the App
Generate insights and visualizations
Improve app performance and usability (via analytics)
Enable AI-powered features
We do not use your data for advertising.
We do not use your data for profiling unrelated to the app’s functionality.
4. Data Storage and Security
Your data is primarily stored:
On your device
In your personal iCloud account
This means:
You retain control over your data
Apple’s security systems apply (encryption, access control, etc.)
We do not maintain centralized databases of your personal or health data.
5. Third-Party Services
CROSSNote relies on a limited number of third-party services:
Apple (iCloud, HealthKit)
Used for data storage and health data integration.
Your data is subject to Apple’s privacy policies.
AI Providers (e.g., OpenAI)
Used to power AI features.
Data is transmitted through a proxy and minimized before being sent.
Mixpanel (Analytics)
Used to understand app usage and improve performance.
Only limited, non-sensitive data is collected.
6. AI and Data Processing
AI features in CROSSNote are designed with privacy in mind:
Data is processed through a secure proxy
Identifying information is minimized before transmission
We configure AI providers so that data is not used for training and is not retained beyond what is necessary to provide the service, in accordance with their policies
AI-generated outputs are provided for informational purposes only.
7. Data Retention
Because CROSSNote does not store your personal data on its own servers:
You control your data entirely
Data remains on your device and iCloud until you delete it
Deleting data from your device or iCloud results in permanent deletion.
Analytics data may be retained by third-party providers according to their own retention policies.
8. Your Rights (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have rights including:
Access to your data
Correction of your data
Deletion of your data
Restriction of processing
In most cases, you can exercise these rights directly through your device or iCloud account.
9. Children’s Privacy
CROSSNote is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted within the App or on our website.
Your continued use of the App indicates acceptance of the updated policy.
