App name: ZZZ MDEditor
Developer: SMOLT STAGE,K.K.
This policy explains what information the "ZZZ MDEditor" app (the "App") handles and how it is used. Please read it before using the App.
1. Basic Policy
The App is an editor for creating and organizing prompts for generative AI and other notes in Markdown, and managing them as tasks. The App respects your privacy to the fullest extent. The documents you create (Markdown files), tags, notes, and task information are all stored only on your device and are never sent to or stored on any server or cloud operated by us.
The App does not require account registration or login, and does not collect information that identifies you.
About advertising: To keep the App free, it may display ads via Google AdMob. See Section 6 for how advertising-related information is handled.
2. Information Handled on Your Device
The App uses the following information solely for its document-creation and task-management features. All of it is processed on your device and is not sent to our servers.
2.1 Documents you create/edit and their metadata
- The body of the Markdown documents you create is saved as files within your device (the App's storage area)
- Metadata such as folder structure, titles, statuses, priorities, due dates, tags, notes, and related links (including [[WikiLink]]) is stored in a local database on your device
- These documents and metadata are never sent to or stored on the App operator's servers or the cloud
2.2 Task reminders (notifications)
- Reminder times you set on tasks are scheduled as local notifications on your device
- Scheduling and display of notifications are completed entirely on your device and are not sent to any external server
2.3 Display language (device language setting)
- The App refers to your device's language setting to determine the default display language. This information is used only on your device and is never sent or stored externally
3. Purpose of Use
The above information is used only for the following purposes.
- Creating, editing, previewing, and organizing Markdown documents (folder hierarchy, search, sorting, related-document display)
- Managing tasks (status, priority, due date, dependencies, and Kanban / agenda / calendar views)
- Notifying you on your device of task reminders at the times you set
- Sharing or exporting documents and task schedules in response to your explicit actions (see Section 6)
- Determining on-device whether a paid plan (subscription) is active, in order to hide ads and remove creation limits
4. Where Information Is Stored
The documents, metadata, and settings handled by the App are all handled solely within your device.
- ✅ Documents and metadata are stored in the App's storage area (on your device)
- ❌ No transmission to the App operator's servers
- ❌ No cloud upload, backup, or sync
- ❌ No mechanism for the developer to access your document contents
5. Provision to Third Parties
The App never independently provides or sells the documents you create, on-device data, or usage information to third parties.
However, in connection with delivering ads (Google AdMob), Google obtains certain information (see Section 6). Even so, the documents you create and the data stored on your device are never sent for advertising purposes.
6. External Services and Sharing
6.1 Sharing / exporting documents and schedules (only on your action)
The App has sharing and export features that operate only when you initiate them. You choose the destination yourself.
- Share sheet: Passes a selected Markdown file to other apps via your device's standard sharing feature
- Calendar integration: Hands a task's schedule to your device's "add event" screen (add_2_calendar), or exports an iCalendar (.ics) file for sharing. The App does not read your device's calendar or contacts
6.2 Launching an external browser
From screens such as "App info," the App may launch an external browser to view this privacy policy and similar pages. This behaves like a normal link tap.
6.3 Google Fonts (fetching web fonts)
The App uses fonts from Google Fonts for display. Fonts are fetched from Google's servers (e.g., fonts.gstatic.com) on first use and cached on your device thereafter. During this fetch, information such as your IP address is sent to Google to the extent necessary for the connection. For how Google handles information, see https://policies.google.com/privacy.
6.4 Google AdMob (ad delivery)
To keep the App free, it may use Google AdMob, an ad-delivery service provided by Google LLC, to display ads. The following information is sent to Google for ad delivery.
- Information sent: IP address, advertising ID (Android: AAID / iOS: IDFA), device and OS information, ad impression and interaction data, and other information necessary for ad delivery
- Information not sent: the documents you create, your notes, task information, and other data stored on your device
- Purpose: ad delivery, display, frequency capping, performance measurement, and fraud prevention
- Controller: Google LLC
- How Google handles the information: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads
You can reset your advertising ID or disable personalized ads from your device settings. On iOS 14 and later, the App displays the App Tracking Transparency (ATT) permission dialog, asking whether to allow use of the advertising identifier (IDFA) to optimize ads. If you decline, ads are still shown but are non-personalized. Users in the EU/UK (EEA / UK) and in regulated U.S. states may be shown a consent screen (UMP, below) as required by local law.
6.5 Google User Messaging Platform (UMP)
In applicable regions such as the EEA, UK, and regulated U.S. states, delivered ads are in principle non-personalized. In accordance with local law (e.g., GDPR), the App may display a consent form via Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) and deliver ads based on your choice. Your choice is recorded on your device. It is not shown to users outside the applicable regions.
6.6 In-app purchases (subscription)
The App offers a paid plan, "Pro" (a monthly, auto-renewing subscription), that hides ads and removes creation limits. Purchases, billing, and payment details (such as card numbers) are handled entirely by the app store that distributes the App (App Store / Google Play); we do not receive or store your payment information. Your purchase status (whether Pro is active) is recorded only on your device and is not sent to our servers. You can manage or cancel the subscription anytime in your store account settings.
7. Permissions Required
The App may request the following permissions to provide its features.
| Permission | Purpose |

Files you exported to other apps or destinations via the sharing/export features should be managed and deleted at those destinations.
10. Children's Privacy
