Terms of Service

Notebook (free app) · Effective November 13, 2026

These terms are an agreement between you and Chris Smith, an individual developer ("we," "us") about Notebook, the free app for Android. By using the app, you agree to them. If you don't agree, don't use the app.

  1. The app is free. There is no account, and you don't need to sign in. We may change, add, or remove features.
  2. Your notes are yours. You own what you create. Your notes stay on your device, so we don't host them and need no license to them.
  3. Privacy. Our privacy policy explains how Notebook handles information. In short, the app collects nothing.
  4. Backups are your responsibility. If your device is lost, broken, or reset, or you uninstall the app, your notes may be lost permanently unless you exported them. We cannot recover them. Use Export to keep your own copies.
  5. Acceptable use. Don't use the app to break the law or to infringe others' rights, and don't reverse-engineer the app except where the law allows it.
  6. Disclaimer. The app is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, to the extent the law allows.
  7. Limit of liability. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost data or notes. Our total liability for any claim is limited to $50. Some places don't allow these limits, so they may not apply to you.
  8. Changes. We may update these terms. If a change is significant, we will tell you in the app before it takes effect.
  9. Law and courts. These terms are governed by the laws of Iowa, USA, except for its conflict-of-law rules. Disputes go to the state or federal courts in Dallas County, Iowa, or to small-claims court where you live if it qualifies.
  10. Google Play. You download Notebook through Google Play, and Google's terms also apply to that. Google isn't responsible for the app. If any part of these terms can't be enforced, the rest still applies. These terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement about the app.
