Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-06-23

Aino LifeOS, Aino Desktop, and Aino mobile are local-first note-taking apps. This Privacy Policy explains what information we process when you use Aino, Aino Desktop, and Aino Pro.

Local notes and files

Your notes, attachments, tasks, and vault configuration are stored in folders you choose on your device or in your own sync provider, such as iCloud Drive. Aino Desktop's core editor, file management, tasks, calendar, and review features, and Aino mobile's Quick Journal, widgets, and file management features do not upload your note content to our servers.

Purchases and subscriptions

Aino mobile subscriptions and Aino Desktop one-time licenses are processed by platform billing providers or official purchase channels:

  • iOS purchases use Apple App Store billing.
  • Android purchases may use RevenueCat Web Billing.
  • Aino Desktop one-time licenses may use the official purchase page, payment providers, and activation-code delivery.

RevenueCat helps us check subscription status, restore purchases, and unlock Aino Pro. Desktop purchase and activation flows help us issue, verify, and manage Aino Desktop Pro licenses. We may receive subscription or license metadata such as product identifier, entitlement status, expiration date, anonymized app user ID, order ID, email address, activation code, authorized device count, and purchase management URL. We do not receive your full payment card number.

AI and third-party services

Aino Desktop AI features require you to configure your own model API keys, OpenAI-compatible endpoints, or local CLI agents. When you use those features, selected note content, prompts, or context may be sent to the third-party model service or local tool you configured. Aino does not provide hosted AI inference for Desktop by default.

Support

If you contact support, we process the information you choose to send, such as your email address, support ID, device details, screenshots, and issue description.

Analytics

The Aino app does not require analytics to use your local notes. The website may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate traffic and improve documentation.

Third-party services

If you connect optional third-party services, such as calendar providers, AI model providers, cloud storage, App Store billing, RevenueCat Web Billing, or Desktop purchase and activation services, your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies.
