Arkivelo is a LEFTHERA product (lefthera.com).
What stays on your device
- Everything you write in Arkivelo (notes, previous versions, folders, attachments, sketches, reminders, preferences) is stored only on your device, inside the browser or the app. It is not sent to any server: today Arkivelo has no servers that receive notes.
- The vault and protected notes are encrypted on your device (256-bit AES-GCM) with a key derived from your password. The password never leaves your device and nobody, including us, can read or recover it.
- Backups you export are files you save wherever you choose. If you export or share a note (PDF, email, other apps), the content goes to the app or service you pick, under its own rules.
The website and web app
arkivelo.com and the web app are served by Cloudflare. Like any online service, Cloudflare records the IP address and browser type of requests in technical logs, to deliver the pages and protect them from abuse. The pages load no scripts, fonts or images from other sites.
No telemetry
No cookies, no ads, no analytics, no tracking, no usage statistics. That's why there is no consent banner: there is nothing to consent to.
If you write to us
Email to @arkivelo.com addresses goes through Cloudflare Email Routing to a Gmail inbox (Google). We use your address and message only to reply.
Why we process this data
- To answer your messages: GDPR art. 6(1)(b).
- For site security and against abuse (technical logs): art. 6(1)(f).
How long
- Notes and vault: on your device, until you delete them or clear the browser's or app's data.
- Email: as long as needed to handle your request; you can ask us to delete it at any time.
- Technical logs at Cloudflare: for the period set by the provider.
Who else processes data
Cloudflare (website, web app and email forwarding) and Google (the inbox that receives email), possibly outside the European Union, with the safeguards required by the GDPR. Neither receives your notes.
Future sync
We are designing optional sync between devices with end-to-end encryption: notes would be encrypted on your device before leaving it. We will update this policy before turning it on, and it will always be your choice.
Children
Arkivelo collects no personal data from anyone, children included.
Your rights
You have the right of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection. Since we don't store your notes, you get a copy directly from the app (Export backup) and erase them by deleting notes or the app's data. For anything else write to [email protected]. You can also lodge a complaint with your data protection authority.
