Privacy Policy

Effective date: [DATE]. This policy covers the Noterva website, the Noterva products (Reference Manager, Journals, Assistant), and the Noterva Community panel.

The principles

  • Data minimisation. We collect only what a stated purpose requires.
  • Purpose limitation. Data collected for one purpose is not quietly reused for another.
  • Stated retention. We keep data for a stated period, then delete it.
  • Your rights. You may ask to view or delete your data at any time.
  • We never sell your data. To anyone. For anything.

The website

The website collects what you submit through the contact form (name, email, message) and standard server logs. Form submissions are used to answer you, and for nothing else.

The products

Noterva Assistant processes the text you select locally, on your own computer. Selected passages are not uploaded to us, stored by us, or used to train anything.

Noterva (Reference Manager) and Noterva Journals store your library and account data to provide the service. Venue records shown against your sources are our data, not yours, and carry the date we checked them. Full product privacy policies are linked from each store listing.

The community panel

Panel data — your profile, participation history, and points balance — is used only to match you to studies and pay your rewards. It is handled under India's Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act. You consent at registration and again per study, each time with a plain-language statement of what the study collects and why. You may withdraw at any time, and you may ask to view or delete your data.

Placeholder notice: this page carries the structure and commitments of the final policy. Before launch, the effective date, retention periods, and any processor list must be completed and reviewed. A policy published with placeholders is worse than none.
