Privacy Policy

Workspace content and local preferences

LabNotion stores the content you enter or import, such as projects, notebooks, templates, experimental steps and timing, preparation lists, results, animal room, data and sample records, and attachments. It uses that information to display, search, edit, export, and back up your workspace. Preferences and app state are stored on your device so your settings can be restored.

When you select an image or document using the system picker, LabNotion receives the selected item to insert or link it. This does not grant LabNotion access to browse your entire photo library. Linked files remain at their original locations; managed imports are copied into the workspace.

Optional iCloud Sync

When you enable iCloud Sync, Apple’s CloudKit processes supported workspace records, managed attachments and the metadata needed to keep your devices in sync, including record identifiers, changes and deletions. The workspace is stored in the private CloudKit database associated with your Apple Account. Xinyan Studio does not run a separate workspace server or have routine access to the contents of your private CloudKit database.

Turning off iCloud Sync in LabNotion stops that device from continuing to sync. It does not erase its local workspace or copies already in iCloud or on other devices. Apple processes iCloud data under its own terms and privacy policy.

Calendar and Reminders permissions

If you connect System Calendar or System Reminders and grant permission, LabNotion reads the selected sources and displays information such as titles, dates, times, and reminder completion in the calendar. When you change the completion state of an editable reminder, LabNotion writes that change back to the system list.

These system events and reminders are not imported into the LabNotion workspace or included in its iCloud Sync or backups. You can turn off either integration in LabNotion and revoke the corresponding permission in your device’s Privacy & Security settings. The original items stay with their calendar or reminder provider.

Trial and subscription information

To determine when the seven-day trial ends, LabNotion stores the trial start and most recently observed time in the device’s Keychain. These values are used locally; they are not synced through the LabNotion workspace or sent to a developer trial server. The Keychain record may remain after the app is removed.

Apple handles App Store billing and refunds. LabNotion uses verified StoreKit information, including the plan, entitlement and expiry where available, to enable Pro and restore purchases. We do not receive your card number or Apple Account password.

Support correspondence and website visits

If you email us, we receive your email address, your message and any files you choose to send. We use them to respond and investigate the issue you reported. Please redact research and personal information before sending examples or screenshots.

The LabNotion website does not set advertising or analytics cookies or include tracking scripts. The hosting service may process basic request data, such as IP address, requested page, and request time, to deliver and secure the site. External sites follow their own privacy policies.

Sharing and service providers

We do not sell personal information or share it for advertising. Apple provides iCloud and App Store services as described above. Hosting and email providers process the information needed to deliver the site and support. Where providers process personal information on our behalf, we require protection consistent with this policy and applicable law. We may disclose information we hold when legally required.

An export, print job, shared file, or backup you save outside LabNotion is a separate copy. The recipient, storage service, or printer you select may retain that copy under its own policies.

Retention, deletion, and your choices

Workspace content remains until you delete it. To remove an item, move it to Trash and permanently delete it there, or leave it for automatic cleanup after 30 days. To remove a synced item across devices, keep sync enabled while deleting it and check that the deletion has reached your other devices. Turning sync off or uninstalling is not a request to delete iCloud data. Contact support for help checking what remains.

Automatic backups stay on the device and older copies are pruned according to the retention setting after a successful backup. Delete any remaining automatic backups, manual backups, exports, or shared copies separately. Removing an item from the workspace does not remove those copies.

We keep support correspondence as long as needed to resolve the issue and handle reasonable follow-up, or longer where required by law. To request access, correction, or deletion of personal information we hold, or to withdraw consent where applicable, email us. We may need to verify the request. We cannot directly inspect or delete data in your private iCloud database; we can help you use the controls available to you.

Scope and updates

LabNotion is designed for research organization and is not directed at children. We may update this policy as features or data practices change and will update the date on this page. If applicable law requires additional notice or consent, we will provide it.
