Serendipity Notes Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 8, 2026

JustBecauseApps publishes Serendipity Notes. This policy explains how the Android app handles your information.

Google Play Books imports

When you choose to import, the app asks you to select Google Docs in Google Drive. It reads only the documents you select to import your Play Books highlights and notes. It does not change or delete those documents.

Google authorization tokens and exported document contents are used during the import and are not saved by the app. There is no automatic Google Drive sync.

Information stored on your device

The app stores imported book titles, highlights, notes, colors, dates, and links on your device, along with favorites, widget preferences, and your analytics preference. The widget reads this local information. JustBecauseApps does not operate a server that receives your imported book content.

Usage analytics

Serendipity Notes uses Firebase Analytics to understand how the app is used. If you choose to share usage analytics, it sends app interaction events and counts, an app instance identifier, and basic device and app information to Google Firebase. You can change your choice in the app's Settings.

Analytics events do not include your book titles, highlights, notes, search terms, Google Drive file IDs, links, or authorization tokens. See Firebase's privacy information for details about Google's handling of Firebase data.

Sharing

The app does not upload your imported book content to JustBecauseApps or another service. It contacts Google Drive to read the documents you select. If you choose to share usage analytics, it sends the analytics data described above to Google Firebase.

Deleting your information

You can delete individual books or all imported book data in the app. You can also remove all app data through Android settings or by uninstalling the app. This removes the local copies, not the original Google Docs. The app does not back up or transfer imported books to a new device; you can import them again there.
