Privacy

Last updated: 2026-05-03

Introduction

This privacy policy explains how reading-notes-commonplace-extractor.hub2.day (“the site”, “we”, “us”) handles information when you use the Reading Notes Commonplace Extractor. The site is a focused, independent web utility that helps readers turn scattered highlights and notes into a structured commonplace book grouped by theme, source, and personal tags.

Information We Collect

Browser-local project inputs

The core experience works primarily in your browser. Highlights, notes, tags, and project structures you enter are processed locally on your device. We do not require an account and we do not store your reading projects on our servers by default. If a feature explicitly states that data is saved or synced, we will describe that behavior clearly at the point of use.

Contact email

If you contact us at hello@reading-notes-commonplace-extractor.hub2.day, we will use your email address and message content solely to respond to your request. We do not add contact emails to marketing lists and we do not sell or rent them.

Server and security logs

Our hosting provider may automatically log limited technical information such as IP address, request timestamps, requested URLs, and error codes. These logs are used for security, abuse prevention, and basic reliability monitoring. They are not used to build personal profiles.

Cookies and local storage

The site may use browser cookies or local storage for essential functionality (for example, remembering interface preferences or consent choices). We do not use first-party analytics cookies. Where third-party services set their own cookies (such as advertising), we describe that below.

Advertising and Third-Party Services

Google AdSense

The site uses Google AdSense to display ads. Google may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or by using industry opt-out tools such as aboutads.info.

GDPR/EEA/UK consent

If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we will seek your consent before using non-essential cookies or similar technologies, including personalized advertising. You can change your preferences through the consent controls provided on the site or by adjusting your browser settings.

CCPA/CPRA-style choices

If you are a California resident, you may have the right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information as defined under the CCPA/CPRA. Because we do not sell personal information in the traditional sense, and because AdSense may use cookies for targeted advertising, you can exercise your choice by using the opt-out mechanisms described above or by contacting us at hello@reading-notes-commonplace-extractor.hub2.day.

Service Providers

We rely on third-party service providers for hosting, security, and advertising. These providers may process limited technical data (such as IP addresses and access logs) on our behalf. They are expected to handle data in accordance with applicable law and are not permitted to use your information for their own independent purposes.

Data Retention

We retain server and security logs only as long as reasonably necessary for security, troubleshooting, and legal compliance, typically for a limited period defined by our hosting provider. Contact emails are retained only as long as needed to address your request and for reasonable record-keeping. Browser-local project data remains under your control on your device.

Children

The site is not directed to children under 13 (or the applicable age of consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at hello@reading-notes-commonplace-extractor.hub2.day so we can take appropriate steps.

Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. No method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Third-Party Links

The site may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.

International Processing

If you access the site from outside the jurisdiction where our servers are located, your information may be transferred to and processed in that jurisdiction. By using the site, you acknowledge this transfer.

Your Rights and Contact

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of certain information, as well as the right to object to processing or to data portability. To exercise these rights or to ask questions about this policy, contact us at hello@reading-notes-commonplace-extractor.hub2.day.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after changes indicates your acknowledgment of the updated policy.
