Burrow Deck

Last updated: 2026-10-16

Burrow Deck is an offline markdown notepad for writing, tagging and searching notes on your device. This policy describes what Burrow Deck does and does not do with your data. The short version: we collect nothing and your notes never leave your phone.

1Information we collect

None. The app has no sign-up, no profile upload, no analytics and no crash reporting. The display name and avatar you can set on the Profile screen are stored on the device and are never transmitted.

2Data stored on your device

To make the app work, Burrow Deck stores the following only on your device, using the operating system's local storage:

Notes — title, markdown body, tags, pinned state, and the created/edited timestamps.
Tags — the labels you create, with their colour and icon.
Preferences — editor text size, monospace mode, sort order, preview-on-open, counter visibility, pinned-first ordering and the delete confirmation setting (stored via SharedPreferences).
Profile — the display name and avatar glyph you choose, plus the date you started using the app.
Milestones — which writing milestones you have earned.
A first-run flag — records that the introduction has been shown.

Notes, tags, profile and milestones are kept in a local Hive database; preferences and the first-run flag use the platform's standard local preference store. This data never leaves your device. It is not uploaded to Burrow Deck or to any third party. Uninstalling the app or clearing its storage deletes all of it permanently.

3Permissions

The app requests no runtime permissions: no camera, no microphone, no location, no contacts, no photo library, no notifications. The Android manifest declares the standard INTERNET permission, which ships with the Flutter project template and is required for debug tooling. The released app contains no networking code and makes no network requests.

4Network use

Burrow Deck is fully offline. It contains no HTTP client, no WebView, no sync service and no third-party endpoints. Your notes never leave the device, which also means they are not backed up by us.

5Third-party services

None are integrated. The app bundles no analytics, advertising, attribution, crash-reporting or social SDKs. It uses no cookies and no tracking identifiers.

6Children's privacy

The app is suitable for all ages. Because it collects no personal information whatsoever and transmits nothing, it does not knowingly collect data from children under 13 (COPPA) or under 16 (GDPR-K) — it collects no data from anyone.

7Your rights

Your data is entirely in your hands. Every note is visible in the app and can be copied out as markdown. Deleting a note removes it from the device. Uninstalling Burrow Deck erases all of its data, including every note, tag, preference and milestone. Because nothing is uploaded, we hold no copy of your data and cannot restore it for you.

8Changes to this policy

If this policy ever changes, the "Last updated" date at the top of this page will be revised. Material changes will be noted in the app's release notes.
