Introduction
<p>As we state in our 3 Laws of Data Protection, we are committed to protecting the privacy of your data.
This Privacy Policy explains more specifically what information Evernote Corporation and its Group Companies (together, “Evernote,” “we” or “us”) collect, use, and disclose about you when you access or use our websites and applications, which we refer to collectively as “the Service,” contact our customer service team, engage with us on social media, or otherwise interact with us.
The Service includes the Evernote Software.</p>
<p>Please note, if you use Evernote Basic, Plus, or Premium, you are both the Account Holder and End User of an Evernote Service account.
If you use Evernote Business, the Account Holder is the Customer who has contracted with Evernote as defined in our Evernote Business Agreement and the End Users are the individuals whose user accounts are linked to that Evernote Business account.
You can find these and other defined terms used in this policy in our Glossary at the end of this page.</p>
<p>If you are an End User of an Evernote Business account, please note that the Account Holder of your Evernote Business account (such as your employer or organization) may have established its own rules regarding End Users’ access, use, disclosure, or retention of data stored in that account.
Also note that while an Administrator of an Evernote Business account has access to the End User accounts linked to that Evernote Business account, an Administrator cannot access any other accounts that are not linked to the Evernote Business account.
You can find more information on how your personal Evernote Service account works with your Evernote Business account by visiting https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/209005287.</p>
<p>Although significant changes are rare, this policy may be amended as new features, technology, or legal requirements arise, so please check back from time to time.
We’ll notify you if we make a significant change and, where required, seek your consent. </p>
What information does Evernote collect? .
<p>We built Evernote to help you remember and organize your ideas, thoughts, and memories.
That means you can input, upload, or store in Evernote any text, images, and other data that you choose—we refer to that information as“Content”.
We also collect and receive the following types of information:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>Basic subscriber information</strong>.
To open your account and process payments, we collect and receive identifiers like your email address and, depending on how you purchase a subscription to Evernote Plus, Evernote Premium or Evernote Business (each a “Paid Service”), your billing address and other payment information. </li>
<li>
<strong>Usage data.</strong> We collect and log Internet or other electronic network information on how you and others access and use Evernote, for example, the act of creating a note or sharing a note.
Usage data may be collected through cookies, and similar technologies.
For more information, including how to opt-out, visit our Cookie Information page. </li>
<li>
<strong>Location information.</strong> We collect the IP address you use to connect to the Service and — if you choose to share it — your location information from a mobile device. </li>
<li>
<strong>Device information.</strong> We collect information about the number and type of devices you use to connect to the Service, as well as information about the operating systems on those devices (e.g., iOS, Android, Windows).
Learn more about information our applications collect from your device on our Data Usage page.</li>
</ul>
<p>
</p>
<p>We also may link your subscriber information with data we receive from our partners and other third parties to help understand your needs and provide you with a better experience. .
For example, if you create or log into an Evernote account using your Google Apps credentials via single sign-on, we will have access to certain information such as your name and email address as authorized in your Google Apps profile settings.</p>

<p>We have specific rules for how and when we use the information we collect and receive.
We describe these below.</p>

and to administer Evernote Business accounts. </p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>Performing our Services.</strong> We use a number of technologies to help you get the most out of the Service.
Our systems automatically analyze your data to power Evernote features and to continually improve the Service for you in a way that does not require anyone to look at your Content.
This may include, for example:</li>
<ul>
<li>Making sure you find what you’re looking for when you search your account.</li>
<li>Showing you information most relevant to how you are or could be using the Service at a specific time or location.</li>
<li>Suggesting actions for you to take based on information you’ve stored.</li>
<li>Suggesting Evernote service features or products to you that we think will help you get the most out of our Service.</li>

</li>
<li>
<strong>Protecting against security threats, abuse, and illegal activity. </strong>As part of our efforts to protect your account and the functionality of the Service, our systems may analyze the emails you send to and from your Evernote account and the notes you share to detect spam, malware, or other potential security concerns.
If we determine that such material constitutes a Terms of Service or User Guidelines violation, we may block delivery of or unshare the problematic material, much like a spam filter works for your email inbox.<br>

Personal Settings >.
Contact Preferences to change your contact preferences.

Evernote Business users will also continue to receive a daily summary of activity associated with their Business account.</p>
<p>Similarly, if we learn of a security system breach, we may attempt to notify you and provide information on protective steps, if available, through the email address, phone number or other contact information that you have provided to us or by posting a notice on our web site and/or via other communication platforms.
Depending on where you live, you may have a legal right to receive such notices in writing.
</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>Complying with Law.</strong> Evernote also uses information to satisfy applicable laws or regulations, and discloses information in response to legal process or enforceable government requests, including to law enforcement.
For more information, please visit the section “How does Evernote respond to legal requests for my information? ” of this Privacy Policy.</li>
</ul>
<p>
<b>Would someone at Evernote ever view my Content?</b>
</p>
<p>You have control over who sees your Content.
We limit the use of your Content to make sure that no one at Evernote can view it unless you expressly give us permission or it’s necessary to comply with our legal obligations.
Specifically:</p>
<ul>
<li>To help refine or improve the technology, we may ask you for permission to review portions of your Content.
For example, if a new feature suggests related notes that are relevant to your Content, we may give you an opportunity to provide us feedback on how well the feature is performing along with a sample of the Content in question, so we can make sure this feature provides appropriately tailored suggestions.
Such access to your Content is done only with your express permission and is subject to strict confidentiality rules and data access controls.
Choosing to give us such permission is completely voluntary.</li>
<li>If you contact our Customer Support team for help with specific pieces of Content in your account (for example, if you can’t find a note you believe should be in your account), we may ask for your temporary permission to look at your Content.
This permission terminates when the issue is resolved.Learn MoreShow Less</li>
</ul>
<p>If you send Evernote an error report and choose to attach application activity logs, please note that such logs may contain Content (for example, the title of a note or notebook).
You may edit Content out of your activity logs before you send them to us.</p>
<ul>
<li>If we become aware of a potential violation of our a Terms of Service or User Guidelines, we may suspend or close your account until the problematic material is removed.
Under such a circumstance, we would only look at the Content in your account if you give us consent or if necessary to comply with our legal obligations, including to protect the safety of you or any other person.</li>
</ul>
<p>
</p>
<p>To test and improve our product offerings for our users<b>, </b>we use aggregated data that does not contain any personal information, does not identify any person, and cannot be connected to any specific user.
This policy is not intended to apply to such anonymized/de-identified data.</p>
How does Evernote share or disclose my information? <p>Evernote is not in the business of selling or renting your information.
Here are instances when we may disclose your information — and then only the minimum information necessary:</p>
<ul>
<li>We share your information with service providers who process data on our behalf, such as credit card processors and customer management systems.
For example, these service providers help us:
<ul>
<li>Operate, develop, and improve the features and functionality of the Service</li>
<li>Complete your payment transactions</li>
<li>Fulfill your sales and support requests</li>
<li>Communicate with you as described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>
</p>
<p>We require these providers to agree to strict data protection requirements in keeping with our privacy policy standards and our obligations under data protection laws. .
You can view the vendors we use to help us provide the Service on our Vendors page.</p>
<p>We do not share your information with any third parties for their own advertising purposes.Learn MoreShow Less</p>
<p>Examples of our service providers include PayPal and Adyen for processing payments from our paid users, Salesforce for helping us with our email communications and Evernote Business sales outreach, and analytics providers like Google Analytics.
Other service providers include resellers that we work with to help distribute Evernote.
If you purchase a Paid Service from a reseller instead of directly from Evernote, we may need to share limited information with the reseller to ensure accuracy in payment, account management, and delivery of services to you.</p>
<ul>
<li>Your Content is private unless you decide you want to share it.
You may choose to share using public links or through any of the Service’s features that allow you to share or collaborate on Content (“Collaboration Features”).
If you choose to share, we may need to take steps to facilitate your collaboration. Learn MoreShow Less</li>
</ul>
<p>There are features in Evernote that allow you to publish and share some of your notes and notebooks publicly, but these are optional.
Any information that you post in these locations, or in our user forum, can be read, collected, and used by anyone and could enable others to send you unsolicited messages.
Evernote enables you to determine whether to post personal or otherwise sensitive information to publicly accessible areas of our site, so you should carefully consider how you use the Service.
Evernote is not responsible for any publication or use of any information you choose to post in these locations.</p>
<p>When you use Collaboration Features, people you share with may see your user profile.</p>
<ul>
<li>If you have not added any profile information, then you will be identified by the email address associated with your Evernote service account.</li>
<li>If you are an Evernote Business user, other members of your Evernote Business account will see your full Evernote Business account profile.
Evernote service users who are not in your Evernote Business account will only see your profile name and image.</li>
</ul>
<p>In addition, when you use Collaboration Features, the information you share is no longer private to you.
For example, by publishing or sharing any portion of your Content, you may be enabling each recipient of the shared material to access, use, display, perform, distribute, and modify that material.
In addition, Evernote enables you to use a variety of third-party services and applications that interact with the Service, and you should review the access rights you provide to those services or applications, as you may enable them to access or extract your Content through your agreements with those parties.
More information on the nature of these permissions may be found on our Third Party App Permissions page<u>.</u>
</p>
<p>Depending on the permission levels you set when sharing Content, anyone who has access to the shared material may be able to see the Content, information about where and when the Content was created, as well as the note history, tags, and reminders associated with a particular note.</p>
<ul>
<li>In the event of a merger, sale, or reorganization of all or part of our business, information covered by this policy may be transferred in connection with that deal.
</li>
<li>As described on our Cookie Information page, we contract with third-party advertising networks in order to deliver relevant Evernote advertisements to you across the Internet and to manage our communications with you.
We do not use your Content for these purposes.
In addition, we may share with partners or service providers a hashed identifier to serve you relevant Evernote ads when you visit partners’ and providers’ websites, applications or platforms.
We may, for instance, participate in the Google Adwords Remarketing, Twitter Tailored Audience and Facebook Custom Audience services.
To learn more about the privacy controls that Google, Twitter and Facebook offer and honor for those respective services, please visit here for Google, here for Twitter, and here for Facebook.
You may opt out of certain ad targeting and retargeting services by visiting the Digital Advertising Alliance’s opt-out page, or the Network Advertising Initiative’s opt-out page.</li>
<li>We also may share information about you with third parties whenever you consent to or direct such sharing.
This includes, for example, if you connect your Evernote account with a third-party app in our App Center.Learn MoreShow Less</li>
</ul>
<p>Evernote works with a number of third-party applications and services.
In some cases, Evernote will partner with another company to provide an integration.
In addition, in our App Center, you can find a number of third-party applications and services that work with Evernote.
If you connect your Evernote account to these third-party services, you may be giving the partner access to some or all of your data, including, in some cases, your Content.</p>
<p>Providing such access is entirely voluntary, and you’ll receive notice and must consent before such access is granted.
You’ll always be able to check which applications or services are authorized to access your account by visiting the applications page in your account.
You’ll also be able to turn off access from connected applications and services whenever you want.</p>
<p>Please consider your selection of such applications and services, and your permissions, carefully.
We encourage you to review each party’s contract terms and privacy policy.
To learn more about third-party applications and what data they may access, visit our Third Party Application Permissions page.</p> How does Evernote respond to legal requests for my information?
<p>We vigilantly protect the privacy of your account.
We will not disclose your information to law enforcement or other governmental authorities unless we believe it is required to comply with warrants, court orders, subpoenas, or other lawful government requests.
This may include responding to legal requests from jurisdictions outside of the United States where we have a good faith belief that the response is required by law in that jurisdiction, affects users in that jurisdiction, and is consistent with internationally recognized standards of due process.</p>
<p>We narrowly interpret all information requests, and we only disclose Content in your account that is specifically responsive to a government warrant or where you have provided your explicit consent.
In accordance with our user notice policy, we will notify you if we believe we are compelled to comply with a third party’s legal demand for your information, and we routinely push back on government orders to delay user notice that we view as overly broad.
You can find more information in our current Transparency Report.</p>
<p>In addition, in rare cases, we may share your information as necessary to investigate or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, or potential threats against persons, property or the systems on which we operate the Service, or as otherwise necessary to comply with our legal obligations.</p>
How can I manage my information stored in Evernote?
<p>Consistent with our first law of data protection—your data is yours—in most cases, you can manage your information simply by logging into your account and editing your information directly within the Evernote Service.</p>
<p>However, if you prefer, you can contact us at compliance@evernote.com to ask us to provide access to, correct, update, or delete your personal information.
California residents should visit the section “Your California Privacy Rights” of this Privacy Policy for more information about specific rights and how to exercise those rights.
Please note that we may ask you for proof of account ownership and/or identity before fulfilling your request.
We will comply with such requests to the extent required by applicable law or the US-Swiss Privacy Shield and US-EU Privacy Shield Frameworks.</p>
<p>

</ul>
<p>
<b>How long does Evernote store my information?</b>
</p>
<p>Evernote's mission is to help you remember everything important in your life.
In order to do that, we make the Content you store in Evernote readily accessible to you, until you make the decision to delete it.</p>
<p>If you delete your Content and then sync, it will no longer be accessible to you or others who may access the Service.
The Evernote service’s back-up systems may retain residual copies of your deleted Content for up to one year due to the nature of those systems’ operations.</p>
<p>Evernote provides you with features that allow you to communicate and collaborate with other users.
Please note that deleting your copy of these communications (such as messages) won't delete copies existing in the accounts of people you were interacting with.</p>
<p>For users who are inactive for extended periods of time, we may close your account to satisfy our obligations under applicable law, and in accordance with our data retention policy.
If that happens, we will try to notify you before taking any action.</p>
<p>
<strong>What happens if I want to stop using Evernote?</strong>
</p>
<p>As described above, you can delete your Content at any time, and you can stop using the Evernote service at any time.
And as we promise in our third law of data protection, your data is portable.
You can export your notes at any time, as explained here.</p>
<p>
<strong>What happens if Evernote closes my account?</strong>
</p>
<p>If Evernote deactivates your account due to a TOS violation, then you may contact us to request deletion of your Content, and we will evaluate such requests on a case by case basis, pursuant to our legal obligations.</p>
<strong>
</strong>
<p>
<strong>Where does Evernote store my information?</strong>
</p>
<p>When you use Evernote Software on your computing device, such as by using one of our downloadable applications, some of your data will be stored locally on that device.</p>
<p>When you sync your computing device with the Service, that data will be replicated on servers maintained in the United States.
This means that if you store information in or submit data to the Evernote website or Evernote Software and sync such Evernote Software with the Evernote service, you acknowledge your personal information will be transmitted to, hosted, and accessed in the United States.</p>
<p>Data privacy laws or regulations in your home country may differ from, or be more protective than, those in the United States.
We will collect, store, and use your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable laws, wherever it is processed.</p>
<p>

<p>If you live in Brazil, your data controller is Evernote do Brasil Serviços de Aplicaçōes Ltda.

If you live anywhere else, your data controller is Switzerland-based Evernote GmbH.</p>

The Standard Contractual Clauses are generally referenced within a Data Processing Agreement entered between Evernote and the applicable parties.</p>
<p>
<strong>Privacy Shield Frameworks</strong> .
 .
</p>
<p>In addition, Evernote Corporation has certified its compliance with the EU-US Privacy Shield .
and the Swiss-US Privacy Shield Frameworks as set forth by the US Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of personal data .

This notice outlines our general policy and practices for implementing the Privacy Shield Principles for personal data.</p>

<p>Under the Privacy Shield, Evernote Corporation will remain liable if its third-party service providers process your personal data in a manner inconsistent with the Privacy Shield Principles, unless we prove that we are not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.</p>
<p>Residents of the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland who believe that their personal data has not been processed in compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles may raise their complaint in the following ways:</p>
<ol>

<strong>Does Evernote allow children to use its Services?</strong>
</p>
<p>Our Services are designed for adults, not children under the age of 16.
As such, we do not intend to collect personal information from children under the age of 16, and our Services are not designed to manage such information.
If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 16 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information.
If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under 16, please contact us at privacy@evernote.com.</p>
<p>
<strong>How does Evernote respond to Do Not Track signals?</strong>
</p>
<p>Do Not Track is a privacy preference that users can set in their web browsers.
When a user turns on the Do Not Track signal, the browser sends a message to websites requesting them not to track the user.
At this time, Evernote does not currently respond to or otherwise take action in response to web browser "do not track" signals or other mechanisms that provide consumers the ability to exercise choice regarding the collection of personal information about an individual consumer’s online activities over time and across third party websites or online services.
