MyKeeper Privacy
Privacy
MyKeeper is built around a simple idea: your container data should stay under your control. The app is local-first, and cloud features are optional.
At a glance
- MyKeeper stores your boxes, documents, notes, and most app data on this device.
- You do not need an account just to use the basic app.
- Backup files are created only when you choose to export or restore them.
- Google Drive is optional and used only if you choose to connect it for backup features.
- MyKeeper collects anonymous install and launch counts to understand how many people use the app. No personal information is collected.
- MyKeeper is not designed to access your data or run ad-tracking on your stored items.
What MyKeeper stores
MyKeeper can store container names, locations, labels, notes, photos, scanned document images, OCR text, voice notes, QR label references, privacy settings, and app preferences needed to run the app.
For normal use, that information is stored locally in your browser storage on your device. If you clear browser storage, uninstall the app, reset your device, or lose the device without a backup, your data may be lost.
Anonymous usage data
MyKeeper collects a small amount of anonymous usage data to understand how many people install and use the app. This includes the type of event (such as app install or first launch), your device platform (Android, iOS, or Desktop), and a timestamp. No names, accounts, location data, or information about your stored containers or items is collected.
This data is used only to count usage and is not shared with advertisers or third parties.
Backups you create
When you use MyKeeper backup tools, the app can create a full backup ZIP. A full backup may include photos, scanned pages, audio files, and other stored item files.
Backup files are created only when you trigger that action. Importing a backup replaces the current MyKeeper data on this device with the contents of the selected backup.
Google Drive backups
Google Drive backup is optional. If you choose to connect Google Drive, MyKeeper uses that connection only to work with its own backup files in your Drive.
MyKeeper is intended to use Google Drive as a backup destination, not as your live database and not as a background sync service.
Google may process sign-in, authorization, file upload, and related account activity under Google's own terms and privacy policies when you use that feature.
Photos, scanning, OCR, and voice notes
If you add photos, scanned pages, OCR text, or voice notes, those files become part of your MyKeeper data on this device and may also be included in full backups you choose to create.
OCR and related processing are provided to help you search and organize your own stored content. You should not scan or store sensitive documents unless you are comfortable keeping them on your device and in any backups you create.
Privacy PIN
MyKeeper may offer a privacy lock feature to help protect access inside the app. That feature is meant as a practical privacy layer on your device. It is not a substitute for device security, secure backups, or careful handling of exported files.
What MyKeeper does not require for basic use
- No required account for basic local use
- No mandatory cloud sync
- No need to upload your live data to a server just to use the app
Your choices
- Create local backups regularly.
- Store full backup ZIP files somewhere you trust.
- Use Google Drive backup only if you want that extra copy apart from your device.
- Delete old backups you no longer want.
- Protect your phone, browser, and cloud accounts with strong security.
Changes to this page
As MyKeeper grows, this page may be updated to reflect new features such as optional sync, sharing, or cloud tools. If those features are added later, this page will be updated so the description stays accurate.
