Privacy

publicnote.com does not use Google Analytics, cookies, or any third-party tracking or advertising. There are no ads and no data brokers.

We do not ask for, collect, or store your name, email address, or any other personal information. There is no account and no sign-up.

Every note is encrypted in your browser using the title as the key (AES-256). Only the encrypted blob and a one-way SHA-256 hash of the title are stored on our servers. Because the title is the secret, we cannot read the contents of any note. The one exception: if a title is short or easily guessed, the note is effectively public, and anyone who guesses the title (including us) can read it. Choose a long, complex title for notes you want to keep private.

note

Publicnote is a free online notepad. Enter any title to create a new note or to access any existing note. No account is required to access publicnote.

Every note is encrypted with AES-256, using the title as the encryption key. Then an SHA-256 hash of the title is used to index the encrypted note in a database. Since SHA-256 is a one-way function and the process takes place in your browser, the title is never exposed, thus neither the website owner nor the web host (AWS) can view the plaintext contents of any note (unless the title is easily guessed).

By design, there is no way to recover a note if you forget the title.

Notes stored on publicnote can be public or private depending on the complexity of the title. Simple titles lead to highly visible notes that can be edited by anyone who stumbles upon them, while complex titles lead to private notes that are securely encrypted. The higher the complexity of the title, the stronger the encryption.

Using common words as the title is for entertainment purposes only. You will find a variety of messages left by others. If you find something you find offensive, just delete it.

Do not use publicnote to store sensitive information. By using publicnote you are agreeing to our

terms

.

Publicnote is open source and offered as a free service without any ads. Your donations help fund operating costs and are greatly appreciated. 🙏
