Beanly Privacy Policy – How We Protect Your Data
In an era where digital privacy is no longer optional but essential, understanding how your AI tools handle personal data is critical. Beanly, the leading free AI note-taking app in 2026, is built on a foundation of transparency, security, and user trust. This article provides a comprehensive overview of Beanly's privacy policy and the concrete measures in place to safeguard your information.
Our Core Privacy Principles
Beanly's approach to data protection is guided by three non-negotiable principles:
What Data Does Beanly Collect?
When you use Beanly's free AI note-taking app, the following categories of data may be processed:
Beanly does not collect biometric data, location tracking information, or contact lists. Unlike some competing tools, we draw a clear line between functionality and surveillance.
How We Protect Your Data
End-to-End Encryption
All data transmitted between your device and Beanly's servers is protected with AES-256 encryption, the same standard used by financial institutions and government agencies. Your meeting recordings and smart summaries are encrypted both in transit and at rest.
Secure Cloud Infrastructure
Beanly operates on SOC 2 Type II certified cloud infrastructure with redundant backups across geographically distributed data centers. This ensures both security and reliability for your searchable knowledge base.
Access Controls and Authentication
We enforce strict internal access controls. Employee access to user data is limited on a need-to-know basis, logged, and regularly audited. Multi-factor authentication is available — and strongly recommended — for all Beanly accounts.
AI Processing Safeguards
When Beanly's AI generates instant smart summaries or processes unlimited transcripts, your content is handled in isolated, ephemeral processing environments. Data is not used to train general-purpose AI models, and processing artifacts are purged immediately after your summary is delivered.
Your Rights and Controls
Beanly empowers users with comprehensive data rights, regardless of your location:
We comply with major global privacy regulations including GDPR, CCPA, and other applicable data protection frameworks.
How Beanly Compares on Privacy
Many AI note-taking tools use your content to train their models or monetize your data through advertising partnerships. Beanly takes a fundamentally different approach. Your data powers your experience — not our revenue model. This commitment is what sets Beanly apart from alternatives like Otter or Notion AI when it comes to privacy-first design.
