Privacy Policy
Last updated 3 November 2026
Corda is a notes, tasks and calendar app for iPhone, iPad and Mac, provided by BornAsBjorn LLC (“we”, “us”). This policy explains what data Corda handles, why, and the choices you have.
What Corda stores
- Your account. When you sign in with Apple we receive an account identifier and, if you choose to share it, your email address (which may be an Apple private relay address).
- Your content. The notes, notebooks, tags, tasks and attachments you create, so they sync between your devices.
- Linked Google accounts. If you connect Google Calendar, the data described in the next section.
Corda doesn't use analytics, advertising or tracking tools.
Google user data
Connecting a Google account is optional. When you do, Corda asks for these permissions and uses them only as described:
- Your email address (
openid,userinfo.email), to label the linked account in Corda. - Your calendar list (
calendar.calendarlist.readonly), so you can choose which calendars appear in Corda. - Calendar events (
calendar.events), to show events from the calendars you select, to create, update and remove the events for tasks you give a date, and to carry changes you make to those events in Google Calendar back to the task. - Files Corda creates in Google Drive (
drive.file), only if you turn on Drive backup, to write a backup of your notes to your Drive. Corda can't see any other files in your Drive.
Google data is copied to our servers only as far as these features need: event details for the selected calendars over a rolling window, and an encrypted refresh token that lets Corda keep your calendar in sync while your devices are off.
Limited use
Corda’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. In particular:
- Google user data is used only to provide the features described above, which you can see and control in the app.
- It is not sold, not used for advertising, and not transferred to anyone except as needed to provide those features, to comply with the law, or with your explicit consent.
- No person reads it unless you ask us to for support, it’s needed for security or legal reasons, or it has been aggregated and anonymised for internal operations.
- It is never used to develop, improve or train generalised artificial intelligence or machine learning models.
Claude
Corda can let Anthropic’s Claude assistant read and update your notes, tasks and meetings, but only after you connect Claude to your own Corda account. Claude then accesses that data on your instruction, under Anthropic’s privacy policy. You can disconnect it at any time.
Where data is kept
Your data is stored with Google Cloud (Firestore, Cloud Storage and Cloud Run) in the United States, encrypted in transit and at rest. Google refresh tokens are additionally encrypted by Corda before they are stored. Access is limited to your own signed-in account.
Keeping and deleting data
- Your content is kept until you delete it or delete your account.
- Disconnect a Google account in Corda’s Settings to delete its tokens and the copied events straight away. Events Corda already created for your tasks stay in your Google Calendar.
- You can also remove Corda’s access at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
- To delete your Corda account and everything in it, email us and we’ll do so within 30 days.
Children
Corda isn’t directed at children under 13, and we don’t knowingly collect their data.
Changes
If this policy changes we’ll update the date above, and for significant changes we’ll let you know in the app.
