Evernote’s 3 Laws of Data Protection
? Your Data is Yours
? [Blog Post] We do not own your data. Putting notes and other content into
Evernote does not change its ownership or copyright status. If the data was
yours to begin with, it remains yours after you put it in Evernote.
? Your Data is Protected
? [Blog Post] Everything you put into Evernote is private by default. We never
look at it, analyze it, share it, use it to target ads, data mine it, etc.–unless you
specifically ask us to do one of these things. Our business model does not
depend on “monetizing” your data in any way. Rather, it depends on building
trust and providing a great service that more and more people choose to pay
for.
? Your Data is Portable
? [Blog Post] There is no data-lock in Evernote. We are committed to making it
easy for you to get all of your data into, and out of, Evernote at any time. Our
desktop software lets you export all of your notes and content in humanreadable HTML as well as a fully documented machine-readable XML format.

- 28. ? How Secure is My Data? Evernote is committed to protecting the security of your information and takes reasonable precautions to protect it. However, Internet data transmissions, whether wired or wireless, cannot be guaranteed to be 100% secure and as a result we cannot ensure the security of information you transmit to us; accordingly, you acknowledge that you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your data transmission, we make all commercially reasonable efforts to ensure its security on our systems: ? Your Evernote password is protected by encryption and only you have access to it; ? Your personal information and data stored in our systems is protected by various physical, electronic and procedural safeguards. It is housed in secure facilities, and Evernote restricts physical and network access to these facilities to select trained staff. We regularly evaluate our technologies, facilities, procedures and potential risks to maintain the security and privacy of our users’ data. ? Certain Evernote services support the use of standard SSL encryption to protect data transmissions. However, this is not a guarantee that such data transmissions cannot be accessed, altered or deleted due to firewall or other security software failures. Tom Eberle – AAWDC/JCA 11/06/13 28
