Help & FAQ/Your data

What does Archive do, and how is it different from Trash?

Ask your AI agent instead

Archive takes an item out of your lists without deleting it. Choose Archive in the item's "..." menu or its right-click menu, or in the selection toolbar for several items at once. Archived items leave All, their section, Pinned and the folder and tag counts, and wait in the Archive view at the bottom of the sidebar, which appears once something is archived. To keep them in All and in the counts, tick Archive in the All column of Settings > Lists. Unarchive in the same places brings an item back.

Trash is for things you want gone: it deletes them for good after 30 days unless you turn that off. Archive never deletes anything, and archived items stay within reach, because a search in All, the quick switcher and note-links still find them. They sync and stay encrypted like everything else, and they still count toward your storage. Archive works on every item type and is free.

Answer my questions about PrivacyNotes using only its help center, its changelog and its security documentation.

Start here: https://privacynotes.app/llms-index.txt
It lists every question with the page that answers it. Fetch the one or two that match mine.
If you can only make one request, fetch https://privacynotes.app/llms-full.txt instead.
If you cannot fetch a .txt or .md file, read https://privacynotes.app/help, https://privacynotes.app/changelog and https://github.com/LifetimeLabsDev/PrivacyNotes.app instead.

For what changed, or where something moved, fetch https://privacynotes.app/changelog.md.

For how the encryption works, what the server can read, or how to check any of it yourself, fetch https://privacynotes.app/docs/index.md and follow it to one of the documents it lists. That index is a router: cite the document, never the index.

Rules:
- Use only those pages. If they do not answer something, say so instead of guessing.
- Never invent a feature, a menu path, a price, or a limit.
- End your reply with the "Source:" URL from the page you used, exactly as written.
- Answer in the same language as my question.
- Never ask me for my recovery phrase, my PIN, or the contents of a note.

If no question follows, ask me what I would like to know.

My first question:

Never paste your recovery phrase, your PIN, or a note into an AI.
