Help & FAQ/Getting started

What should I keep in Bookmarks, Contacts and the Vault?

Ask your AI agent instead

The parts of your life that do not belong in a browser profile or a phone address book. Bookmarks, Contacts and the Vault sit beside the ones your browser and your phone already sync to Google, Apple or Mozilla, and they hold what you would rather keep out of those. All three are free on every tier.

  • Links about health, money, law or a job hunt, on a computer you share with someone
  • Research for one topic, kept together instead of buried among thousands of browser bookmarks
  • The doctor, the lawyer, the landlord and the recruiter, kept out of an address book that syncs to iCloud or Google
  • A contact with the context around them: your notes, the dates, the file they sent you
  • Recovery phrases, license keys, safe codes and passport numbers, which are secrets but not logins
  • The few credentials you never want inside a browser extension

Each one is a row in the sidebar. If a row is missing, open the sidebar options menu above your tags and switch Show in sidebar on for it. You can bring your existing ones in from a file and take them out the same way (bookmarks, contacts, the Vault).

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.
