Privacy Policy

Effective date: August 5, 2026

The short version

Progress Note Studio is built to be private by design. The desktop app runs entirely offline and doesn't collect anything about you or your clients. This website itself currently collects nothing beyond standard hosting logs. This page explains exactly what does and doesn't happen, and what may change as the site grows.

What the website collects

As of the effective date above, progressnotestudio.com uses Google Analytics 4 to measure website visits and advertising performance — for example, how many people arrive from a search ad and whether they continue to checkout. Google Analytics sets cookies or similar identifiers in your browser and receives standard usage data (pages viewed, approximate location, device type). We use this data only in aggregate to understand whether our advertising works; we do not use it to identify individual visitors. The interactive demo on the homepage still runs entirely in your browser — nothing you click inside the demo is transmitted, logged, or recorded anywhere.

That said, a small amount of data passes through the site by virtue of how the web works, or through your own choice to contact us:

Active as of August 5, 2026: Google Analytics 4 (described above), used for advertising measurement in connection with our Google Ads campaigns. Planned, not yet active: we may add a Meta Pixel and/or an email signup form powered by MailerLite in the future. Any MailerLite signup would only add your email to our list if you actively submit the form — never automatically. This page will be updated before or at the same time any such change ships.

What the app collects

Nothing. The Progress Note Studio desktop application makes zero network connections and stores nothing automatically — this has been verified in the app's code, not just asserted as policy. Everything you click, type, or generate inside the app stays on your own computer unless you personally choose to export or copy it somewhere else. There is no telemetry, no crash reporting, no update-check, and no analytics of any kind built into the software.

Progress Note Studio is not an EHR (electronic health record) and is not a substitute for one. You decide what, if anything, gets entered into your actual records system.

No sale of data

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal data — yours or your clients' — to anyone, for any purpose. There is nothing for us to sell: the app collects nothing, and the site collects only what's described above.

Third-party services we rely on

Your choices

Because the app itself collects nothing, there's nothing to request, export, or delete from it. For the website, you can block Google Analytics with common browser privacy tools, an ad blocker, or Google's own opt-out browser add-on — every part of this site, including the demo, works fully with analytics blocked. For anything related to your Payhip purchase record, contact us or Payhip directly using the links in this policy.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes — most likely when analytics or email signup features described above go live — we'll update the effective date at the top of this page. Material changes will be reflected here before or at the same time the change takes effect.
