      I’m doing an assessment of privacy for the purposes of approving Notepad++ for use in our organization. There is privacy policy in https://notepad-plus-plus.org/privacy/, but it says

      This policy is not applicable to any information collected offline or via channels other than this website.

      So where to find privacy policy for the actual application?

      Best regards

        @Jarkko-Rantavuori ,

        I’m curious what personal information the app has about you – or rather, what you think it has collected. Because as far as I can tell, it doesn’t collect any information; and it definitely doesn’t “phone home” with any such information. And if an application transmits no such information to a central location, nor even collects such information, what does it need a privacy policy for? Do you expect it to say, “we collect no information about you, so there’s nothing for us to keep private”?
