Privacy policy

Last updated on July 24, 2026

Introduction

Meelio is local-first. Core features store your tasks, settings, preferences, and other workspace data in your browser. Some optional features require a network connection and account-backed processing. This policy explains what stays local, what is sent when you choose those features, and how the Meelio website uses analytics.

Who We Are

Meelio is built by Zain Zafar .

If you have concerns or questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us via email at support@meelio.io

Local-first by default

The core Meelio experience is designed to work locally in your browser. Core workspace data is stored with browser storage APIs and is not sent to Meelio merely because you use those features. Meelio also provides optional features that use network services:

  1. Account and sync: If you sign in and use sync, the account and data needed to provide that service are processed by Meelio's backend services.
  2. AI and weather: If you use these features, the request and information needed to return a result are sent to the relevant Meelio service.
  3. Integrations and purchases: Calendar, billing, and other integrations may send information to the service needed to complete the action you requested.

Where Your Data Lives

When you use core local features, your data (including tasks, settings, mantras, and preferences) is stored in your browser. If you choose account-backed features, the specific data required for those features can also be processed by Meelio's backend services.

You have full control over your data. You can:

  1. Export your data: Download all your settings and data as a file to back up or transfer to another device
  2. Import your data: Restore your data from a previously exported file
  3. Delete your data: Clear all data by clearing your browser storage or uninstalling the extension. If you use an account, contact us to request account or server-side data deletion.

Calendar Integration (ICS URLs)

Meelio supports calendar integration via ICS URLs. If you choose to use this feature, please be aware:

  1. ICS URLs may contain sensitive information: Your calendar ICS URL is essentially a direct link to your calendar data. Treat it like a password and do not share it publicly.
  2. Data is fetched when requested: When you add an ICS URL, Meelio or the configured integration service fetches calendar data from that URL. The calendar provider may process the request according to its own policy.
  3. Storage: Your ICS URL and fetched calendar events can be stored in browser storage so the feature can work.

Important: Be cautious about where you obtain ICS URLs from and ensure you trust the source. If your ICS URL is compromised, regenerate it through your calendar provider.

Chrome Extension Permissions

The Chrome extension may request certain browser permissions to function properly. These permissions are used solely for the extension's features:

  1. New Tab: To replace your new tab page with Meelio
  2. Storage: To save your preferences and data locally

The browser installation prompt and the feature interface describe the permissions required for the version you install.

Third-Party Services

The services you use determine which external requests occur. For example:

  1. The Meelio marketing website uses Google Analytics to understand traffic and engagement. This can include the page visited, referral source, browser or device details, approximate location, and interactions such as scrolling. Google may receive an IP address while processing the request and handles analytics data under its own privacy policy.
  2. The app may fetch wallpaper assets from its CDN and calendar data from an ICS URL when you enable those features.
  3. Optional account, sync, AI, weather, billing, and integration features use the network services required to provide them.

Analytics choices

Analytics is used on the marketing website, not as a requirement for the core local workspace. You can limit cookies and similar browser storage through your browser settings and use available content-blocking or analytics opt-out tools. Account-backed product features may still require network requests when enabled.

Storage and choices

Your browser controls local storage used by the extension and web app. You can export or import local data, clear browser storage, uninstall the extension, disable optional integrations, or sign out. Contact us if you need help with account data or deletion.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

Any changes to our Privacy Policy will be posted on this page. Significant changes will also be reflected in the product changelog.
