Please read these terms before using Notification Logger. By downloading, installing, or using the app, you accept them. If you do not accept them, do not download, install, or use Notification Logger.

1. Agreement and Store Terms

These Terms of Use and End User License Agreement (the “Terms”) are an agreement between you and GagarinSoft, the publisher of Notification Logger identified in Microsoft Store (Store ID 9MZF9DMHNH3P). They apply to Notification Logger and to its updates or supplements, unless different terms accompany a particular update.

Your acquisition and use of the app are also subject to the applicable Microsoft Store terms, usage rules, account requirements, billing rules, and mandatory consumer protections. If a provision of these Terms conflicts with a non-waivable law or a controlling Microsoft Store rule, that law or rule controls to the extent of the conflict.

2. Limited License

Subject to these Terms, the trial or payment conditions shown in Microsoft Store, and applicable Store rules, GagarinSoft grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use Notification Logger on Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices linked to your Store account, for lawful personal or internal business purposes.

Notification Logger is licensed, not sold. GagarinSoft and its licensors retain all rights not expressly granted. You may not sell, sublicense, rent, lease, redistribute, remove proprietary notices, bypass technical restrictions or licensing controls, or reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the app, except to the extent applicable law or an open-source license expressly permits it.

3. What Notification Logger Does — and Does Not Guarantee

Notification Logger uses the Windows user notification listener to read notifications delivered to your Windows account and saves them in a database stored locally on your device, so that you can view, search, filter, favorite, delete, and export your notification history. The app also offers optional regular-expression search, CSV and JSON export, an optional PIN lock with automatic re-lock, keyword alerts, and a configurable retention period.

Important limitations
  • Notification Logger can only record notifications that Windows delivers to it while the app is installed, permitted, and able to run. It cannot recover notifications that arrived before installation, while notification access was turned off, or that Windows never delivered to it.
  • Notification access is a Windows permission that you control in Windows privacy settings. If it is never granted or is later revoked, capture stops.
  • What appears in a notification is decided by the sending application and by Windows. Some applications send truncated, delayed, grouped, or placeholder text, and some notifications carry no readable text at all.
  • The notification database is ordinary local application data. It can be lost through device failure, disk error, uninstalling the app, resetting the app, resetting Windows, or storage cleanup. Notification Logger is not a backup, archiving, synchronization, or data recovery service.
  • The retention setting deletes older notifications automatically, and deletion in the app is permanent. GagarinSoft cannot restore deleted entries.
  • Keyword alerts are a convenience feature, not a monitoring, security, compliance, supervision, or alerting service. Alerts can be missed, delayed, or suppressed by Windows, by focus and notification settings, or by the state of your device.
  • The PIN lock restricts casual access to the app window. It does not encrypt the notification database and is not a security boundary against anyone who has access to your Windows account, your device, or its files.
  • Notification Logger is not an evidentiary, forensic, legal, medical, financial, employment-monitoring, or safety-critical record, and is not designed or certified for such use.

You remain responsible for verifying important information against its original source. Do not rely on the app as the only record where accuracy, completeness, or timeliness matters.

4. Your Responsibilities and Acceptable Use

Notification Logger records the content of notifications delivered to the Windows account it runs under. That content can include other people’s messages, names, contact details, and other personal data.

You agree to use the app only on devices and Windows accounts you are entitled to use, and only in compliance with applicable law and with any workplace, school, or organizational policy that applies to that device. You are solely responsible for obtaining any consent and giving any notice required by law before recording, retaining, searching, exporting, sharing, or otherwise processing notification content that concerns other people.

You must not use Notification Logger to monitor another person without a lawful basis, to intercept communications unlawfully, or in any manner that violates the privacy, data protection, employment, communications, or surveillance laws that apply to you.

If you use the app on behalf of an organization, you confirm that you are authorized to accept these Terms for that organization, and you are responsible, as the controller of the notification data the app stores, for the lawfulness of that processing.

5. Privacy and Local Data

How the app handles notification content, the PIN, keyword lists, settings, and exported files is described in the Notification Logger Privacy Policy. Notification history stays in a database on your device; GagarinSoft does not receive it, and the app does not transmit it to GagarinSoft servers or to third parties.

Because GagarinSoft has no access to that data, GagarinSoft cannot retrieve, restore, export, or delete it for you, and cannot recover a forgotten PIN. The only way to reset a forgotten PIN is to uninstall the app or reset its data in Windows, which also removes the locally stored notification history and settings.

Exported CSV and JSON files leave the app the moment you save them. They may contain the same personal or sensitive content that appeared in your notifications, and you are responsible for how you store, transfer, and share them.

6. Third-Party Components and Services

Notification Logger runs on Windows and relies on Microsoft platform components, including the Windows user notification listener, and on third-party user-interface components licensed to GagarinSoft. The licenses of those components apply to them and may grant you additional rights.

Microsoft Store provides acquisition, licensing, billing, updates, and related services. The applications whose notifications you record are independent of GagarinSoft. GagarinSoft does not control and is not responsible for the availability, accuracy, security, terms, or privacy practices of Windows, of Microsoft Store, or of any application that sends notifications, and any of them may change, restrict, suspend, or discontinue behavior without notice.

7. Trial, Purchase, and Refunds

Notification Logger is distributed exclusively through Microsoft Store. A free trial is offered so that you can evaluate the app before paying, and the full version is unlocked by a one-time purchase at the price Microsoft Store displays for your market at the time of the transaction. Trial duration, price, taxes, payment methods, regional availability, and purchase rights are the terms Microsoft Store displays at that moment.

Refunds are handled by Microsoft, not by GagarinSoft
  • Your purchase is a transaction made in Microsoft Store with Microsoft. GagarinSoft is not a party to that payment transaction.
  • Refunds are provided exclusively by Microsoft, under the Microsoft Store refund rules and policies in effect at the time of your purchase.
  • GagarinSoft does not process payments, does not receive or hold your payment details, does not issue refunds, and cannot reverse, expedite, appeal, or otherwise influence a Microsoft refund decision.
  • Refund requests must be submitted to Microsoft through your Microsoft account order history or Microsoft support. GagarinSoft cannot submit, escalate, or guarantee them on your behalf.
  • Nothing on the GagarinSoft website, in these Terms, in the Microsoft Store listing, in support correspondence, or in any other GagarinSoft material creates a separate refund promise, guarantee, or obligation by GagarinSoft.

Please use the free trial to confirm that the app works on your device and suits your needs before you buy. None of the above limits the mandatory consumer rights you may have under the law of your place of residence; those rights apply regardless of these Terms.

8. Updates, Support, and Availability

GagarinSoft may provide updates, change or remove features, change Windows compatibility, or discontinue all or part of Notification Logger. Updates are delivered through Microsoft Store and may be required for continued operation.

Support is provided on a reasonable-efforts basis at gagarinsoft@gmail.com, without a guaranteed response time, resolution, service level, maintenance period, or continued availability.

9. “AS IS” Warranty Disclaimer

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NOTIFICATION LOGGER, THE NOTIFICATION HISTORY IT STORES, ITS SEARCH RESULTS, ALERTS, EXPORTS, DOCUMENTATION, UPDATES, AND SUPPORT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES, GUARANTEES, CONDITIONS, OR REPRESENTATIONS OF ANY KIND.

GagarinSoft disclaims all express, implied, statutory, and collateral warranties and conditions, including merchantability, satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, availability, security, compatibility, uninterrupted operation, and error-free operation; that every notification will be captured, recorded in full, or retained; that stored data will be preserved, readable, or recoverable; and that defects will be corrected. No oral or written information creates a warranty that is not expressly stated in these Terms.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions. In that case, the exclusions apply only to the extent permitted, and your non-waivable statutory rights remain unaffected.

10. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, GAGARINSOFT AND ITS LICENSORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS OR DAMAGE; LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, OPPORTUNITY, CONTRACTS, GOODWILL, OR REPUTATION; LOSS, CORRUPTION, DELETION, OR DISCLOSURE OF NOTIFICATION HISTORY, EXPORTED FILES, OR OTHER DATA; MISSED, DELAYED, INCOMPLETE, OR INACCURATE NOTIFICATIONS OR ALERTS; DEVICE OR STORAGE FAILURE; OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES, EVEN IF ADVISED THAT SUCH LOSS MAY OCCUR.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, GagarinSoft’s total aggregate liability arising from or relating to Notification Logger or these Terms will not exceed the amount you actually paid for Notification Logger. This limitation does not exclude liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including any mandatory consumer remedy, liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or liability for fraud.

11. Suspension and Termination

Your license ends automatically if you materially breach these Terms. Upon termination, you must stop using and uninstall Notification Logger. Uninstalling or resetting the app removes its local settings and its notification database, and that removal is permanent; export anything you want to keep first.

Provisions that by their nature should survive — including ownership, the refund provisions above, disclaimers, and liability limits — continue to apply. Access at the Store level may also depend on Microsoft account, payment, device, and usage rules.

12. General Terms

If part of these Terms is unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum lawful extent and the remaining terms will continue in force. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms without GagarinSoft’s consent; GagarinSoft may assign them in connection with a reorganization, sale, or transfer of the product or business, subject to applicable law.

These Terms are governed by the law that applies under mandatory conflict-of-law and consumer-protection rules. Nothing here deprives you of non-waivable rights or of a forum available to you under the law of your place of residence.

13. Changes to These Terms

GagarinSoft may update these Terms prospectively for legal, security, operational, or product reasons. The effective date is shown at the top of this page, and the current version will remain available here. Where required by law, material changes will be communicated through an appropriate channel and will not apply retroactively without a lawful basis.
