The extension reads the mailbox it runs in: turn it off in a mailbox with confidential correspondence
A high score does not guarantee a reply: track your reply rate yourself

An AI request sends the note text to a model in the cloud; encryption covers storage only
It is a tool for one person, with limited team collaboration
Keep daily notes with colleagues' names and ratings outside the service if the company might take an interest in them
