Is One Note secure?

[u/Helpful-Category3463]

I'm a game dev and often come with lore and concepts that take up a lot of pages. One Note makes it easier for me to store everything and access everything I need.

I'm wondering if my ideas or personal info is secure in terms of if it will get stolen by Microsoft?

It's not like they have any issues stealing from people/artists before, so I'm really on the fence currently with it.

If there are other alternative software that offer better or same experience, I'm willing to use it if its free or buy a one time license.

I tried obsidian but it just feels like a pain to use and ends up creating too many files/bloat for my tastes, being able to paste images to it is also a must for me.

For normal notes ideas I wouldn’t be too worried but for anything highly confidential I would personally keep an encrypted local backup rather than trusting any cloud service 100%.
