Who can see the notes an attendee adds to a Microsoft Outlook meeting?

Someone else organizes a meeting in Microsoft Outlook and invites me. I accept the invitation. If I then put some notes in the big description/details area of that Outlook meeting, are those private to me, or can all the attendees see this? I am having a hard time figuring out how to Google this.

It should just be visible locally. If you are the meeting organizer and send out an update to the invite, invitees will see that, but as a meeting invitee, the change stays on your end.

Best answer: +1, those details are visible only to you.

However if the meeting organizer updates the meeting, their version supersedes yours and your changes/notes may be lost.

I believe only the organiser has permissions to edit the meeting title/notes/location/participants and push those changes to all attendees. Changes you make to a meeting you didn't organise in your own calendar are only saved locally.
