The "description" says "publicly viewable", but the "Notes" are "private". If you log out, you can confirm that the notes are actually public, so I believe the message should be changed.

Or removed.
Change 104761 had a related patch set uploaded by 01tonythomas:
Reworded visibility status of "Notes" section to 'publicly viewable'
the notes are private, but only if the filter is set to private ("Hide details of this filter from public view"), but the description (also known as filter-title) is then still visible for everyone. That's the explanation of "private".

The "Conditions" section doesn't include any mention about being public or private, and has the same visibility than the "Notes" section, so I suggest to simply remove the "(private)" text from the message.
