Hopefully, you already organized literature references as .bib file in the bibtex format. There are multiple managers available (survey wikipedia), and research libraries offer workshops on an afternoon to set you up an going. One of them is zotero - open source, cross-platform, well documented (there is a r/zotero, too). With zoterobib on one hand, the doi of journal articles/ISBN of modern books on the other,...

Do you really need it hosted? Is a private app enough? For example, on Android, there's Periodical and I think it doesn't even have the internet access permission. Source: about 2 years ago

You can back up its data to a text file to restore if need be, and keep that backup off your device. However, if your phone backs itself up to "the cloud" you could still incriminate yourself.
