PasteDeck Privacy Policy

Effective date: September 1, 2026

Last updated: September 12, 2026

PasteDeck (the “App”) is provided by its developer (“we”, “us”). This policy explains how information is handled when you use the App.

1. Information we process

PasteDeck is a clipboard-history utility for macOS. To display, search, organize, and reuse content you copy, the App processes clipboard text, rich text, links, colors, images, and file references locally on your Mac.

Clipboard records may include the time copied, source application name and bundle identifier, file paths, favorite status, and collection information. This information is used only to provide the App’s local features.

2. Local storage

Clipboard history, images, rich-text assets, favorite collections, excluded-application lists, retention preferences, and other settings are stored in the App sandbox and local UserDefaults.

The App provides no account or cloud-sync service. It does not upload clipboard content, files, usage history, or preferences to us or any third party. We cannot access this data remotely.

3. Sensitive-content protection

The App ignores clipboard items marked by their source as concealed, transient, or automatically generated, and recognizes private clipboard markers used by some password managers. 1Password, Bitwarden, KeePassXC, and Apple Passwords are excluded by default. You can exclude additional source applications in Settings.

Applications handle clipboard data in different ways. Do not rely solely on automatic filtering to protect confidential information; exclude other sensitive applications in PasteDeck Settings when needed.

4. System permissions

The App uses the following system capabilities only when required for the relevant feature:

PasteDeck does not monitor or record keyboard input, read another application’s accessibility interface, or send paste actions without an explicit record selection. Declining Accessibility permission does not affect clipboard history, search, favorites, or Copy Mode.

5. In-App Purchases, network access, and third-party services

PasteDeck uses Apple’s StoreKit services to retrieve product information and localized prices, process annual subscriptions and one-time lifetime purchases, and verify, restore, and update purchase entitlements. These services communicate with Apple. Apple handles payment and any required Apple Account authentication under its own terms and privacy policy. PasteDeck’s developer does not receive your payment-card number, bank details, or Apple Account password.

The App uses purchase information made available by StoreKit, such as product identifiers, verified transaction information, subscription expiration and renewal status, revocations, and applicable billing grace periods, to determine which Pro features are available. PasteDeck does not send this purchase information to a developer-operated server and does not use a separate purchase server or transaction-analytics service.

Clipboard content, copied files and file references, clipboard history, favorites, and local settings are not sent to Apple or to PasteDeck’s developer as part of purchasing or restoring Pro. Clipboard data continues to be processed and stored locally on your Mac. The App contains no advertising SDK, third-party analytics SDK, Firebase, or third-party crash-reporting service. We do not sell or rent your clipboard content or personal information.

中文说明:App 内购买、网络访问与第三方服务

PasteDeck 使用 Apple 的 StoreKit 服务获取商品信息和本地化价格、处理年度订阅与一次性永久买断,以及验证、恢复和更新购买权益。这些服务会与 Apple 通信。付款及必要的 Apple 账户验证由 Apple 按照其条款和隐私政策处理。PasteDeck 开发者不会收到你的银行卡号、银行账户资料或 Apple 账户密码。

应用使用 StoreKit 提供的购买信息判断哪些 Pro 功能可用,包括商品标识、已验证的交易信息、订阅到期和续订状态、撤销记录,以及适用的账单宽限期。PasteDeck 不会将这些购买信息发送到开发者运营的服务器,也不使用独立的购买服务器或交易分析服务。

购买或恢复 Pro 不会将剪贴板内容、复制的文件与文件引用、剪贴板历史、收藏或本地设置发送给 Apple 或 PasteDeck 开发者。剪贴板数据继续只在你的 Mac 上本地处理和保存。应用不包含广告 SDK、第三方分析 SDK、Firebase 或第三方崩溃报告服务。我们不会出售或出租你的剪贴板内容或个人信息。

6. Retention and deletion

You can set a maximum history size and an automatic retention period. Favorite records remain until you remove them from favorites or delete them.

You can delete individual records or clear all non-favorite records in the App. Uninstalling the App removes local data in its sandbox. Accessibility permission and login-item status can also be managed in macOS System Settings.

7. Children

The App is not directed to children and does not intentionally collect personal information from children. Minors should use the App with the consent and guidance of a guardian.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy for product, legal, regulatory, or App Review reasons. Updates will be posted on this page. Where required by law, we will obtain appropriate consent before processing information.
