ClipPin privacy policy
ClipPin is a clipboard manager for Mac and Android from Leadomator LLC. You pin clips so they stay at the top of the list. This policy describes where those clips go.
What it stores
On each device, ClipPin stores the clips you keep, which ones are pinned, and your settings. That stays on the device. ClipPin has no account and no sign-in.
A clip is whatever you copied. That can include personal information. ClipPin treats it as private to you.
Sync
Sync is off until you turn it on and pair a device with a short code. After pairing, clips move between your devices encrypted with AES-256-GCM. Each device holds its own keys.
On the same network, devices talk to each other directly. If you turn on an internet relay, that server only forwards the encrypted frames. It does not have the keys and cannot read a clip. You choose the relay address.
Permissions
On the Mac, local network access is used to find your other devices. Import and export use files you pick. The version from outside the Mac App Store can press the paste keystroke after you grant Accessibility. The Mac App Store version cannot. A click copies, and you paste.
On Android, notifications show sync status and pinned clips. A foreground service keeps sync alive. The Google Play version does not use an accessibility service and does not draw over other apps. You send a clip with Share or the Send clipboard Quick Settings tile. The version installed outside Play can, if you turn them on, use an accessibility service to notice a copy and a floating button to pick a clip. Those stay off until you enable them.
What it does not do
ClipPin does not sell information, use it for advertising, or share it with third parties. There is no analytics. ClipPin is not directed at children.
