The short version: we collect nothing.

What ClippyKeys stores

ClippyKeys stores two things: your clipboard history (the text you copy while the ClippyKeys keyboard is open, or that you save from the app) and your snippets (the shortcuts and text you create). It also stores your settings, like whether the number row is on.

All of this is saved as files on your iPhone, in a private App Group container that only the ClippyKeys app and its keyboard extension can read. It is never uploaded, synced to a server, or shared with anyone, including us.

What we collect

Nothing. ClippyKeys has no servers, no accounts, no analytics, no advertising and no third-party SDKs. The app and keyboard don't make network requests. Our App Store privacy label says “Data Not Collected”, and we mean it.

Why the keyboard asks for Full Access

iOS requires Full Access before a keyboard can read the clipboard or share data with its app. ClippyKeys uses Full Access for exactly two things:

• reading text you copy, so it can be added to your clipboard history; and
• syncing your snippets and settings between the ClippyKeys app and the keyboard.

Full Access is optional. Without it, ClippyKeys still works as a keyboard, but clipboard history and snippet syncing are turned off. iOS always uses the system keyboard in password fields, so ClippyKeys never sees passwords you type.

You're in control

• Delete individual clips, or clear your whole history, at any time.
• Pause clipboard capture with the Capture copied text switch in Settings.
• Deleting the app removes everything it stored.
