Your data belongs to you, and it stays on your device.
Last Updated: March 25, 2026ClipInVault is engineered on a Local-First architecture. All captured clipboard telemetry-including plaintext, rich text, images, and screenshots-is stored exclusively in a local SQLite database residing on your physical device.
No Cloud Sync: There are no external servers, no cloud backups, and no remote synchronization.
No Telemetry: We do not track your usage, clickstreams, or app performance.
Offline by Design: The application requires no internet connection to function.
For sensitive information, ClipInVault utilizes industry-standard AES-256 encryption.
Encryption at Rest: When a record is toggled as a "Secret," it is encrypted before it hits the disk.
Native Key Management: Encryption keys are never stored by the app. Instead, ClipInVault leverages your operating system's native secure enclave:
Windows: Credential Manager
macOS: Keychain Access
Linux: Secret Service API (libsecret)
Zero Access: As the developer, I have zero technical means to access your keys or decrypt your content.
The ClipInVault landing page is hosted via GitHub Pages.
Analytics-Free: This site does not use cookies, trackers, or third-party analytics (like Google Analytics).
Host Logs: Standard server-side logs (IP addresses and timestamps) are managed by GitHub as part of their hosting infrastructure and are subject to the GitHub Privacy Statement.
We operate a strict "No-Sharing" policy.
No Commercialization: Your data is never shared, sold, or transferred to third-party entities.
No Ad Networks: ClipInVault contains no advertisements and is free from any marketing SDKs or tracking pixels.
While we may refine the language of this policy as new features are added, our core mandate is immutable: Your data belongs to you, and it stays on your device. Any updates will be reflected on this page with an updated timestamp.
ClipInVault is built with transparency in mind. If you have questions regarding data handling or security implementations, please:
