Privacy Policy
MokoPaste Privacy Policy
This policy explains how MokoPaste handles information related to app operation, license activation, purchase recovery, and user settings across App Store distribution, website distribution, and related web pages.
1. Scope
This policy applies to the MokoPaste macOS app, the official website, and supporting services related to license activation and purchase recovery. If functionality differs by distribution channel, actual behavior and channel-specific page descriptions prevail.
2. Types of Information We May Process
Depending on features you enable, we may process:
- Clipboard content, including text, links, rich text, images, file references, and related metadata.
- Source app information such as app name or bundle identifier for filtering and ignore rules.
- Local preferences such as shortcuts, launch at startup, language, history capacity, favorites, tags, and ignored app lists.
- Local file access tokens, including file paths and security-scoped bookmarks for recovered file access.
- License data including license key, device instance identifier/name, activation status, activation count, and timestamps.
- Purchase recovery data such as checkout request IDs, order-related IDs, and returned purchase status.
- Website checkout-related data handled by payment/license providers, such as email, order ID, product ID, and license key.
3. How We Use Information
- Provide clipboard history, search, favorites, tags, source-app filtering, and paste-back workflows.
- Persist local history and settings on your device for continuous usage.
- Honor app ignore rules to reduce accidental capture of sensitive content.
- Validate, activate, and deactivate licenses, and support latest-purchase recovery after website checkout.
- Protect service reliability, troubleshoot issues, and prevent license abuse or repeated fraudulent activation.
4. Local Processing and Device Permissions
Core MokoPaste capabilities are primarily local. Clipboard history, search, image preview, and OCR extraction are processed on your device by default and are not uploaded to our servers solely for core functionality.
To support clipboard monitoring, shortcut launch, file paste-back, and auto paste, the app may request system permissions, sandbox file access abilities, or Accessibility permissions. These are used for feature operation, not for unrelated cloud upload.
5. Network Requests and Third-Party Services
In current versions, network requests are mainly used for license activation, validation, deactivation, and order recovery after website checkout. These requests are sent to our license service and may involve third-party payment/license providers.
- If you only use local clipboard features without checkout or activation, core clipboard content is not uploaded for those features.
- If you purchase on the website, we or providers may process order IDs, request IDs, email, product IDs, license keys, and purchase status.
- If you use the App Store channel, payment and entitlement flows are handled by Apple and may differ from website distribution.
- We do not use in-app ad SDKs, third-party analytics SDKs, or cross-site tracking technologies for ad tracking.
6. Information Storage
- Clipboard history, image cache, favorites, tags, and most preferences are stored on your local device by default.
- License status is stored in macOS Keychain by default to reduce plaintext exposure risk.
- Some order and license data needed for website purchase recovery may be stored by license/payment providers for support and license management.
7. Sharing and Disclosure
Except for the cases below, we do not sell your personal information or use clipboard content for ad marketing:
- We may share necessary information with cloud, payment, or license providers to support activation, checkout, recovery, and support operations.
- We may disclose necessary information when required by applicable law, regulation, court order, or government request.
- In mergers, acquisitions, asset transfers, or similar events, relevant data may transfer as part of the transaction under applicable law.
8. Your Choices and Control
- You can pause clipboard recording or add specific apps to your ignore list in the app.
- You can clear history, remove favorites, or remove saved licenses in the app.
- You can disable launch at startup and stop using or uninstall the app at any time.
- If you purchased through the website and need privacy support for orders/licenses, contact us via the details below.
9. Children's Privacy
MokoPaste is not designed for children. If you believe a minor has provided information requiring our processing without guardian consent, please contact us and we will take reasonable action after verification.
10. Policy Updates
We may update this policy based on product capabilities, distribution channels, legal requirements, or operations. Updated versions will be published on this page with the latest update date shown here. For material changes, we will provide notice on the website or in-app where appropriate.
