StashPaste is built around a simple privacy principle:
Your clipboard content belongs on your Mac, not on our servers.
This Privacy Policy explains what information StashPaste processes, what stays entirely on your device, what limited information may be processed when you register a free license, activate or update StashPaste, subscribe to optional emails, interact with the website or contact us, and what choices and rights you have.
This Policy applies to the StashPaste website, the existing StashPaste macOS development line, and licensing, subscription, and contact communications. StashPaste is now the master brand for StashPaste Light and StashPaste Pro.
StashPaste Light is available as a session-history edition for macOS 13 or later on Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, with an English interface.
Pro is in development and develops the persistent architecture of the existing full App. Describing Pro here does not announce public availability or finalized Pro license terms.
1. Who Is Responsible for Your Personal Data
For personal data for which StashPaste determines the purposes and means of processing, the data controller is Milen Vasilev, an individual software developer based in Sofia, Republic of Bulgaria, operating the StashPaste brand.
Contact:
contact@stashpaste.com
(Full postal address for formal data-protection or legal notices is provided promptly upon request.)
Lemon Squeezy, our third-party license-registration and licensing provider, acts as our service provider for administering free $0 license keys and activations and separately processes platform, compliance, and security information associated with its service under its own applicable privacy terms.
2. The Most Important Part: Your Clipboard Content
StashPaste Light: session history
StashPaste Light does not intentionally persist clipboard history to disk. It maintains history in process memory for the running application session and discards it when the App exits. Light does not have a persistent clipboard-history database.
Ordinary application preferences and licensing state may be saved. This statement concerns intentional clipboard-history persistence; it is not a guarantee about macOS paging, temporary files, backups, other applications or the system clipboard. Quitting Light does not promise to clear the macOS system clipboard. Light captures text, images, links, colors and file references. Search, filters, pins, notes, Hidden access controls and Simple/Advanced views operate within the current session. Closing the panel, sleep and screen lock preserve history while the process runs; quitting, a crash, an update or another process restart discards it. The next launch begins with empty history.
StashPaste Pro and the existing full development line
The existing full App, which forms the foundation of Pro, stores clipboard history locally on your Mac. Clipboard records, metadata and thumbnails are protected at rest with SQLCipher. Full image files are stored separately with AES-GCM encryption. Loaded records and keys remain in process memory while the App is running. These controls do not guarantee protection from software with access to that process or from content exported to the system clipboard.
Clipboard content and local metadata
The following content and metadata description applies to both editions, with Light retaining history only for the running session and the full development line using persistent storage.
Your clipboard content is not designed to be uploaded, synchronized, or backed up to StashPaste-operated cloud servers.
This includes content such as:
- copied text, including text copied from rich-text applications (formatting may not be retained);
- URLs;
- colors;
- images;
- file references copied from Finder;
- other supported clipboard content.
Depending on the item, StashPaste may also store local metadata such as the source application’s name and identifier, the URL domain, the copy date and time, a file name and local path, an approximate size, and notes you add. For ordinary files copied from Finder, StashPaste stores a local file reference rather than a copy of the file itself. For clipboard images and image files, image data may also be stored locally by StashPaste.
Because this clipboard history remains local to your device, we do not receive or have access to it through normal operation of the App.
The App does not send your clipboard history to us for:
- analytics;
- advertising;
- profiling;
- AI training;
- behavioral tracking; or
- cloud synchronization.
You can delete locally stored clipboard history using the controls available within StashPaste.
Local clipboard data remains subject to the security of your Mac, your macOS account, your backups, and any other software with access to your device.
StashPaste should not be treated as your sole permanent archive or backup system.
3. Hidden Items, Authentication, and Application Exclusions
Pro and the existing full development line support Hidden items and local authentication. Hidden is an access flag within the encrypted Clipboard storage; it does not create a separate encrypted vault. Temporary Reveal allows access without removing that flag and ends on panel close, sleep, screen lock or restart. Unhide removes the flag persistently until you choose Hide again.
Touch ID or macOS password authentication may satisfy access checks. Startup authentication is optional and defaults to off for new storage. A password-protected Recovery Key file contains the storage key, not clipboard records or images. It can restore key access to existing encrypted storage; it cannot restore a missing database or deleted history.
Light supports Hidden records in its session history. Touch ID or macOS password authentication protects reveal, copy and paste access. Temporary authenticated access ends on panel close, sleep, screen lock or restart. Unhide removes the flag for the rest of the session unless you hide the item again. Optional authentication to open the clipboard is off by default. Hidden protects display and access in the App; it does not encrypt clipboard history in RAM or guarantee secure memory erasure.
Light does not use a Recovery Key workflow. These security mechanisms operate locally on your device.
Light, Pro and the existing full development line include mechanisms designed to exclude clipboard capture from supported applications such as password managers. Light also supports user-defined application exclusions.
Application exclusions are designed to reduce accidental capture of sensitive content but should not be treated as infallible.
Changes to macOS, third-party applications, application identifiers, clipboard behavior, configuration, or other technical factors may affect exclusion behavior.
You remain responsible for deciding which sensitive information you copy or retain.
We recommend storing passwords, recovery codes, cryptographic keys, and similar credentials in a dedicated password manager or secure credential-management system.
StashPaste does not record keystrokes outside the App.
Although your clipboard history remains local, limited personal information may be processed when you interact with free license registration, optional email subscriptions, the website, updates or contact communications.
Depending on how you use StashPaste, this may include:
- license key or license identifier;
- license activation status;
- device or installation instance identifier;
- activation and deactivation information;
- App version; and
- information necessary to enforce the permitted device limit.
Information made available to us by Lemon Squeezy may include:
- the email address used to register the license;
- a registration or order identifier;
- the registered product and license;
- registration and license status;
- country or region, where collected by the provider; and
- associated registration metadata necessary to administer the license.
StashPaste Light Version 1 (1.x.x) has a $0, perpetual license for one individual on one Mac at a time, with a seven-day registration grace period starting at the first launch of Light. Continued use after that period requires activation of the free license. It requires no payment method or subscription.
The existing StashPaste Version 1 license is also $0, with no payment method or subscription required to register it. Pro pricing and licensing are not announced.
Optional email subscriptions
If you subscribe to StashPaste emails, we process your email address, selected topics, the descriptions you confirmed, the signup source, and records of confirmation, preference changes and withdrawal. We use these records to send only the subscription emails you requested. Registering a license or submitting feedback does not subscribe you.
Subscriptions require email confirmation. Each subscription email provides preference management and an option to unsubscribe from all topics. Unsubscribing stops future subscription messages; a message already handed to the delivery provider may still arrive. We also process delivery failures, spam complaints and provider unsubscribe events to prevent further unwanted delivery. We do not collect individual open or click activity in our subscription service. Our email provider may measure anonymous aggregate engagement even when individual tracking consent is declined.
Unconfirmed requests are removed after seven days. Confirmed choices and their history are kept while needed to manage the subscription, until you request deletion. Delivery records are kept for up to 180 days. After deletion, a keyed address fingerprint is retained in the independent recovery journal for 45 days so that an older backup does not restore deleted personal records. Keyed fingerprints for permanent delivery or spam blocks are retained to prevent further sending. They are not used to contact you. Backup copies expire on their existing retention schedule; withdrawals and deletions are applied before subscription sending resumes after recovery.
You can manage subscriptions without creating an account, using a temporary secure link sent to your email address. Email delivery providers process the recipient address, message content and delivery information necessary to provide this service.
When enabled, subscription signup, requests for an email preferences link, and feedback submissions use Google reCAPTCHA to help prevent automated abuse. The security check loads Google resources in your browser and sends a verification token to our server for validation with Google. Google may process technical browser and device information and use a security cookie. See Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. The check does not subscribe you to any topic or replace email confirmation.
If you contact us, we may receive:
- your email address;
- your name, if you choose to provide it;
- the selected message topic and your message;
- macOS or App version information and other diagnostic information that you voluntarily provide;
- license information you provide; and
- attachments you voluntarily send by email.
The website form does not offer an attachment upload. Do not send passwords, authentication codes, private keys or sensitive clipboard content in contact messages. Sending a message does not create a technical-support entitlement or guarantee a response to requests for voluntary technical assistance. We will handle privacy requests, consumer claims and other communications as required by applicable law, including any statutory response deadlines.
When you access the StashPaste website or when the App makes a network request, the relevant server or service provider may necessarily receive technical information such as:
- IP address;
- date and time of the request;
- browser or application user agent;
- operating-system or application version information;
- requested URL or resource; and
- basic server or security logs.
We do not use this technical information to build behavioral advertising profiles.
5. Why We Process Personal Data
Where applicable data-protection law requires a legal basis for processing, we rely on the following bases depending on the context.
Providing and administering your license
We process licensing and registration-related information where necessary to:
- issue and activate your applicable free Version 1 license;
- verify license validity;
- manage the one-device activation limit;
- allow device deactivation and transfer;
- administer the use rights granted by your license; and
- handle license-registration inquiries.
Where GDPR applies, this processing is generally necessary for the performance of our contract with you.
Security and abuse prevention
We may process limited technical, activation and registration information to:
- prevent license-key abuse;
- detect fraudulent activations;
- protect the App and website;
- investigate security incidents; and
- maintain service integrity.
Where GDPR applies, we rely on our legitimate interests in protecting StashPaste, our users, and our licensing system, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.
Optional email subscriptions
We process optional email-subscription information to confirm your signup request, send only the specific subscription topics you selected, and allow you to manage preferences or unsubscribe. Where GDPR applies, sending subscription emails is based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you may withdraw at any time without affecting your software license or use of StashPaste.
We also process rate-limiting fingerprints, delivery-failure and spam-complaint records, and the keyed recovery journal to prevent abuse, stop unwanted delivery, and respect your withdrawal or erasure choices across backup recovery. Where GDPR applies, this processing is based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) in preventing abuse and unwanted communications and on compliance with our legal obligations (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR) to honor consent withdrawals and objections.
We process information you voluntarily send so that we can consider your message, respond where appropriate, administer your license, assess a security report or handle a privacy or legal request. Contact communications do not form a contractual technical-support service.
Depending on the request, the legal basis may be performance of our contract, steps taken at your request, compliance with a legal obligation or our legitimate interest in handling communications.
Website analytics
We operate strictly first-party, cookie-free website analytics to measure aggregate page visits and clicks on download and free-license links. Analytics does not store or read tracking cookies or persistent client identifiers on your device, does not build individual user profiles, and does not track visitors across third-party websites. Where GDPR applies to server-side processing of request metadata, we rely on our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) in maintaining, evaluating, and improving the website through privacy-preserving first-party audience measurement, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms. Browser storage is written only when you explicitly request to save a preference (such as turning analytics off or choosing a display theme). You may object to (opt out of) analytics at any time using Analytics settings in the website footer or by enabling a Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signal in your browser.
Legal claims and disputes
We may retain or disclose information where necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims or resolve disputes. Where GDPR applies, this may be based on our legitimate interests in protecting and enforcing legal rights, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms. Processing required by a specific legal obligation, including an applicable court order, is addressed below.
Legal obligations
We may retain or disclose information where reasonably necessary to comply with:
- tax or accounting requirements;
- regulatory requirements;
- court orders; or
- other obligations imposed by applicable law.
Where GDPR applies, such processing may be necessary for compliance with a legal obligation.
6. Licensing and Lemon Squeezy
StashPaste uses Lemon Squeezy for StashPaste Light and existing free Version 1 license registration, activation, validation and deactivation. Pro license terms are not finalized.
The Version 1 license-registration flow is $0, with no payment method or subscription required. Lemon Squeezy may process information necessary to issue and administer the license, including contact details, registration or order identifiers, product and license details, activation information and standard technical connection information.
Lemon Squeezy may provide StashPaste with limited registration and license information necessary to administer the license. It processes information under its own applicable Privacy Policy and service terms. This Policy does not describe free Version 1 registration as payment-card processing or a paid transaction.
7. License Activation
License activation and validation may require the App to communicate with licensing infrastructure operated by or through Lemon Squeezy.
These requests may include information necessary to validate and administer the license, such as:
- license key or license identifier;
- device or installation instance information;
- activation status; and
- standard technical connection information.
Clipboard contents and clipboard history are not part of license-validation data.
For the current Light release, activation sends the license key and a generic installation label, “StashPaste Light v1 Mac”, rather than your Mac’s actual name. Validation and deactivation send the license key and the activation instance identifier. The licensing service also receives standard connection information when these requests are made.
Reasonable licensing information may be retained for as long as necessary to administer your active perpetual license, prevent abuse, resolve disputes, and comply with applicable legal obligations.
8. Software Updates
StashPaste may make network requests to check for:
- new software releases;
- security updates;
- update metadata;
- compatibility information; or
- other documented update information for the applicable edition.
Downloading an update also requires a network connection to the relevant distribution infrastructure.
These requests may necessarily expose standard technical connection information, such as your IP address and software user agent, to the relevant server or hosting provider.
These update requests do not include your clipboard history or clipboard contents.
Light and the existing full App read registration configuration from bundled configuration files; they do not fetch registration configuration from the website. Licensing requests and software updates are separate from local clipboard processing.
You may also create network requests when you explicitly open a StashPaste website or contact page from within the App.
9. Website Services
The StashPaste website uses a limited number of external service providers.
Website hosting
Our hosting infrastructure may process technical connection and security information such as IP addresses, request times, requested resources, and user-agent information in order to serve the website and protect it against abuse.
Lemon Squeezy free license registration
The website provides an outbound Get Free License link to Lemon Squeezy. It does not embed the provider’s registration script or load registration resources before you follow that link.
When you follow the link, Lemon Squeezy and its delivery providers may receive standard connection information such as your IP address, browser and device information, requested resource and referring page.
Selecting the link opens the provider’s registration page. Lemon Squeezy processes information needed to display the form and issue and administer the $0 license, under its own privacy practices and terms. Following the link does not itself register a license. See Lemon Squeezy’s Privacy Policy for its processing, cookies and related technologies.
Messages sent through the StashPaste contact form are stored in a service we operate. We process your email address, topic and message, the relevant App edition and contact page, and any optional name or system/version information you provide to consider and respond to your request.
Limited technical connection information is also processed to prevent spam and protect the service. Contact-form information is not used for advertising or included in website analytics.
Do not submit passwords, private keys, authentication codes or sensitive clipboard contents through the contact form.
Optional Ko-fi tips
If you follow an optional Ko-fi tip link, you leave the StashPaste website and interact with Ko-fi under its own privacy practices. StashPaste does not embed a Ko-fi widget, script, image or tracking resource and does not send your form or license information to Ko-fi. The outbound link does not initiate a Ko-fi request before you choose to follow it.
Ko-fi and the payment providers you use there may process contact, contribution, payment and technical connection information under their own policies. Any information made available to us in connection with a tip is separate from license registration. No StashPaste license, feature, update, service, device limit or technical assistance depends on a tip.
Product-news email
The website offers optional email subscriptions on selected topics through the subscription page and optional footer forms. Free-license registration and contact-form submissions are not presented as consent to marketing; every email subscription is optional, separate from downloading, activation and continued Version 1 use, and requires email confirmation before any topic emails are sent.
Fonts and external resources
The website currently uses system fonts and serves its images and other presentation assets from its own origin. It does not request fonts from Google Fonts.
If you follow an external link, the destination provider may receive standard technical connection information under its own privacy practices.
10. Cookies, Analytics, Advertising, and Tracking
The StashPaste App does not use your clipboard contents for advertising or behavioral profiling.
StashPaste does not operate a cloud service that analyzes your clipboard history.
This version of the StashPaste website does not embed advertising trackers or cross-site behavioral advertising scripts.
If you follow a free-license registration link, Lemon Squeezy and its providers may use cookies, local storage or similar technologies on their own pages under their own privacy policies. We do not control those providers’ technologies or processing. See Lemon Squeezy’s Privacy Policy.
Browser preferences
The website uses browser storage strictly when necessary to save a preference you explicitly choose, such as your display theme or an opt-out preference for analytics. If analytics is available, it runs by default without storing cookies or tracking identifiers in your browser. If you turn analytics off, we store that opt-out preference in your browser so your choice is remembered until you change it. If browser storage is unavailable, the preference applies only to the current page. When you open a temporary email-preference management link, the subscription service sets a short-lived (up to 30 minutes), strictly necessary HttpOnly, SameSite=Strict session cookie and anti-forgery token scoped to the subscription service solely to authenticate your preference update, and deletes the session cookie once you save your choices or unsubscribe.
Website analytics
We use strictly first-party website analytics by default for aggregate audience measurement (understanding page visits and clicks on download and free-license links). Analytics runs on infrastructure we operate, does not use analytics cookies or persistent client-side identifiers, is not shared with third parties or advertising networks, and is not required to browse the website, download the App, register a license or contact us.
Analytics processes visited page paths, referral websites, browser and device information, language, screen size and technical connection information to produce aggregate statistics without creating persistent device fingerprints or cross-site profiles. Your IP address is processed transiently to derive aggregate visit statistics and approximate location (such as country or region) and is not stored in raw form in the analytics database. Analytics events do not include contact-form contents, license keys or clipboard contents. Page addresses exclude query strings and fragments, and we do not use screen recording or session replay.
Analytics starts when the page loads unless you have turned it off or your browser sends a Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signal. Use Analytics settings in the footer to change your preference at any time. Turning analytics off stops future collection but does not automatically delete aggregate data already processed; contact us about your applicable data rights.
11. How Long We Keep Personal Data
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to legal requirements.
Clipboard history
Light: session history, including pins, notes and Hidden flags, is discarded when the running application exits. It does not intentionally persist a clipboard-history database. Panel close, sleep and screen lock retain history while the process runs. The default history memory limit is 128 MB, with 64 MB and 256 MB options. Older eligible items can be removed as this limit is reached; pinned and Hidden items are protected from automatic removal but are still discarded on process exit. This history-data limit is not a limit on the entire App’s memory use.
Because we do not normally receive that history, we do not control its retention.
Licensing records
Information required to administer a perpetual StashPaste license may be retained for as long as the license remains active and for a reasonable period afterward where necessary to:
- administer the license and registration history;
- prevent fraud or license abuse;
- resolve disputes; or
- comply with legal obligations.
Because a Version 1 license is perpetual, you may at any time choose to terminate your license and request deletion of your licensing personal data under your right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR) by contacting contact@stashpaste.com. Upon verification, we will deactivate the license key, delete your licensing records from our systems, and request deletion or anonymization from our licensing provider (Lemon Squeezy), except to the extent limited retention is necessary to comply with a legal obligation or to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims (including resolving fraud or license-abuse disputes) under Art. 17(3)(b) and (e) GDPR.
Contact-form messages are normally deleted 180 days after we mark them resolved; messages marked as spam are deleted after 30 days. Open messages are kept while needed to consider or respond to them.
Correspondence and related records may be kept longer where needed to administer a license, handle a privacy or security matter, comply with a legal obligation or resolve a dispute.
Optional email subscriptions
Unconfirmed subscription requests are removed after 7 days. Confirmed subscription records and consent history are retained while your subscription remains active or until you request deletion. Delivery and webhook outcome records are retained for up to 180 days. After deletion or withdrawal, a keyed address fingerprint (not your raw email address) is retained in the independent recovery journal for 45 days so that restoring an older backup cannot re-subscribe you or restore deleted personal records, and permanent delivery-failure or spam-complaint fingerprints are retained solely to prevent future unwanted sending.
Website analytics, server logs, and backups
Analytics events older than 90 days are deleted. Related visit records are kept only while needed for events within that period.
Standard server and security logs are retained for up to 30 days unless a longer period is needed to investigate a specific security or abuse incident.
Encrypted backups are kept separately for recovery for up to 30 days and are not used for routine access to personal data. Recorded deletions are applied before restored data is brought back into use.
Legal and contribution records
Legal or optional-contribution records may need to be retained where required for legal, accounting, tax, abuse-prevention or dispute-resolution purposes. These records are separate from the free Version 1 license fee.
Lemon Squeezy and Ko-fi separately determine retention periods for information they process under their own policies.
12. Service Providers and Recipients
We may disclose limited personal information to service providers only where reasonably necessary to operate StashPaste and related services.
These include providers of:
- free license registration, activation and validation (Lemon Squeezy — Sold through Link, LLC, f/k/a Lemon Squeezy, LLC, USA);
- website hosting, content delivery, update-feed storage, and network security (Cloudflare, Inc., USA / global edge network);
- software-update distribution;
- email delivery and related communications; and
- security, abuse prevention and infrastructure services.
Service providers may process information under their own terms, our contractual arrangements with them, or both, depending on their role.
We may also disclose information where required by law, legal process, or a valid governmental or judicial request.
We do not disclose your locally stored clipboard history to service providers because StashPaste is not designed to receive that history.
13. International Data Transfers
Service providers involved in licensing, website and network delivery, email or optional tips process information outside your country, including in the United States outside the EU or EEA.
For current transfers of personal data from the EU/EEA to the United States, the following Chapter V GDPR transfer mechanisms apply depending on the provider’s role:
- Cloudflare, Inc.: certified under the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF) adequacy decision (Art. 45 GDPR) and provides the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs, Art. 46(2)(c) GDPR) in its standard customer Data Processing Addendum;
- Lemon Squeezy (Sold through Link, LLC, f/k/a Lemon Squeezy, LLC): where it processes data on our behalf under its public Data Processing Addendum (§11.1), international transfers rely on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs, Art. 46(2)(c) GDPR) referenced in that addendum; where it processes registration, buyer, or compliance data as an independent controller under its own terms, it is responsible for its own transfer safeguards as described in Lemon Squeezy’s Privacy Policy; and
- for any other international transfer we arrange that requires safeguards under applicable data-protection law, an applicable adequacy decision or approved Standard Contractual Clauses.
You may contact us for information about transfers we arrange, the safeguards that apply, and how to obtain a copy of the relevant contractual safeguards where applicable law provides that right.
14. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures appropriate to the limited personal data we process.
These measures are intended to protect information against:
- unauthorized access;
- accidental loss;
- misuse;
- alteration; and
- unauthorized disclosure.
No computer system, storage medium, network connection, encryption system, or authentication mechanism can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You are responsible for maintaining the security of your own Mac, macOS account, backups, and credentials.
15. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live and which laws apply, you may have rights concerning your personal data.
These may include the right to:
- request access to personal information we hold about you;
- request correction of inaccurate information;
- request deletion of information;
- request restriction of processing;
- object to certain processing based on legitimate interests;
- receive certain information in a portable format;
- withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and
- lodge a complaint with an appropriate data-protection authority.
These rights may be subject to legal exceptions.
To make a privacy request, contact:
contact@stashpaste.com
We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.
Where GDPR applies, we will respond to requests to exercise your rights without undue delay and within one month of receipt. Where permitted because of the complexity and number of requests, that period may be extended by up to two further months; we will inform you of the extension and its reasons within the initial month. If we do not act on a request, we will explain the reasons and the available complaint and judicial-remedy options within the period required by applicable law. Other applicable statutory response deadlines remain unaffected.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising a privacy right provided by applicable law.
16. European Union and EEA Users
If the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) applies to you, you have the rights provided by the GDPR, subject to its conditions and exceptions.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority responsible for data protection in your country.
Where StashPaste is established in Bulgaria and the Bulgarian supervisory authority is competent, the relevant authority is the Commission for Personal Data Protection (CPDP).
You are encouraged to contact us at contact@stashpaste.com if you believe there is a privacy problem so that we can try to resolve it promptly. Contacting us first is optional and does not limit your right to complain directly to a competent supervisory authority.
17. United States Privacy Rights
Residents of certain U.S. states may have additional privacy rights where the relevant state privacy law applies to StashPaste.
Such rights may include access, correction, deletion, portability, or the ability to opt out of certain forms of sale, sharing, or targeted advertising.
StashPaste does not sell your locally stored clipboard history.
StashPaste does not use clipboard content processed locally by the App for cross-context behavioral advertising or targeted advertising.
If an applicable U.S. privacy law grants you a right that is not specifically described in this Policy, you may contact us at:
contact@stashpaste.com
and we will handle the request as required by applicable law.
18. No Sale of Clipboard Content
StashPaste does not sell your clipboard contents.
We do not operate a commercial database of users’ clipboard histories.
We do not monetize clipboard contents through advertising, data brokerage, behavioral profiling, or sale to third parties.
Because clipboard history is designed to remain locally on your Mac, we normally do not possess it in the first place.
19. Children
StashPaste is a general-purpose productivity application and is not directed specifically at children under 16 years of age (or under 14 years of age where Bulgarian information-society consent rules apply). Do not register a license or submit personal data through the website if you are under the applicable minimum age without required parental authorization.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the App for advertising or profiling purposes.
If you believe a child has provided personal information to us through a contact message or another online service and you believe that information should be removed, contact:
contact@stashpaste.com
20. Third-Party Websites and Services
StashPaste may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.
Examples may include:
- Lemon Squeezy;
- Apple;
- documentation sites;
- Ko-fi; and
- other external resources.
Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.
This Privacy Policy does not control how independent third parties process information once you interact directly with their services.
21. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when necessary to reflect:
- changes to StashPaste;
- changes to service providers;
- changes in data-processing practices;
- security or infrastructure changes; or
- changes in applicable law.
The current version will be published with an updated revision date.
We will provide notice of changes to personal-data processing where and when applicable law requires it, including before changed processing begins where required. For other material changes, we may provide additional notice where appropriate.
We will not use an updated Privacy Policy as a basis to begin uploading or monetizing your existing local clipboard history without providing any notice or consent required by applicable law.
22. Language and Translations
This Privacy Policy was originally prepared in English.
Translations may be provided to make the Policy easier to understand.
The English version is the authoritative reference version in the event of an inconsistency between translations, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Where applicable law requires privacy information to be provided or interpreted in a particular language, those mandatory requirements apply.
