Clipstash Privacy First C

Privacy-first clipboard manager — your copy history stays 100% local. No cloud sync, no tracking, no data leaks.

--- Detailed Description ---

ClipStash automatically saves everything you copy and keeps it right in your browser's Side Panel. Instantly search, re-copy, and organize your clipboard history — all without sending a single byte of data off your device.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Install ClipStash and copy text as you normally do
2. Open the Side Panel to see your full clipboard history
3. Click any clip to re-copy it instantly
4. Search your history to find that text you copied hours ago

WHY CLIPSTASH?

Most clipboard managers ask for broad permissions like full tab access or all-site data. ClipStash takes the opposite approach: minimal permissions (clipboard read + local storage only), zero cloud sync, and complete transparency about what data is collected.

Your clipboard often contains sensitive information — passwords, API keys, personal messages. ClipStash ensures that data never leaves your device.

PRIVACY

All clipboard data is stored locally in your browser using chrome.storage.local. The only network requests are:
- Anonymous usage analytics via Google Analytics 4 (no personal data, no clipboard content)
- License key validation via Polar API (Pro users only)

Your clipboard content is never transmitted, analyzed, or stored externally. Period.

Built for developers, writers, researchers, and anyone who copies text frequently and values their privacy.
