Privacy Policy for Clipwell

Effective August 2026

What we collect

Nothing. Clipwell does not collect, transmit, or sell any personal data. The app makes no network calls of any kind — no analytics SDK, no crash reporting, and no advertising SDK.

Your clips and snippets

Text, images, and files you save are stored in Clipwell's own private container on your device, shared only between the Clipwell app and its own keyboard, Share and widget extensions. They are not synced to iCloud or any other service, and they are not readable by other apps.

The keyboard and "Allow Full Access"

Clipwell includes a keyboard extension. iOS requires that you grant it Allow Full Access before it can read the clips you saved, because those clips live in a shared container and iOS gates shared-container access behind that permission.

iOS warns that a keyboard with Full Access "can access all the data you type." That warning is shown for every third-party keyboard. For Clipwell specifically:

• Clipwell does not record, log, or store what you type.
• Clipwell stores only the items you explicitly choose to save.
• Clipwell has no network capability, so it cannot transmit anything anywhere.

Your clipboard

Clipwell reads your clipboard only when you ask it to, and only at that moment:

• when you run Save Clipboard — the shortcut most people bind to Back Tap. iOS shows its own paste confirmation the first time, and you can allow it permanently under Settings → Clipwell → Paste from Other Apps;
• when you tap the system Paste button inside the Clipwell keyboard;
• when you send something to Clipwell through the Share Sheet, or through a shortcut that reads the clipboard for it.

It cannot and does not monitor your clipboard in the background — iOS does not permit any app to do that. What it reads is saved on your device and sent nowhere.

Purchases

Clipwell Pro is a one-time purchase handled entirely by Apple's StoreKit. Clipwell never sees or stores your payment information.

Children's Privacy

Clipwell does not knowingly collect any data from anyone, including children.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

If a future feature ever changes any of the above, this policy will be updated before that feature ships, with the effective date revised.
