Privacy Policy
Effective date: 31 March 2026
PasteOptions is a macOS clipboard history app. This privacy policy explains what the app stores, how it works, and what controls are available to users.
What PasteOptions does
PasteOptions can store a local history of copied text, images, and file references on your Mac so you can search and reuse them later.
Data collection
PasteOptions does not require an account and does not collect personal data for transmission to the developer.
- No analytics SDKs are included.
- No advertising or tracking is used.
- No cloud sync or remote storage is used by the current version of the app.
Clipboard history storage
If you enable clipboard history, PasteOptions stores clipboard items locally on your device. Clipboard capture is off until you explicitly enable it.
- Clipboard history is stored in the app’s local storage on your Mac.
- Sensitive apps are excluded by default.
- Likely sensitive text filtering is enabled by default.
Accessibility permission
PasteOptions may request macOS Accessibility permission if you choose to use the direct-paste feature. This permission is used only to paste a selected clipboard item back into the app you were previously using.
If you do not grant Accessibility permission, PasteOptions can still restore the selected item to the system clipboard for manual paste.
User controls
- You can enable or disable clipboard capture.
- You can pause capture at any time.
- You can clear recent history or clear all stored history from within the app.
- You can disable direct paste.
Children’s privacy
PasteOptions is not directed to children and does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
