Security & privacy

Built so we couldn't betray you if we tried

Clypy's privacy is built into the architecture, not left to a policy you have to trust. Here's exactly how a clip moves, and what we can and can't see.

END-TO-END ENCRYPTION

Keys never leave your devices

Every clip is sealed on the device that copied it. Keys are generated on your hardware and held in the OS keychain, never in a readable file. Our relay forwards ciphertext it has no way to open.

ON-DEVICE AI

Intelligence without disclosure

Semantic search, OCR, and classification all run locally. Your clips are never uploaded to a model, ours or anyone else's.

SECRET HYGIENE

Secrets are treated as radioactive

Where the operating system exposes the source app, configured password managers are ignored. Detected secrets from other sources are captured locally but concealed, kept off sync, and set to expire.

YOUR EXIT

Delete means delete

Wipe a clip, a device, or your whole history at any time. A minimal purchase identity can be deleted separately, and no readable clipboard archive is retained on our servers.

Plain-language commitments

No fine print, no asterisks

Security architecture
End-to-end encryption, local AI, and accountless pairing are the product baseline.
  • We cannot read your clips because our servers only ever hold ciphertext.
  • No Clypy profile or password. Purchases still create receipt and license records with the payment provider.
  • On the same network, clips sync device-to-device and skip our servers entirely.
  • AI runs on your device; clip contents are never sent for processing.
  • Configured password-manager sources are ignored; other detected secrets stay local, concealed, and out of sync.
  • Export or delete everything whenever you want. Deletion is permanent.
