Privacy first: Why your clipboard manager shouldn't have internet access

Think about what passes through your clipboard on any given day: passwords, 2FA codes, private messages, API keys, and financial data. Your clipboard is essentially a stream of your most sensitive information.

The Problem with Cloud Sync

Many modern apps offer "cloud sync" to keep your history updated across devices. But syncing means your data leaves your device. It means it touches a server, traverses the internet, and lives in a database you don't control.

We fundamentally believe that a clipboard manager has no business talking to the internet.

100% Local, 100% Offline

ClipDeck makes exactly zero network requests. There are no analytics trackers, no crash reporters, and no sync engines. Every single clip is stored locally on your hard drive at ~/Library/Application Support/dev.pythogen.ClipDeck/.

Furthermore, it relies completely on macOS's native FileVault encryption. Your data is encrypted at rest by the operating system, ensuring that your private clips stay completely private.
