ReCopied

Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 21, 2026

The short version: ReCopied is local by default. There is no account to create, no analytics, and no tracking. Your clipboard history stays on your Mac. If you want your saved Clip Lists, Formatters, and Rules on more than one Mac, you can turn on iCloud sync, and even then it travels through your own iCloud account, never through servers we run.

Who we are

ReCopied is a macOS application published by Corebean ("we," "us"). You can reach us through our contact form.

Information we collect

We do not collect, transmit, or store your personal information on our servers, because we don't operate servers that receive your data. ReCopied has no user accounts and requires no sign-in.

Your clipboard data

ReCopied keeps a history of what you copy so you can find and reuse it. This history (text, links, images, files, and related metadata) is stored locally on your Mac in the app's container. It is not sent to us or to any third party.

  • You control your history: delete individual clippings, erase all history, or set how much is kept in Settings.
  • ReCopied automatically skips content that apps mark as sensitive, so passwords and one-time codes are not captured.

iCloud Sync (optional)

ReCopied can sync your Clip Lists, Formatters, and Rules between Macs signed into the same Apple Account. It is off by default and does nothing until you turn it on in Settings › Sync.

When it is on, that data is stored in your own private iCloud database under your Apple Account. We cannot read it, and it never passes through servers we operate. Apple's handling of iCloud data is covered by Apple's Privacy Policy.

Your clipboard history and Clip Queue are never synced. They stay on the Mac that captured them, whether sync is on or off.

Turning sync off stops any further syncing. To remove data already stored in iCloud, delete the items in the app while sync is on, or sign out of iCloud in System Settings.

Network activity

ReCopied works offline. There are two exceptions. First, when you copy a web link, the app may fetch a preview (page title, thumbnail, or icon) directly from that URL using Apple's system LinkPresentation service. These requests go to the website you copied, not to us, and we do not log or receive them. Second, if you turn on iCloud sync, the app communicates with Apple's iCloud service to sync your Clip Lists, Formatters, and Rules. You are not otherwise tracked.

System permissions

To paste directly into other apps, ReCopied asks for macOS Accessibility permission. It's optional, used only to deliver the paste keystroke to the app you choose, and grants us no access to your data. Revoke it anytime in System Settings.

Analytics & tracking

ReCopied contains no analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking SDKs.

Purchases

If you buy ReCopied through the Mac App Store, the transaction is handled by Apple under Apple's Privacy Policy. We do not receive your payment details.

Children

ReCopied is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the app evolves. Material changes will be reflected here with a new "Last updated" date.
