What Recopy Stores

• Clipboard content: plain text, rich text, image paths, and file paths
• Thumbnails: images resized to 400px max width, stored as binary blobs in local SQLite
• Original images: saved to the app data directory on disk
• Content hashes: SHA-256 hashes used for deduplication
• Timestamps and metadata: creation time, update time, source application name

Where Data is Stored

All data is stored in a local SQLite database (WAL mode). Nothing is synced to the cloud.

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/com.recopy.app/
• Windows: %APPDATA%/com.recopy.app/
• Images: {app_data}/images/YYYY-MM/

What We Don't Do

• No data collection — we never collect any of your clipboard data
• No analytics or telemetry — no usage tracking of any kind
• No cloud sync — your data never leaves your machine
• No network requests — except checking for updates in a future release
• No third-party services — zero external dependencies at runtime

Data Retention

• Users control the retention policy: by days, by count, or unlimited
• Favorited items are protected from auto-cleanup
• You can clear all clipboard history at any time from Settings
