TL;DR — The short version

01

Who we are

QuickClip is an open-source browser extension developed by shossain786. The source code is publicly available at github.com/shossain786/quick-clip.

02

Data we do not collect

QuickClip does not collect, transmit, store on any server, or share any of the following:

  • The text you copy, paste, clean, or convert
  • Your browsing history or the URLs of pages you visit
  • Any personally identifiable information
  • Usage analytics or telemetry of any kind
  • Crash reports or diagnostic data

03

What is stored locally on your device

QuickClip uses your browser's built-in local storage (chrome.storage.local) to save two things — both stored exclusively on your own device:

  • Clipboard history — the last 10 items you processed, so you can retrieve them later.
  • Your preferences — which features are toggled on or off, and your theme choice.

This data never leaves your browser. You can clear it at any time from the History tab inside the extension popup.

04

Permissions explained

QuickClip requests the following browser permissions. Here is exactly why each one is needed:

Permission Why it is needed
clipboardRead To read the text you have selected and copied, so it can be cleaned or converted.
clipboardWrite To write the cleaned or converted text back to your clipboard.
activeTab To detect copy events on the page you are currently viewing.
storage To save your preferences and clipboard history locally on your device.
scripting To inject the clipboard listener script into web pages.

05

Third-party services

QuickClip Phase 1 makes no calls to any external API or third-party service. All text processing — cleaning, conversion, and rephrasing — happens entirely within your browser using local JavaScript.

In a future version (Phase 2), an optional AI-powered rephrase feature may be introduced. If and when that happens, this policy will be updated before the feature is released, and it will require explicit opt-in from the user.

06

Children's privacy

QuickClip does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children under the age of 13. As no data is collected at all, there is nothing to protect in this regard.

07

Changes to this policy

If this privacy policy changes, the updated version will be published at this same URL with a revised "Last updated" date at the top of the page. Significant changes will also be noted in the extension's GitHub release notes.
