DATA STORAGE

- Your snippets, presets, and favorites back up automatically to your personal iCloud Drive, and favorites/recents also sync via iCloud Key-Value Store. All of this uses your own iCloud account — no data reaches our servers.

- Clipboard history stays on your device and is never backed up.

- Anonymous, aggregated usage diagnostics (no personal data, no tracking) are sent so we can prioritize fixes.
