Privacy policy

Last updated

UniClip – Universal Clipboard sends text between your phones, tablets and computers. This policy says exactly what it stores, who else can see it, how long it is kept, and how to delete it. It describes what the app does today, not what it might do later.

The short version

What we store

Your account

When you sign in with Google or Apple, Firebase Authentication creates an account. We keep the email address, name and profile photo link that sign-in gives us, when you signed up and last signed in, and your plan.

Linked browsers and the extension

When you link a browser or the Chrome extension by scanning its QR code with the app, we create a separate device account for it. It has no email, carries the name the browser reports (such as "Chrome on Windows") and is tied to your account. Its session stores that name, whether it is a web browser or the Chrome extension, when it was linked and when it was last active. While a QR code waits to be scanned, for at most 2 minutes, we also keep that name and one-way hashes of the code's secrets. If you turn on notifications in a linked browser on Pro, its session also keeps the push token Firebase Cloud Messaging gives that browser, so new clips can reach it. The token is deleted with the session.

Your clips

For each clip: its text, when it was sent, when it expires on Free, its category, the account it belongs to, and the device it came from. That means the device type (Android, iPhone, iPad, web browser or Chrome extension), a description of it (the model and system version on Android, "iPhone" or "iPad" on Apple devices, the browser and system on a computer), and an identifier for the device. The app uses these details to show where a clip came from, and to avoid sending a clip back to the device that sent it. Our servers sort each clip into a category (link, code, phone number, email address or text) from its text.

Photos and files

You can send photos and files of up to 1 MB each on Free, and up to 10 MB each on Pro. We store the file itself, and with its clip its name, type and size, a picture's width and height, and a small preview of a picture. A photo is kept as it was sent, with any details the camera wrote into it, such as where it was taken. A picture some devices cannot show, such as HEIC, is converted to JPEG before it is sent, and one too large is made smaller. We count the bytes your photos and files take up, so they stay within your plan's storage (100 MB on Free, 2 GB on Pro). Our servers sort each into a category (photo, screenshot, graphic, animation, document, archive, key, media or other) from its type, size and name.

Notifications and subscription

If you allow notifications, each phone or tablet's notification token and platform are stored on your account so clips can reach your other devices. If you subscribe to Pro, RevenueCat tells our servers whether it is active, the plan, the store and when it renews or ends, and we store that on your account.

On your devices

Your settings, and clips, photos and files waiting to be sent, stay in the app's own storage on the device; on iPhone and iPad, what you share from another app waits in storage the app shares with its share extension. Photos and files you open are kept in the app's cache, which the device may clear. A linked browser or the Chrome extension keeps its sign-in, and may keep your recent clips and the photos and files you opened, in the browser's own storage until it signs out or you remove it.

Camera

The phone and tablet app uses the camera only to read the QR code of a browser you are linking. Nothing from the camera is stored or sent.

Your clipboard

Who can see your clips

Usage analytics and crash reports

To see how UniClip is used and where it breaks, the phone and tablet app sends usage events to Google Analytics for Firebase and crash reports to Firebase Crashlytics. The web app and the Chrome extension send usage events to Google Analytics.

Who else handles it

We use these service providers. Each handles data only to provide its part of the service.

That is the complete list. We do not sell your data or share it with anyone else.

How long we keep it

Deleting everything

Settings › Delete account signs out every browser and extension you linked, then deletes every clip you sent with its photos and files, your account record with its notification tokens, and your sign-in, straight away. You confirm with your Google or Apple sign-in first, and it cannot be undone. It does not cancel Pro: Google Play and the App Store bill that, so cancel with them first. RevenueCat and the stores keep their records of your purchases. If you signed in with Apple, you can also remove the app under Settings › your name › Sign in with Apple. Step-by-step instructions, including how to ask us to delete an account without the app.

This website and the web app

The pages of uniclip.app set no cookies of their own and run no analytics or advertising scripts. The web app keeps its sign-in in your browser's storage and talks only to Firebase and to Google Analytics, which may keep its own cookie there, as described under usage analytics above. The page the Chrome extension opens when you remove it sends only the answer you tap, if you tap one, under a random ID. Cloudflare hosts all of it and keeps standard server logs (IP address, page, time) for security, as any web host does. Store links may carry a tag naming the button you used, so the stores can tell us which buttons bring installs.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export or delete your data, and to object to some processing. Delete account covers deletion. For anything else, email us and we will reply within 30 days.

Children

UniClip is not meant for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them. If you believe a child under 13 has used it, contact us and we will delete their data.

Changes

If this policy changes, we will post the new version here with a new date before it takes effect. The rules for using the app are in the terms of service.
