Summary
Tack is a local-first clipboard history utility for macOS. Tack does not require an account and does not upload your clipboard history to a Tack-operated server.
Clipboard content
When clipboard monitoring is active, Tack may save text and images that you copy so you can find and reuse them later. Saved history is stored locally in Tack’s application container on your Mac.
Tack ignores clipboard items that source applications identify as concealed, transient, or automatically generated. Tack also avoids recording content copied from excluded applications. You can manage exclusions, pause monitoring, choose a history limit, and clear saved history from within Tack.
Information we collect
Tack does not intentionally collect or transmit clipboard history, personal identifiers, analytics, advertising data, location data, or contacts. The current app contains no third-party analytics or advertising SDK.
Network access
Tack does not require network access for its clipboard-history features and does not upload clipboard content.
Automatic Paste permission
If Automatic Paste is enabled, Tack requests macOS Post Event permission so it can send Command-V after you explicitly select a clipboard item. Tack does not use this permission to read, inspect, or control another application’s interface. Without permission, the selected item remains on the clipboard for manual paste.
Retention and deletion
Clipboard history remains on your Mac until removed by your history limit, cleared by you, or deleted when you remove Tack’s data. Clear History permanently removes the locally saved clipboard-history records managed by Tack.
Sharing and sale
Tack does not sell personal information or clipboard content and does not share clipboard history with third parties.
Security
Tack uses protections provided by macOS, including App Sandbox. No software can guarantee absolute security. Avoid retaining sensitive clipboard content longer than necessary and use Tack’s pause, exclusion, and clear-history controls when appropriate.
Children’s privacy
Tack is not directed specifically to children and does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when Tack’s features or legal obligations change. The revised policy and effective date will be published on this page.
