PRIVACY/

Short version: nothing about you is collected. No accounts, no analytics, no ads, no tracking.

01 / THIS WEBSITE

  • No cookies, no analytics, no trackers. Nothing loads from other companies.
  • Hosting. GitHub Pages hosts the site and may log IP addresses for security. I can't see those logs.
  • Downloads come from GitHub Releases.
  • Tips happen on GitHub Sponsors or Ko-fi, under their own policies.

02 / CLIPMUNK

Clipmunk works on your PC. It has no accounts, no analytics and no crash reporting. It goes online only in these cases:

UPDATE CHECK → GITHUBAbout 3 seconds after launch, then every 6 hours. Your IP (as with any request) and the app version in the User-Agent (like "Clipmunk/1.9"). Nothing else.
UPDATE → GITHUBOnly when you click Update in the popup: the new installer downloads from GitHub Releases. Nothing downloads on its own.
ADD CHANNEL → DISCORDWhen you add or check a channel, by link or by invite code: one request to that webhook to see that it works. Nothing is posted.
SHARE → DISCORDOnly when you press it: the clip, your message if you write one, and "<your display name> via Clipmunk". If the clip is over the server's upload limit, a smaller copy is made on your PC first.

Clipboard. When Clipmunk opens or comes back to the front, it reads the clipboard on your PC to spot a clipmunk-invite: code. The clipboard never leaves your PC, and Clipmunk asks before it adds any channel.

Stored on your PC. Settings and channel links (webhook links are saved in plain text) in %APPDATA%\ClipDrop; a thumbnail and clip-info cache in %LOCALAPPDATA%\ClipDrop\cache; compressed clips in Videos\Clipmunk (older installs: Videos\ClipDrop). "ClipDrop" was Clipmunk's former name.

Cleanup. By default, compressed copies older than 30 days go to the Recycle Bin. You can change this in settings, and it only touches files Clipmunk made, never your recordings. The Compressed clips window shows the space used and can empty it to the Recycle Bin.

Uninstalling leaves settings and the cache behind, so you keep them if you reinstall. To remove everything, delete both ClipDrop folders above (paste %APPDATA% and %LOCALAPPDATA% into the Explorer address bar to find them) and, if you like, your compressed clips folder.

NOTICETreat a webhook link like a password: anyone with it can post.
