Legal
Terms of Use
These terms govern your use of the cliiip website and macOS app.
Last updated: May 19, 2026
1. Acceptance
By using the cliiip website or app, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use cliiip.
cliiip is operated by HUMANE AI LTD, registered in England and Wales under company number 14815105.
2. What cliiip does
cliiip is a macOS clipboard history app. It can record clipboard items locally, search history, pin clips, capture available non-text items, redact sensitive content, quarantine high-risk clips, apply app-specific profiles, and optionally persist history locally with encryption.
cliiip does not provide a cloud clipboard account or cloud clipboard sync.
3. Licence and platform terms
cliiip is licensed, not sold. Subject to these Terms and any applicable distribution terms, you may use the app on devices you own or control.
If you install cliiip through Apple channels, Apple's applicable terms, including the Apple Media Services Terms and any Apple standard licence terms that apply to the download, may also govern your use.
4. Paid features, refunds, and subscriptions
Any price, paid feature, subscription, trial, renewal, tax, cancellation, or refund information will be shown before purchase in the relevant distribution or billing channel. Purchases and refunds may also be governed by the terms of the platform or payment channel used for that transaction.
5. Consumer rights
Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes rights you have under laws that cannot be limited or excluded, including applicable consumer rights for digital content.
6. Your responsibilities
- Use cliiip only in compliance with applicable law and these Terms.
- Do not use cliiip to store or process material you are not allowed to handle.
- Review your app settings before enabling capture for sensitive workflows.
- Keep encrypted export passphrases secure. We cannot recover lost passphrases.
- Maintain your own backups where your workflow requires them.
7. Permissions and local controls
Some features require macOS permissions, such as Accessibility permission for paste-directly behavior or assistive workflows. You control those permissions through macOS System Settings. Disabling permissions may limit related features.
8. Product limitations
Redaction, sensitive mode, blacklist, source-app profiles, and quarantine are safeguards, not guarantees. They may miss sensitive content, flag false positives, or behave differently depending on app settings, enabled rules, source attribution, clipboard content type, permissions, and macOS behavior.
Rich clipboard capture may store image data and file references or bookmarks locally. File history may depend on the original file remaining available and readable. cliiip should not be treated as a durable backup of copied files.
Direct paste and paste automation require appropriate macOS permissions and may not work uniformly in every app.
9. Acceptable use of the website
You agree not to:
- Attempt unauthorized access to systems, data, or private repositories.
- Interfere with website security or availability.
- Use automated traffic to overload or abuse the website.
10. Website submissions
The website does not include public submission forms. Do not attempt to send secrets, passwords, tokens, confidential documents, regulated data, private clipboard content, or other confidential information through the website.
11. Intellectual property
cliiip, including the app, website, branding, screenshots, copy, and documentation, is owned by the operator of cliiip or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, sell, distribute, reverse engineer, or create derivative works except where law expressly permits it.
12. Platform terms
App distribution may also be subject to Apple terms if you install cliiip through Apple channels.
13. No professional advice
cliiip can help identify, redact, quarantine, and organize clipboard content, but it is not legal, security, compliance, or data-loss-prevention advice. You remain responsible for deciding what information may be copied, stored, exported, shared, or deleted in your environment.
14. Disclaimers
cliiip is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the extent permitted by law, we disclaim implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not guarantee that cliiip will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that every sensitive value will be detected by redaction or quarantine.
15. Limitation of liability
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
Subject to the paragraph above, to the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for indirect, consequential, special, incidental, exemplary, or punitive losses, including loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, data, or business opportunity.
16. Termination
We may suspend or block access to website features if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms, abused the service, or created a security risk.
17. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction, unless mandatory consumer law in your country of residence provides otherwise.
