Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 21, 2026

TickerClip follows one simple principle: your screenshots and recognized text belong to you, not us.

1. Local text recognition

TickerClip performs OCR on your device. The Mac app uses Apple Vision; the Windows app will use Windows local text-recognition capabilities when released. It does not send screenshots, selected regions or recognized text to TickerClip, the payment provider or any other server.

2. App permissions

macOS requires Screen & System Audio Recording permission, and Windows requires the corresponding screen-capture permission, to capture a selected region. TickerClip reads a region only when you deliberately start a capture. You can revoke permission in system settings at any time.

3. Beta requests

When you request the beta, the site collects the email address, use case, computer system and type, and optional note you provide. We use this information only to send the matching beta, provide support and understand product needs—not to subscribe you to marketing emails.

Your request is delivered to TickerClip's operating inbox through Cloudflare's email service. The site does not retain these requests in an application database.

4. Purchases and licenses

Our Merchant of Record processes purchases, taxes, receipts and refunds under its own privacy policy. It handles the name, email, payment and tax information required to complete a transaction.

During license activation, TickerClip may send the license key, app version and a device instance name to the licensing service. Screenshots and recognized text are never included.

5. Analytics and advertising

The app contains no advertising, behavioral-tracking SDK or third-party analytics SDK. Our hosting provider may retain standard access logs required for security and reliability.

6. Retention

We do not store screenshots or recognized text on our servers. The payment provider retains order and license records as required for legal, tax and fraud-prevention purposes.

7. Contact

For privacy questions, email support@tickerclip.app.

8. Changes

If the product or its data handling changes materially, we will update this page and its revision date.
