Privacy and data

Droppy is local-first. Clipboard contents, files and captures are processed on your Mac and are not collected, transmitted or stored by us.

  • On-device by default. Text Capture, Remove Background, Voice Transcribe, Converter, PDF Compress and Video Compress all run locally. Nothing is uploaded for processing.
  • Droppy Sync is end to end encrypted. Records are sealed on the device with a key your Mac made and keeps in its Keychain. That key never reaches a server.
  • Droppy Cloud is not end to end encrypted. It is a deliberate, separate path for files you choose to share. See Droppy Cloud.
  • AI apps get only what you allow. MCP is off until you turn it on, every permission is its own switch, and nothing listens on the network. See MCP.
  • Concealed copies are respected. Anything an app marks as concealed, such as a password manager's copy, stays out of clipboard history.
  • The Agents Droplet reads only your own local agent session logs. It shows tool calls and files, never paths or prompts on the phone.
