Mimic

Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 30, 2026

Our Commitment to Privacy

Mimic is designed with privacy as a core principle. We believe your clipboard data is yours and yours alone. This policy explains exactly how we handle — or more accurately, how we do not handle — your data.

Data Collection

Mimic does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Period.

All clipboard history is stored locally on your device in a SQLite database file (%APPDATA%\Mimic\history.db). This file never leaves your computer unless you explicitly configure cloud sync.

What We Do NOT Collect

  • Clipboard content (text, images, or files)
  • Keyboard or typing data
  • Application usage statistics
  • Device or system information
  • Location data
  • IP addresses
  • Email addresses or contact information
  • Any form of telemetry or analytics

Local Storage

Everything Mimic captures stays in a single local SQLite database on your machine. You can view, export, or delete this data at any time from within the app.

Cloud Sync (Optional)

If you choose to enable cloud sync, Mimic will write an encrypted JSON snapshot to your Dropbox App Folder or a local folder you specify. This snapshot is transmitted through Dropbox or your local cloud provider — Mimic never has access to it.

LAN Sharing (Optional)

The Friends feature allows you to share clips over your local network. All communication is password-protected and stays within your LAN. Data is never routed through external servers.

Third-Party Services

Mimic does not use any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services. There are no embedded trackers, no telemetry SDKs, and no data-sharing agreements with any company.

Children's Privacy

Mimic does not knowingly collect data from anyone. Since we collect zero data, there is nothing to protect or delete for any user of any age.

Changes to This Policy

If this policy ever changes (unlikely, given our zero-data model), we will update this page and note the change date. Continued use of Mimic constitutes acceptance of any changes.
