Notch Space ("we", "our", or "the app") is a macOS productivity application designed to enhance workflows through clipboard management, temporary storage, and system utilities.
We are committed to protecting your privacy. Notch Space follows a local-first approach, meaning your data stays on your device unless required for essential functionality.
1. Data Collection
Local Data (Primary)
Notch Space stores the following data locally on your device only:
- Clipboard history
- Temporary shelf content (files, text, images)
- App preferences and settings
This data is never transmitted to external servers.
Limited External Data (License & Trial)
To support licensing and trial functionality, we process limited data:
- License key or purchase identifier
- Trial status (e.g., activation and validity)
- Basic anonymized device identifier
This data is used only for:
- License verification
- Trial management
We do not collect:
- Clipboard content
- Files or user-created content
- Personal or sensitive information
2. Permissions
Notch Space may request:
- Clipboard access → to enable clipboard history
- Accessibility permissions (if enabled) → for enhanced interactions
These are used strictly for functionality.
3. Analytics & Tracking
The Notch Space app does not use analytics tools, trackers, or behavioral monitoring systems.
This website (notchspace.com) uses Google Analytics to collect aggregated, anonymous visit statistics (e.g. pages viewed, general location, device type). We use this only to understand how the site is used and to improve it. You can opt out via browser extensions that block analytics or through Google's Analytics opt-out.
4. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or share user data.
5. Data Security
- All user content remains on-device
- Secure connections (HTTPS) are used for license verification
- We take reasonable steps to protect data
6. Your Control
You can:
- Clear clipboard history anytime
- Remove stored items
- Revoke permissions via macOS settings
7. Children's Privacy
Notch Space is not intended for children under 13.
8. Changes
We may update this policy. Changes will be reflected with a new effective date.
