Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2, 2026
Short version: the Nekobar app keeps everything on your Mac. The website collects only what a purchase needs.
The app
- Your data stays on your Mac. System statistics, the process list, clipboard history, disk scan results and settings are stored locally, in your user Library. None of it is sent to us or anyone else.
- Clipboard history can ignore any app you choose (password managers, for example) and can be cleared at any time.
- The Accessibility permission is used only for keyboard shortcuts, pasting from clipboard history and cleaning mode. Nekobar never records what you type.
- The only network request the app makes is the update check: it downloads
nekobar.app/appcast.jsonand, when there is a new version, the update itself. These requests carry no personal data. - When you activate a license, the app sends nekobar.app the key, an anonymous device fingerprint (a one-way hash of the Mac’s hardware ID — the ID itself never leaves your Mac) and the Mac’s name, so the key can be limited to the Macs your plan covers. After activation the license is checked offline.
The website and purchases
- The site uses no analytics, no advertising trackers and no cookies. It stores the license keys you bought in your own browser (localStorage) so you can see them again; nothing of that is sent to us.
- When you buy Nekobar Pro we keep your email address, the plan, the invoice number, the license key and the Macs it is activated on — to deliver the key, restore it if you lose it and answer support requests.
- Payments are processed by Trybit (trybit.com). We never see or store your wallet or card details; Trybit handles them under its own privacy policy.
- Messages you send through the support form are stored so we can answer them.
- Our server keeps standard web server logs (IP address, time, page) for up to 30 days, for security.
Sharing
We do not sell or share your data. It goes to third parties only as described above (Trybit for payments) or when the law requires it.
Your rights
You can ask us to show, correct or delete the data we hold about you — write to hello@nekobar.app from the email address you bought with. Deleting your purchase record means we can no longer restore your key.
