Last updated: September 23, 2026

Paste It! is a local-first, open-source clipboard manager for macOS under the MIT License. The Mac app stores clipboard history on your device. This website provides marketing information and download links. There is no account sign-in, subscription, or payment checkout on this website.

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to paste-it.app and the Paste It! macOS application (together, the "Project"). The Project is maintained by Yipeng Zhang.

By downloading the app or using the website, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Project.

1. The Project

Paste It! keeps clipboard history on your Mac. This website hosts marketing pages and download links. Source code is published on GitHub under the MIT License.

Support, bug reports, and feature requests are handled via GitHub Issues — there is no support email.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age required where you live) to use the Project. The app targets macOS; other platforms are not currently supported.

3. License

Paste It! is licensed under the MIT License. Personal and commercial use, modification, and redistribution are permitted, provided the copyright and license notices are retained.

The full license text governs use of the software. Third-party dependencies remain subject to their respective licenses. Prebuilt downloads on GitHub Releases are provided for convenience. You are responsible for verifying the releases you install.

You agree not to:

  • Use the Project to violate any law or third-party rights

4. Local data and your responsibility

Clipboard history and related files remain on your Mac. You are responsible for:

  • Backups and retention of local data

We are not responsible for loss of local clipboard data caused by device failure, uninstallation, or settings you choose in the app.

5. Intellectual property

The Paste It! name, website branding, and related marks remain ours. Rights to the software are governed by its applicable license. These Terms do not grant trademark rights beyond ordinary fair use (for example, referring to the Project by name).

6. Disclaimer

THE PROJECT IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that the Project will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components. The publicly available software distribution is provided without paid support obligations.

7. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE PROJECT.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF THESE TERMS OR THE PROJECT WILL NOT EXCEED USD $50.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those cases, liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

8. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Hong Kong. Before formal proceedings, please try to resolve the matter informally via a GitHub Issue.

9. Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. The revised version will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
