Privacy and data

No account, no telemetry or analytics, no crash reporting, no ads.

What leaves your PC
Two things, and nothing else.Your licence. PerchDeck checks it with Dodo Payments once when you activate, then about every 15 minutes while you are online. It sends your licence key, your PC's name (for example “LAPTOP-AB12”) and the id Dodo gives this PC's activation. No clipboard content, no files, no usage data.The AI model (optional). It downloads from Hugging Face (huggingface.co) when you press Download. After that, AI chat talks to a helper on your own PC (127.0.0.1) that only PerchDeck can use.The app's own pages are not allowed to reach the internet.
Where your data lives
On your PC, in PerchDeck's data folder on your PC:
perchdeck.db

clips\
images from the clipboard history
voice\
voice recordings
ai\models\
the AI model (about 1.82 GB), only if you download it
Other facts
  • Your licence key is stored encrypted with Windows' own data protection. It can only be read by the same Windows user on the same PC, so copying PerchDeck's database to another PC does not unlock anything.
  • Without an internet connection, your licence keeps working for up to 7 days after the last time it was confirmed. After that, PerchDeck asks for a connection.
  • Deleted clips, chats and tasks are overwritten with zeros in the database, so deleted means gone.
  • The Shelf never copies, moves or deletes your original files.
  • Camera preview and voice recordings stay on your PC.
  • Technical logs (for example program names and error text) are written to the app's log folder. They do not contain what you copied, wrote or said.
  • The clipboard history never records copies from KeePass, KeePassXC, Bitwarden, 1Password, LastPass, Dashlane, NordPass, Enpass, RoboForm or Proton Pass, nor copies that apps mark private with Windows' own opt-out.
