Terms

Last updated: 1 November 2026

1. Who we are

PasteCloak is published by Epixstore SAS, a French simplified joint-stock company registered in Nantes (RCS Nantes 988 600 102, SIRET 988 600 102 00012), whose registered office is at 42 rue du Roi Baco, 44100 Nantes, France. Contact: hello@pastecloak.com. Full company details are on our Legal notice.

2. Buying a license

When you buy a license, Epixstore SAS is the seller. These Terms govern both the purchase and your use of the software. Payment is taken on a secure page run by our payment provider, Stripe.

• Prices: PasteCloak Standard costs €19 and PasteCloak Pro costs €39, as a one-time payment. Prices are in euros and include VAT where it applies. The checkout page shows the VAT for your country before you pay.
• How to order: choose an edition, enter your details on the checkout page and pay. The contract is formed when your payment is confirmed.
• Delivery: your license key is emailed to the address you gave, normally within minutes of payment. If it doesn’t arrive, check your spam folder, then write to hello@pastecloak.com. Delayed payment methods get their key once the payment clears.
• Invoices: write to hello@pastecloak.com if you need one.

3. Free trial

You can use every PasteCloak feature free for 14 days from first launch, without an account or payment details. When the trial ends, Safe Paste pauses until you enter a license key. Your normal paste keeps working.

4. Your license

• Standard and Pro are one-time purchases. They give the person named in the license key a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use PasteCloak, in the edition purchased, on the Macs they personally use.
• Business licenses are sold per user, for a yearly term, under a separate order or quote that states the number of seats.
• One-time licenses include all PasteCloak 1.x updates we release. We are not obliged to release updates, and later major versions may be sold separately.
• License keys are checked offline on your Mac. We cannot remotely disable PasteCloak.

5. What PasteCloak does, and its limits

PasteCloak looks for patterns that resemble secrets (API keys, tokens, passwords, connection strings, private keys and your own custom rules) in the text you choose to paste with its shortcut, and shows you a preview with those parts replaced. Pattern detection can miss secrets written in unusual formats and can flag text that is not secret. PasteCloak reduces the risk of accidental disclosure; it does not guarantee that no secret is ever pasted, and it does not replace rotating exposed credentials, access control or your organisation’s security policies. You decide what to paste, and you remain responsible for checking it.

6. What you may not do

• Share, publish or resell your license key, or let others use it.
• Remove or work around the license and trial checks.
• Decompile or reverse engineer PasteCloak, except where the law allows it (including Article L122-6-1 of the French Intellectual Property Code).

PasteCloak, its name, logo and code remain the property of Epixstore SAS.

7. Privacy

PasteCloak processes your clipboard on your Mac only and keeps no clipboard history. See our Privacy policy.

8. Refunds and your right of withdrawal

You can get a full refund within 30 days of purchase, for any reason. See our Refund policy.

If you are a consumer in the European Union, you also have a legal right to withdraw from the purchase within 14 days, without giving a reason. We do not ask you to give up this right at checkout, so you keep it even after you have received and used your license key. The Refund policy explains how to use it and includes a model form.

9. Liability

If you are a consumer, nothing in these Terms limits the rights the law gives you, including the legal guarantee of conformity for digital content (Articles L224-25-12 et seq. of the French Consumer Code) and the mandatory protections of your country of residence. If you buy for a business, and to the extent the law allows, our total liability is limited to the amount paid for the license concerned, and we are not liable for indirect losses such as loss of data, business or profit.

10. Changes

We may update these Terms, for example when we add features or editions. The version that applies to you is the one in force on the day you bought your license, unless you accept a newer version.

11. Law and disputes

These Terms are governed by French law. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory rules of the country where you live, and you may bring a claim before the courts of that country. Please write to hello@pastecloak.com first; most problems are solved quickly that way.

If you are a consumer and we cannot settle a dispute, you can go to our consumer mediator free of charge: CM2C, 49 rue de Ponthieu, 75008 Paris, France, cm2c.net.
