Quicksnip

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 1 August 2026

Quicksnip does not collect, transmit, sell or share any personal information. There is no account, no server that stores your data, and no analytics.

Quicksnip is a browser extension that replaces a short trigger you type with a longer piece of text you saved earlier.

What Quicksnip stores, and where

Quicksnip saves the snippets you create — their triggers, their text, and your settings — using your browser's own chrome.storage.local API. That data is held on your computer, inside your browser profile. It is never uploaded.

Uninstalling the extension deletes it. You can also export it to a file, or delete individual snippets, at any time from the extension's options page.

What Quicksnip reads on web pages

To replace a trigger with its snippet, Quicksnip has to see what you are typing in the text field you are focused on. This check happens entirely inside your browser, character by character, and nothing about it is recorded, stored or sent anywhere.

Quicksnip never reads password fields. It ignores them by design.

You can stop Quicksnip from running on specific sites using the “Never run on these sites” setting, or switch it off entirely.

The one network request

If — and only if — you buy Quicksnip Pro and paste your license key into the options page, the extension sends that key to Gumroad (https://api.gumroad.com) to confirm the purchase is valid. Nothing else is sent with it: no snippets, no browsing data, no identifiers.

Gumroad is our payment processor. Their handling of your purchase is covered by their own policy at gumroad.com/privacy.

If you never activate Pro, Quicksnip makes no network requests at all.

Permissions, and why each one exists

Quicksnip requests no broad host permissions beyond what its content script needs to do that job.

Children

Quicksnip is a general productivity tool and is not directed at children.

Changes
