Lightweight app for macOS, Windows, and Linux that automatically masks sensitive information in your clipboard. Privacy-focused. Open source. Always free.
Comprehensive clipboard security without the complexity
Automatically detects and masks emails, phone numbers, credit cards, IP addresses, and SSNs in real-time.
Only masks sensitive data in larger text blocks. Single items copied intentionally remain unchanged.
Strip tracking parameters (utm_*, fbclid, gclid) and unwrap Google/Facebook redirectors automatically.
Add custom regex patterns, disable built-in rules, and configure everything via elegant UI.
Made a mistake? Restore original unmasked content with one click from the system tray.
Beautiful PyQt6 interface with tabbed settings, notifications, and tooltips everywhere.
Simple, transparent, and effective
Clone from GitHub, install dependencies, and launch. ClipGuard sits quietly in your system tray.
Use your clipboard normally. Copy emails, documents, messages - whatever you need.
ClipGuard instantly detects sensitive patterns and replaces them with placeholders like [REDACTED_EMAIL].
Paste your masked content anywhere. Your privacy is protected automatically.
All data is processed locally on your machine. ClipGuard never sends any data over the network. No telemetry, no tracking, no external servers. Your privacy is absolute.
