What the app stores on your Mac

ShotPeg stores the media you collect or import, its library index, item metadata, notes and checklists, app settings, and text recognized in images. Text recognition uses Apple Vision on your Mac. ShotPeg does not operate a cloud library or require a developer account. It does not send these records to the developer or use them for advertising, tracking or in-app analytics.

A copied file may retain metadata from the source. Use care when exporting or sharing material that contains personal, confidential or identifying information.

Permissions and optional collection

If you choose a folder in Settings → Collection, ShotPeg asks macOS for access and stores an app-scoped bookmark to reconnect after launch. It uses that access to look for new screenshots saved to that folder. It keeps originals in place by default. An optional setting can move recognized originals to the macOS Trash after the app has copied them successfully.

Clipboard collection is optional and off by default. When enabled, ShotPeg can import new compatible images from your clipboard. It skips items marked as concealed or temporary. You can turn collection off in Settings.

The optional capture features may need access under macOS Screen & System Audio Recording settings, depending on the macOS version. You can revoke the applicable access in System Settings → Privacy & Security. Watching a folder for screenshots saved by macOS uses folder access.

Exports, third parties and backups

When you copy, drag, export or share a file, the destination you choose can receive that file and handle it under its own terms. This also applies if you independently choose an iCloud Drive folder or another synced destination. Device backups may retain copies under your backup settings. Apple separately handles the App Store account, checkout, purchase history, receipts and refund processing. See Apple’s Privacy Policy.

Retention, deletion and controls

Use Library to remove items from the rope or delete app copies. Removing a card from the rope keeps the library copy. Items moved to Recently Deleted can be restored before permanent removal. ShotPeg is designed to purge items older than 30 days from Recently Deleted during library maintenance. You can also delete items permanently sooner. Local storage preferences can affect how long active files are retained.

Deleting a library copy does not remove separate originals, exports, backups or copies shared elsewhere. Disconnect the folder in Settings → Collection to clear ShotPeg’s stored folder access. Turning off clipboard collection or disconnecting a folder does not erase existing library files. The library lock limits access through the interface. It does not encrypt your files.
