TextScoop Privacy Policy
Last updated: December 5, 2025

TextScoop is designed to process text locally on your device. This policy explains how TextScoop uses screen recording and how it handles the content it accesses.

1. Screen Recording

When you use TextScoop’s screen-capture features, the app:
  • Uses the system Screen Recording permission to capture screenshots of only the screen areas you manually select.
  • Uses OCR (optical character recognition) on those screenshots to extract text, tables, QR codes, barcodes, or links.

TextScoop does not perform continuous or background screen recording. Screen access is used only when you explicitly start a capture.

TextScoop does not send these screenshots or the extracted text to its own servers, and it does not use third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs.

2. Use of Captured Content

The screenshots and extracted content are used only to perform the actions you choose, such as:
  • Copying text or tables to the clipboard
  • Working with QR codes or barcodes
  • Looking up, translating, reading aloud, summarizing, or creating key points from the text
  • Sending the text or links to other apps or services when you select actions like Search the Web, Open Link, Share, or Services

In these cases, TextScoop passes only the necessary text or links to the destination app or service (for example, your web browser, search engine, mail app, or a macOS “Services” item). Those apps and services handle the data under their own privacy policies.

TextScoop does not share your screenshots or text with third parties for its own purposes and does not transmit them anywhere without you choosing an action that sends them.

3. Storage and Retention

TextScoop uses captured content only for the duration of the action you requested and then discards it. TextScoop does not keep copies of your screenshots or extracted text for its own use.

If you choose an action that sends content to another app or service (such as Search the Web, Open Link, Share, or Services), any further storage is handled by that destination app or service under its own privacy policy.
