Use the tool for temporary handoffs

The service is best suited to short-lived material such as a public URL, a non-confidential note, an image intended for sharing, or a document that does not contain private information. It is not a replacement for an authenticated cloud drive, encrypted messenger, password manager, or long-term document store.

A matching room key confirms that two browsers reached the same room. It does not identify the people using that room or guarantee that no other device can access it. Review the privacy guide before using CopyPaster on an office, school, hotel, airport, café, mobile carrier, or VPN connection.
