Creating a share uploads this content to private temporary storage. It expires after 24 hours or three confirmed retrievals and can be deleted sooner.

About the Online Clipboard

ToolsOnDuty Online Clipboard transfers text, images and supported files between your devices using a six-digit passcode, private link or QR code.

Shared content is held temporarily in non-public cloud storage so another device can retrieve it. Files are served only through the protected application endpoint and do not receive a public storage URL.

Each share expires after 24 hours or three confirmed retrievals, whichever happens first. The creator also receives a private Delete Now capability for immediate removal.

Frequently asked questions

Where is shared content stored?
Content is held temporarily in non-public cloud storage. We retain only the content and operational information needed to deliver the share, enforce its expiry and track its remaining retrievals.
How long does a share remain available?
A share expires after 24 hours or three confirmed retrievals, whichever happens first. The creator can also remove it immediately with Delete Now.
What counts as a retrieval?
Text counts after it is successfully received by the browser. A file counts only after its complete response is received and the browser acknowledges the receipt. Failed or interrupted downloads are not acknowledged.
Can anyone retrieve my content?
Anyone who knows the six-digit code or possesses the private link can retrieve it. Treat both as temporary secrets and share them only with the intended recipient.
Which files are supported?
Common images, PDF, Office documents, CSV, Markdown and plain text are supported up to 10 MB. Executables, scripts, disk images and archives are blocked.
Why are only six-digit codes offered?
Four-digit codes are too easy to guess. Six-digit lookups are also protected by a hashed-IP attempt limit.
Do you store raw IP addresses?
The service converts connecting IP addresses into a protected one-way hash for daily sharing and access limits. Raw IP addresses are not stored in clipboard records.
What happens when Delete Now is used?
The private creator token authorizes immediate removal of the shared content and its operational record. ToolsOnDuty cannot recover the share afterward.
