PDF files selected or opened by the user are processed primarily on the user's device for providing the App's functionality.

2. PDF Files and Documents

The App allows users to select, open, read, save, rename, and delete PDF files.

The App may require access to files or documents on your device to provide these features.

We do not intentionally upload, sell, or share the contents of your PDF files with third parties.

Your PDF files remain under your control on your device unless you choose to share or move them using another application or service.

Depending on your Android version and the implementation of the App, the App may request access to files or documents selected by you.

These permissions are used only to provide features such as:

  • Reading PDF files

  • Saving PDF files

  • Renaming PDF files

  • Deleting PDF files

You can manage application permissions through your device settings.

Depending on your location, applicable privacy laws, and your consent choices, AdMob may show personalized or non-personalized advertisements.

Where required by law, the App may request your consent before using certain information for personalized advertising.

You may also manage advertising preferences through your Android device settings.

6. Third-Party Services

The App may use third-party services to provide advertising or other technical functionality.

These services may process information according to their own privacy policies.

The primary third-party advertising service used by the App is:

  • Google AdMob

Additional third-party services may be introduced in future versions of the App. If such services materially affect the information collected or processed, this Privacy Policy may be updated accordingly.

7. Data Sharing

We do not sell or rent users' personal information.

We do not intentionally share the contents of your PDF documents with advertisers or third parties.

Information may be processed by third-party service providers, such as Google AdMob, for advertising and related purposes.

We may also disclose information if required by applicable law, legal process, or a valid governmental request.

8. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect information handled by the App.

However, no electronic storage system or method of transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Users are responsible for maintaining the security of their device and files.

9. Data Retention and Deletion

The App does not require a user account and does not maintain a personal account database.

PDF files stored on your device remain subject to your device's storage system.

When you use the App's delete feature to delete a PDF, the file may be removed from the applicable location on your device, subject to your operating system's file-management behavior.

Information processed by third-party services such as Google may be retained according to their respective policies and legal requirements.

10. Children's Privacy

The App is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the applicable age of consent.

If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can take appropriate action.

11. Offline Functionality

Core PDF reading and file-management features may operate locally on your device.

However, advertisements and certain third-party services may require an internet connection.

12. User Responsibility

Users are responsible for the PDF files and documents they open, store, rename, or delete using the App.

We recommend that users maintain appropriate backups of important documents.

We are not responsible for accidental deletion, corruption, loss, or damage to files resulting from device failure, operating-system behavior, user actions, or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

13. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.

Any changes will be reflected by updating the “Effective Date” at the beginning of this Privacy Policy.
