Privacy Policy
How PDF Master Pro collects, uses, and protects your data.
1. Information We Process
- Documents & images you open. Processed locally in your device's browser (scanning, OCR, merge, split, conversion, signing). Stored only in on-device storage (IndexedDB). We never upload your files to our servers.
- Account information (optional). If you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email, and avatar. We never receive your password.
- AI Assistant content (optional). When you ask the AI a question, the selected page text and your prompt travel over HTTPS to our AI provider, used only to generate the reply. Not used for training, not retained beyond the response.
- Diagnostic data. Anonymous crash and error events to keep the App stable. No file contents are ever included.
- Device permissions. Camera (for scanning) and File/Storage access are used only when you grant them and only on your device.
2. How We Use Information
- To provide PDF tools — merge, split, OCR, scan, compress, edit, sign, watermark, fill forms.
- To save your documents to your device library.
- To answer AI Assistant questions you initiate.
- To maintain security, prevent abuse, and improve reliability.
3. Storage & Retention
Your files remain on your device unless you explicitly upload them to a connected service. You may delete any file from the Files tab at any time — deletion is immediate and irreversible. Account data is retained until you request deletion via the contact below.
5. Permissions We Request
- Camera — to capture document scans. Revocable any time in device settings.
- Storage / Files — to open and save PDFs you choose.
- Notifications (optional) — to alert you when long operations finish.
7. Children's Privacy
The App is not directed to children under 13 (or your jurisdiction's equivalent minimum). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has shared data with us, contact us and we will delete it.
8. Your Rights under DPDP Act 2023
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Correct or update inaccurate data.
- Request deletion ("right to erasure").
- Withdraw consent at any time.
- File a grievance with us or the Data Protection Board of India.
9. Security
We use industry-standard safeguards: HTTPS in transit, encrypted secrets on the server, and on-device storage that other apps cannot read. No method of internet transmission is 100% secure, but we work hard to protect your data.
10. Changes to This Policy
We update this Privacy Policy whenever the App's features, data flow, or permissions change. Each new release on Google Play or the web also updates this page and revises the effective date above. Please review it periodically.
11. Grievance Officer & Contact
In compliance with Rule 5(9) of the Information Technology (Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures and Sensitive Personal Data or Information) Rules 2011, and Sections 8 & 13 of the DPDP Act 2023. Grievances are acknowledged within 24 hours and resolved within 15 days.
