3. On-Device Processing

PDF Maker processes the photos, images, and documents you choose primarily on your device. In normal use, your files are stored locally in the app’s Documents or temporary storage and are not uploaded to our servers unless you intentionally share them, export them, or use a feature that sends them to a third-party service.

4. Third-Party Services

We use trusted third-party services that may process some information on our behalf.

Google Firebase

We use Firebase services such as Firebase Analytics and Firebase Remote Config. These services may collect information such as device identifiers, app usage, approximate location, and diagnostic data.

Google AdMob

We use Google AdMob to display ads. AdMob may collect and use device identifiers, IP address, ad interaction data, and other information to serve and measure ads, including personalized or non-personalized ads depending on your settings and applicable law.

RevenueCat

We use RevenueCat to manage subscriptions, purchases, and restore access. RevenueCat may process transaction and entitlement-related data such as purchase receipts, subscription status, and related technical information.

Apple Services

We may use Apple framework services and system features such as the App Store, share sheet, Photos access, and Files access when you choose to use them.

5. Advertising

The app contains advertising, including app open ads, interstitial ads, and native ads.

Advertising partners may collect and use information to:

  • Deliver ads
  • Measure ad performance
  • Prevent fraud and abuse
  • Show personalized or non-personalized ads, depending on consent and privacy settings

You may be shown consent prompts or privacy choices in supported regions where required by law.

6. Sharing of Information

We may share information with:

  • Service providers who help us run the app
  • Google and its advertising/analytics services
  • RevenueCat for subscription management
  • Apple services when you use system-level features
  • Legal authorities if required by law or to protect rights, safety, or security

We do not intentionally share your personal files with unrelated third parties except when you choose to export, share, or save them through the app’s functions.

7. Data Retention

We keep information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

  • Files you create or import are generally stored locally on your device unless you delete them or remove the app
  • Analytics, ad, and subscription data may be retained by Firebase, Google, and RevenueCat according to their own retention practices
  • If you delete the app, locally stored files may be removed from the device depending on your device and backup settings

8. Your Choices

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

  • Access your personal information
  • Correct inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of your information
  • Opt out of certain advertising personalization
  • Restrict or object to certain processing
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

You can also manage permissions through your device settings, such as Photos, Files, notifications, and tracking permissions.

PDF Maker is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to remove it.

10. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to help protect the information processed through the app. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
