This Privacy Policy explains what information the PDF Scanner app collects, why it is collected, and who it is shared with. Please read it before using the app.
Your documents stay on your device:
Documents, scans, photos, signatures and notes you create in the app are stored only on your device. Text recognition (OCR) runs on your device. We do not upload your documents, except when you choose Excel export, as described below.
Information collected automatically:
- Crash reports and diagnostics (Firebase Crashlytics): when the app crashes or has an error, we receive technical details such as device model, operating system version, app version and the error. We use this only to find and fix problems.
- Usage analytics (Google Analytics for Firebase): which screens are opened, session length, app version, device type and approximate location (country or region, derived from IP address). This helps us understand how the app is used and improve it.
- App identifiers: a Firebase installation ID and, if you allow notifications, a push notification token (Firebase Cloud Messaging), used to deliver notifications about updates and new features.
- Remote configuration (Firebase Remote Config): the app downloads settings from our server using the Firebase installation ID.
Advertising:
The free version of the app shows ads provided by Google AdMob. AdMob and its advertising partners may collect and use your device’s advertising ID, approximate location (from IP address), app interactions and diagnostic data to show ads, measure them and prevent fraud. Where required by law (for example in the EEA, UK and Switzerland), the app asks for your consent before personalized ads are shown, and you can change your choice at any time in the app’s settings. You can also reset or limit the advertising ID in your device settings. Premium users do not see ads.
Excel export:
Only when you choose to export a document to Excel, the images of the selected pages are sent over an encrypted connection to our processing server (hosted by Supabase, using Microsoft Azure Document Intelligence) to recognize tables. The images are processed only to create your file and are not kept afterwards.
Purchases:
Subscriptions and purchases are processed by Google Play or the Apple App Store. We do not receive or store your payment details.
Sharing of information:
We do not sell your personal data. Data is shared only with the service providers named above (Google Firebase, Google AdMob and its partners, Supabase, Microsoft Azure), which process it for the purposes described. Their privacy policies: Google, Firebase, Supabase, Microsoft.
Information security and retention:
All data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Crash reports are kept for up to 90 days, analytics data for up to 14 months, and Excel export images are deleted right after processing.
Children:
The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13.
Your rights:
You can turn off notifications in your device settings, change your ad consent in the app, and stop all collection by uninstalling the app. To ask about, access or delete data related to your use of the app, contact us at the address below.
