Privacy Policy for PDF - PDF Tools
Introduction
Welcome to PDF - PDF Tools. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application.
Local File Processing
Your files never leave your device. PDF Tools processes all your documents (PDFs, images, etc.) entirely on your device. We do not:
- Upload your files to any servers
- Store your documents in cloud storage
- Access the content of your files remotely
- Share your documents with any third parties
All PDF operations including merging, splitting, adding watermarks, rotation, and conversions happen locally using your device's processing power, ensuring complete privacy and security of your sensitive documents.
