PDFMate - View PDF ("we," "our," or "us") provides a comprehensive set of PDF processing tools. Our application allows you to scan, organize, share, or delete PDF files directly. To provide these core functionalities, the app requires access to your device's file management systems. We prioritize your privacy: all PDF processing is performed locally on your device.
We process your personal data based on the following legal grounds:
● Contractual Necessity: To provide the PDF viewing and management services you request.
● Legitimate Interests: To improve app performance and ensure security.
● Consent: Where you have given explicit permission (e.g., for analytics or specific permissions).
While the core PDF content stays on your device, we may collect minimal data to ensure app stability:
● Device Information: Model, OS version, and unique device identifiers.
● Usage Data: Interaction with app features (via third-party tools).
We work with the following third-party service providers for attribution, analytics, and infrastructure:
● Google Firebase: Used for crash reporting (Crashlytics) and cloud messaging.
● Data Analytics Platforms: To understand user behavior and optimize the UI.
● Attribution Platforms: To measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. These third parties may collect information sent by your device as part of a web request or app interaction.
You have the following rights regarding your data:
● Right to Access: You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
● Right to Rectification: You can request the correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
● Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): You may request the deletion of your personal data collected by our analytics tools.
● Right to Know: You have the right to know if your data is being shared or sold.
● Sharing: We only share data with the third-party providers listed above to facilitate app functions.
● Sale: We do not sell your personal data. You have the right to know that no personal information is ever exchanged for monetary consideration.
● Opt-Out: You can opt-out of data collection by adjusting the "Usage & Diagnostics" settings in the app or your device system settings.
We retain collected personal data (such as crash logs or analytics) only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, typically no longer than 90 days, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
We have appointed a Data Protection Officer to oversee our privacy practices.
