Thank you for using our PDF Converter application (“App”). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your information.
This Privacy Policy explains what information may be processed when you use the App, how it is used, where it is processed, how long it is retained, and your choices regarding your information.
By using the App, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Information We Process
1.1 User-Provided Content
The App allows you to create, convert, save, manage, share, and print PDF documents and may provide an Image to Excel feature.
Depending on the features you use, the App may process:
Text entered into the App
Document titles and file names
Images selected for Image to Excel processing
Images selected for document creation or conversion
Text extracted from images
PDF documents created through the App
Excel files generated through the Image to Excel feature
Content selected for sharing, exporting, or printing
Formatting and conversion settings
We process this information only as necessary to provide the features requested by you.
2. Image to Excel Processing
The App provides an Image to Excel feature that allows you to extract text and data from images and convert the extracted information into an Excel spreadsheet.
When you use the Image to Excel feature, the selected image is transmitted securely to our server infrastructure for processing. Image processing and data extraction are performed on our own server hosted by Hostinger.
Your submitted image is processed by our server-side Image to Excel API and is not sent to third-party cloud OCR providers such as Google Cloud OCR or Amazon AWS OCR for the purpose of processing your image.
2.1 Image to Excel Technologies
Our Image to Excel processing system is built using Python and FastAPI and may use different technologies depending on the image and processing requirements.
The server-side system may use the following technologies and libraries:
FastAPI
Uvicorn
python-multipart
PaddlePaddle
PaddleOCR
PaddleX
ONNX Runtime
OpenCV
NumPy
Pillow
OpenPyXL
PaddleOCR may be used to identify and extract text and document information from submitted images.
PaddlePaddle may be used as the underlying machine learning framework supporting applicable OCR processing.
PaddleX may be used as part of the document and OCR processing pipeline where required.
ONNX Runtime may be used to execute compatible machine learning models required for image or document processing.
OpenCV may be used for image preprocessing and image analysis before OCR processing. OpenCV is an image-processing library and is not itself an OCR model.
NumPy may be used for numerical and image-data processing as part of the conversion pipeline.
Pillow may be used for image loading, image processing, and image format handling.
OpenPyXL may be used to create and generate Excel (.xlsx) files from extracted image data.
FastAPI and Uvicorn are used to operate the server-side API that receives submitted images, performs processing, and returns the resulting Excel file or extracted information to the App.
3. Image to Excel Data Processing
When you submit an image to the Image to Excel feature:
The image is transmitted securely to our server.
The server receives the uploaded image through the Image to Excel API.
Image preprocessing may be performed using technologies such as OpenCV, NumPy, and Pillow.
OCR and document processing may be performed using PaddleOCR, PaddlePaddle, PaddleX, and compatible processing technologies.
Extracted text and data may be structured into spreadsheet data.
An Excel (.xlsx) file may be generated using OpenPyXL.
The resulting Excel file or extracted information is returned to the App.
The uploaded image is deleted after processing is completed.
We do not use submitted images or extracted data for advertising, marketing, profiling, or selling user content.
4. Temporary Storage and Data Retention
We retain certain Image to Excel-related information temporarily only as necessary to complete processing and provide the requested functionality.
Images uploaded for Image to Excel processing are deleted from our server after the conversion or processing is completed.
We also operate an automated fallback cleanup process that removes files that may remain because of an unexpected application error or interrupted processing.
The fallback cleanup process runs within approximately 60 minutes.
Extracted text or structured spreadsheet data may be temporarily stored during processing to complete the Image to Excel conversion.
Temporary processing data is automatically removed when it is no longer required for the processing operation.
When the Image to Excel feature generates an Excel (.xlsx) file, the generated file may be temporarily stored on our server.
Generated Excel files are automatically deleted after approximately 24 hours.
We do not intend to retain uploaded images, extracted data, or generated Excel files permanently on our servers.
5. Server Hosting and International Data Processing
Our Image to Excel processing infrastructure is hosted by Hostinger.
The relevant server infrastructure for the Image to Excel service is located in:
Düsseldorf, Germany
Accordingly, images submitted for Image to Excel processing and temporary processing information may be processed and temporarily stored on servers located in Germany.
Because Germany is within the European Union, processing may be subject to applicable European data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) where applicable.
Third-party hosting providers may process limited technical information necessary to provide hosting and infrastructure services in accordance with their applicable terms and privacy practices.
6. Third-Party OCR and Processing Services
We do not send your submitted images or Image to Excel content to third-party cloud OCR services for processing.
Image processing, OCR, data extraction, and Excel generation are performed on our own server infrastructure using the technologies described in this Privacy Policy.
Our processing system may download or update publicly available software, libraries, frameworks, or model files from third-party sources during server setup or maintenance. Such downloads contain software or model files and are not uploads of your personal images, documents, or extracted data.
7. Device and Technical Information
The App or third-party services integrated into the App may process certain technical information necessary to operate, maintain, secure, and improve the App.
Depending on the features and services enabled in the App, this information may include:
Device model
Operating system and version
App version
Language and regional settings
IP address
Network information
Device or advertising identifiers
App interaction information

The App does not use your submitted images, extracted data, or user-created document content for advertising purposes.
If advertising services are integrated into the App, those services may collect and process certain technical or advertising-related information in accordance with their own privacy policies and applicable laws.
Such information may include, depending on the advertising configuration:
Advertising identifiers
Device information
IP address or approximate location
Advertising interaction information
App usage information
Information required to deliver and measure advertisements
Advertising providers may provide personalized or non-personalized advertisements depending on applicable settings, permissions, and legal requirements.
Your submitted images, extracted data, generated Excel files, and user-created documents are not provided to advertising providers for the purpose of advertising.
9. App Tracking Transparency (iOS)
If the App uses advertising-related tracking on iOS, it may request permission through Apple's App Tracking Transparency (ATT) framework.
You may allow or deny tracking through the iOS system prompt.
If tracking permission is denied, the App's core functionality may continue to operate, although advertising may be less personalized where applicable.
You may change your tracking preference later through your iOS privacy settings.
The App may use third-party services for purposes such as hosting, advertising, diagnostics, analytics, payments, or other supporting functionality, depending on the features enabled in the App.
For Image to Excel processing, the App uses its own server infrastructure hosted by Hostinger rather than sending user images to an external cloud OCR provider.
Third-party services, if integrated into the App, may independently process technical information according to their own privacy policies and terms.
