Privacy Policy for PDF Reader & Scanner Offline
Effective / Last Updated Date: [30/5/2026]
App Name: PDF Reader & Scanner Offline
Developer Name: HypeHUB
We respect your privacy and are committed to explaining how PDF Reader & Scanner Offline (“the App”) handles data.
PDF Reader & Scanner Offline is designed as a practical, fast, privacy-focused PDF reader and document scanner app. The App allows users to read PDF files, scan documents, convert images to PDF, create ID card PDFs, scan and generate QR codes, and use basic PDF tools.
Summary:
The App does not require sign-in or account creation. PDF files, scanned documents, selected images, generated PDFs, and QR content are processed locally on your device. We do not upload your files or documents to our own servers.
1. Data We Collect and Use
We do not require you to create an account, enter an email address, or provide personally identifying information to use the App.
The App may store some data locally on your device to make its features work, such as:
- Recent files
- Favorite files
- References to files created by the App
- QR scan and QR creation history
- App settings such as language and theme
- Output files created by the App, such as PDFs or images
This data remains locally on your device and is not uploaded to our own servers.
2. Files, Documents, and Images
The App allows you to open, read, scan, create, convert, merge, split, compress, rotate, protect, share, and print PDF files.
PDF files, scanned documents, selected images, ID card images, and generated PDF files are processed locally on your device.
We do not read, sell, upload, or store the contents of your documents on our own servers.
If you choose to share a file, image, or QR content using the Android share sheet, that content will be shared with the app or service that you select.
3. Permissions Used by the App
Camera:
The App may request camera permission only when you use features that require the camera, such as document scanning or QR/barcode scanning. The App does not use the camera in the background.
Files and Photos:
The App uses official Android tools such as Android File Picker, Storage Access Framework, and Photo Picker to allow you to select PDF files or images. The App accesses only the files or images that you choose.
The App does not use broad storage access permission such as MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE.
Internet:
The App may use internet access to load ads, operate advertising services, use Google Play services, or support certain service components when available. Internet access is not used to upload your files to our own servers.
4. Third-Party Services

5. Advertising and Advertising ID
The App displays advertisements through third-party advertising networks. These networks may include Google AdMob, Unity Ads, AppLovin, ironSource / LevelPlay, Meta Audience Network, and other trusted advertising networks, depending on the App’s available configuration.
These advertising networks or their SDKs may use technical or advertising-related data to provide ads, measure performance, prevent fraud, improve services, personalize ads or show non-personalized ads, and comply with legal requirements.
This data may include Android Advertising ID, device information, IP address, ad interaction data, crash data, performance data, and approximate location depending on device settings and service configuration.
The App may use different types of ads, such as:
- Banner ads
- Interstitial ads
- App Open ads
- Native ads
- Rewarded ads
- Rewarded interstitial ads
- Other ad formats supported by the advertising networks used, provided they comply with Google Play policies and do not disrupt the user experience
We aim to show ads in a non-intrusive way. Ads are not intended to appear while you are actively reading PDF files, using the camera, reviewing scanned documents, or performing sensitive document tasks inside the App.
You may control some advertising settings through your device settings or Google advertising settings, depending on your Android version and available services.
6. QR Codes and Barcodes
The App can scan and generate QR codes and some barcode types.
QR scan results or QR codes you create may be saved locally in the App’s history if you use this feature.
We do not upload QR or barcode content to our own servers.
7. Data Security
Because your files and documents are processed locally on your device, a significant part of protecting those files depends on the security of your device.
We recommend using Android security features such as screen lock, fingerprint, password, or other device protection methods.
Although we use appropriate practices for handling data locally, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure.
8. Data Retention and Deletion
Most App data is stored locally on your device.
You can delete files created by the App from within the App if a delete option is available, through your device file manager, or through Android system settings.
You can also clear App data or uninstall the App through Android system settings.
We do not maintain user accounts or a cloud storage system for user files on our own servers.
9. Children’s Privacy
The App is intended for general productivity use and is not specifically directed to children under the age of 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information through the App, please contact us so we can review the issue.
10. International Users
The App may be used in different countries and supports multiple languages.
Third-party services such as Google, Unity, AppLovin, ironSource, Meta, and other advertising networks may process data according to their own global privacy practices and applicable legal requirements.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time when App features, services used, advertising networks, or legal requirements change.
