Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 6, 2026
1) Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how PdfSam split and merge ("the App", "we", "our", "us") handles your information when you use the app.
The app is designed to process your PDF and image files primarily on your device.
2) Information We Process
The app may process the following categories of data to provide features:
Documents and media you select (PDFs, images) for tools like split, merge, compress, convert, watermark, and batch operations.
File metadata (file name, size, modified date, URI references) for the file manager, sorting, recents, and favorites.
Feature-generated content such as signatures, extracted text, and converted output files.
Optional voice/OCR content when you use text-to-speech or OCR-related features.
3) How Data Is Used
Your selected files and metadata are used only to:
Perform requested document operations.
Show file manager listings and recent/favorite states.
Save output files to your device (for example, Downloads/PdfSam split and merge)
Enable optional premium or advanced features you explicitly use.
4) Data Storage and Retention
File operations are performed locally where possible.
Output files are saved to locations you choose or app-designated folders on your device.
App metadata (for example, favorites)may be stored locally on-device.
We do not sell your personal data.
5) Permissions
Depending on Android version and feature usage, the app may request permissions such as storage/media access.
These permissions are used only for app functionality and can be managed in your device settings.
6) Third-Party Services and Libraries
The app may use third-party SDKs/libraries (for example, PDF rendering/processing and optional ML features).
These components may have their own privacy terms. Review their policies when applicable.
7) Data Sharing
We do not share your files with third parties except:
When you explicitly trigger actions like Share.
When required by law.
8) Security
We use reasonable measures to protect locally processed data. However, no method of storage or transmission is completely secure.
9) Children’s Privacy
The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
10) Your Choices
You can:
Decline optional permissions.
Delete app-generated files from device storage.
Uninstall the app to remove local app data (subject to your device behavior and backups).
11) International Use
If you use the app in different jurisdictions, you are responsible for compliance with local laws.
12) Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Updates will be reflected by the “Last updated” date.
