Privacy

PDF Reader Pro works entirely on your device.

What the app does not do

• It doesn't collect, store, transmit or share personal data.
• It has no analytics, tracking, telemetry or ads.
• It never uploads your documents.

What stays on your device

• Your library, recent files, favorites, bookmarks, highlights, saved signatures and settings are stored only on your device, and are removed when you uninstall the app.
• Passwords you choose to remember for protected PDFs are stored encrypted on your device.

Permissions

Permission	Why
File access (READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, READ_MEDIA_DOCUMENTS, or all-files access on Android 11 and newer)	To find and open the PDFs on your device
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE (Android 9 and older)	To save the results of the PDF tools
INTERNET	Only for checking for updates

Network use

The only network access is the update check. It asks GitHub's public API for the latest release and its notes, and downloads the new APK if you choose to update. No personal data, device identifiers or usage information is sent. You can set the check to Never under Settings > Updates and check by hand instead.

Links you open from the app, such as GitHub or Crowdin, open in your browser.

The full policy is also available in the app under Settings > About > Privacy Policy.
