The policy, in full

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026

The short version

PocketPDF asks for no Android permissions at all. Your documents are processed on your device and are never uploaded, because the app has no way to upload them.

What we collect

Nothing. We do not collect personal information, we do not operate a server that receives your data, and we have no account system. The app declares no Android permissions at all, which you can check in the permission list on the store listing.

What stays on your device

Documents you open are read through the system file picker and processed on the device. Results are written to a location you choose, and the app's own private storage holds only its settings and a history of the operations you ran. Your original documents are never modified.

Permissions, and why each is needed

PocketPDF requests only the permissions it genuinely uses. Each is requested at the moment the relevant feature is used, and declining never blocks the rest of the app.

Permission Why
None. This app requests no Android permissions at all.

If a future version adds a permission, this policy and the app's AGENTS.md are updated in the same change, with the reason recorded.

Data you export

There is nothing to export: every operation writes an ordinary PDF that you choose where to save, and once it is written its handling is entirely up to you.

Deleting your data

Delete everything from within the app, or uninstall it. Because PocketPDF has no account and no server copy, there is nothing held elsewhere and no deletion request to make.

Children

PocketPDF is not directed at children and collects no data from anyone.

Your rights

Because no data is collected, there is nothing for us to disclose, correct or erase on your behalf. You have full access to, and full control over, everything the app holds.

Changes to this policy

If a change ever affects what the app does with data, this page is updated in the same release as the change, and the store listing is updated to match.
