Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how PixaPDF : Image to PDF & Scanner (“the App”), developed by Onewanta Developer (“we,” “us,” or “our”), accesses, processes, stores, and protects information when you use the App.

The App provides tools for converting images to PDF, converting PDF pages to images, scanning documents, importing files, organizing files, viewing PDF documents, and sharing processed files.

By using the App, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Access

The App may access the following information only when required for a feature you choose to use:

Images and Photos

The App may access images you select from your device to:

• Convert images into PDF documents.
• Edit, reorder, rotate, crop, or apply filters to images.
• Create scanned documents.
• Display selected images inside the App.

The App does not automatically access your entire photo library. Access occurs only after you select an image or grant the required permission.

PDF Documents and Other Files

The App may access PDF documents and supported files that you select to:

• Open and display PDF documents.
• Convert PDF pages into images.
• Combine, organize, rename, or manage documents.
• Import documents into the App.
• Share or save processed files.

Camera

If the document-scanning feature is used, the App may request access to your device’s camera. Camera access is used only to capture images of documents. The App does not record video or use the camera in the background.

Device Storage

The App may use device storage to:

• Save generated PDF documents.
• Save images extracted from PDF documents.
• Store scanned documents.
• Import and organize files.
• Open or share processed files.
• Store temporary files required during processing.

The App accesses only the files you select, create, or save through its features, subject to the permissions and storage controls provided by your operating system.

File Metadata

The App may process basic file information, including:

• File name.
• File type or extension.
• File size.
• File location.
• Creation or modification date.

This information is used to display, organize, sort, search, and manage files inside the App.

2. How Information Is Used

Information accessed by the App is used solely to provide and improve its core functionality, including:

• Converting images into PDF documents.
• Converting PDF pages into images.
• Scanning and enhancing documents.
• Opening and displaying PDF files.
• Renaming, sorting, searching, and organizing files.
• Saving processed results to your selected storage location.
• Sharing files through applications installed on your device.
• Maintaining application settings and preferences.
• Diagnosing technical errors and improving reliability, where applicable.

We do not use the contents of your images or documents for advertising, profiling, or behavioral tracking.

3. Local Processing

Most file processing is performed locally on your device. Unless expressly stated otherwise:

• Your images and documents are not uploaded to servers operated by us.
• We cannot access the contents of files stored only on your device.
• Converted files remain on your device or in a location you select.
• Temporary processing files may be created and removed during conversion.
• Removing the App may delete files stored in the App’s private storage.
• Files saved in shared or public device storage may remain after the App is uninstalled and must be deleted manually.

4. Information We Do Not Collect

If the App does not provide accounts, cloud synchronization, advertising, or analytics, we do not intentionally collect:

• Your name.
• Your email address.
• Your telephone number.
• Your home address.
• Your contacts.
• Your precise location.
• Your financial or payment information.
• Your passwords.
• The contents of your documents or images.
• Advertising identifiers.
• Biometric or health information.

The App does not sell personal information.

5. Permissions

The App may request permissions according to the feature being used. These may include:

• Camera: to scan or photograph documents.
• Photos or media: to select images for conversion.
• Storage or file access: to import, open, and save documents on supported Android versions.
• Notifications: to display processing or completion notifications, where applicable.

Permissions are requested only when needed. You can deny or revoke permissions through your device settings. Some features may not function correctly if the required permission is denied.

6. Photo and File Picker

Where supported, the App uses the system photo picker or file picker. These tools allow you to select specific images or documents without giving the App unrestricted access to all files on your device.

The operating system or file-provider application may process your selection according to its own privacy practices.

7. Sharing and Opening Files

When you choose to open or share a file, the App may send the selected file to another application through the sharing or file-opening functions provided by your operating system.

The receiving application may process that file according to its own privacy policy. We are not responsible for how another application handles a file after you intentionally share or open it with that application.

8. Third-Party Services and Libraries

The App may use third-party software libraries or operating-system services to provide functions such as:

• Selecting images and documents.
• Scanning documents.
• Creating and displaying PDF files.
• Opening files.
• Sharing files.
• Saving files.
• Detecting text through OCR.
• Reporting crashes or measuring application performance, if enabled.

Third-party components may process limited technical information according to their respective privacy policies. We do not share the contents of your files with third parties for advertising or behavioral profiling.

If advertising, analytics, cloud storage, crash reporting, or other online services are added to the App, this Privacy Policy will be updated to identify those services and explain the data they process.

9. Advertising and Analytics

Current status: The App does not use advertising or analytics services that collect personal information, unless otherwise disclosed in the App.

If the App displays advertisements or uses analytics services, those providers may process information such as:

• Device information.
• Advertising identifiers.
• Approximate location derived from an IP address.
• App interactions.
• Crash and performance information.

This section must be updated before such services are enabled.

10. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. Information may be shared only in the following circumstances:

• When you intentionally share a file with another application or person.
• When required to provide a feature you requested.
• When required by applicable law or a valid legal process.
• When necessary to protect users, the developer, or the public from fraud, abuse, or security threats.
• With service providers identified in this Privacy Policy, if applicable.

Because most processing occurs locally, we generally do not receive or possess your files.

11. Data Retention and Deletion

Files generated or imported by the App remain stored until:

• You delete them through the App.
• You delete them using your device’s file manager.
• You clear the App’s data.
• The operating system removes temporary files.
• You uninstall the App, for files stored in its private directory.

Files saved outside the App’s private directory may remain after uninstallation.

Because the App does not operate a user account or remote file-storage service, we generally cannot remotely locate or delete files stored on your device.

12. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to reduce the risk of unauthorized access, loss, alteration, or misuse of information processed by the App. These measures may include:

• Processing files locally whenever possible.
• Requesting only permissions needed for active features.
• Using system-provided file and photo pickers.
• Limiting file access to selected or App-created files.
• Keeping third-party dependencies updated.

However, no device, storage system, or data-transfer method can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You are responsible for securing your device, backups, and personal documents.

13. Children’s Privacy

The App is a general-purpose document utility and is not designed to collect personal information from children.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe that a child has provided personal information through a connected service used by the App, please contact us so that appropriate action can be taken.

Parents and guardians should supervise children’s use of files, cameras, and sharing features.

14. International Users

File processing is generally performed on your device. If the App later uses an online service, information processed by that service may be transferred to or processed in countries other than your country of residence.

Any such processing will be disclosed in an updated version of this Privacy Policy.

15. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights regarding your personal information. You can:

• Choose which images and documents the App may access.
• Deny or revoke permissions through device settings.
• Delete imported or generated files.
• Clear the App’s data.
• Uninstall the App.
• Choose whether to share files with another application.
• Contact us with privacy-related questions or requests.

If the App does not collect information on a remote server, some data-access or deletion requests may not apply because we do not possess the data stored locally on your device.

16. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in:

• App features.
• Permissions.
• Third-party services.
• Legal requirements.
• Security and operational practices.

The latest version will be displayed in the App and, where required, on a publicly accessible webpage.

The effective date at the top of this Privacy Policy will be updated whenever material changes are made. Continued use of the App after an update means you acknowledge the revised policy.
