Privacy Policy — Image to PDF - PDF ScanPro

Developer: Gimy Studios Contact: gimystudios@gmail.com Effective date: 17 July 2026

Image to PDF - PDF ScanPro (“the App”) is a document scanning and PDF utility app published by Gimy Studios. This policy explains what information the App handles and how.

The short version

• Your documents never leave your phone. Scanning, image-to-PDF conversion, text recognition (OCR), merging, compression, page editing and password protection all happen entirely on your device. We do not see, collect, upload or store your documents, scans, or extracted text.
• The App does not require an account. We do not collect your name, email address, contacts, or location.
• The App shows advertising (Google AdMob) and uses crash reporting (Google Firebase Crashlytics). These Google services collect limited device information described below.

1. Information the App does NOT collect

We do not collect, transmit or store: your documents, scans, photos, PDFs, text extracted by OCR, PDF passwords, file names, contacts, precise location, or any account information. PDF passwords you set are used only on your device to encrypt the file and are never stored by the App.

2. Information collected by third-party services

The App uses the following Google services, which collect limited data to provide their function:

Google AdMob (advertising)

AdMob may collect and use: advertising identifier (Advertising ID), IP address, coarse location derived from IP, device type and model, operating system version, and ad interaction data (views, clicks). This data is used to serve and measure ads and to detect fraud. Where required by law (for example in the EEA/UK), the App shows a consent message before personalised ads are served, and you may decline personalised advertising.

Google Firebase Crashlytics (crash reporting)

If the App crashes, Crashlytics collects: crash stack traces, device model, operating system version, and an app-instance identifier. This helps us fix bugs. Crash data contains no document content. Learn more: https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy

Google ML Kit (document scanning and text recognition)

The App uses ML Kit’s on-device document scanner and text recognition. Processing happens on your device; your images and recognised text are not sent to Google by the App.

3. Permissions the App requests and why

• Camera — to scan documents. Images are processed on-device.
• Photos / storage access — to let you pick images to convert and to save your PDFs to your device’s Downloads folder.

The App does not request microphone, contacts, or location permissions.

4. Where your files are stored

Created PDFs are stored on your device: inside the App’s private storage and (for your convenience) a copy in your device’s public Downloads/ScanPro folder. You can delete them at any time using the App or your file manager. Deleting the App removes its private storage; files you exported to Downloads remain until you delete them.

5. Rewarded ads and the ad-free period

You may voluntarily watch rewarded video ads to disable ads for 24 hours. Your progress and the ad-free expiry time are stored only on your device.

6. Children

The App is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

7. Data security

Your documents remain on your device under your control. PDF password protection uses AES-256 encryption. Note: if you forget a password you set on a PDF, it cannot be recovered.

8. Your choices and rights

• You may reset your device’s Advertising ID or opt out of ad personalisation in Android Settings → Google → Ads.
• EEA/UK users can change their ad-consent choice; contact us if you need the consent form shown again.
• Uninstalling the App deletes all data stored by the App on your device.
• For any privacy question or request, email gimystudios@gmail.com.

9. Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will update this page and the effective date above. Material changes will be noted in the App’s update notes.
