PDF Scanner: Offline Tools

Privacy Policy

How PDF Scanner: Offline Tools handles documents, camera images, local app data, advertising data and support messages.

Last updated: 5 September 2026

1. Scope and contact

This Privacy Policy applies to PDF Scanner: Offline Tools, Android package com.pdfscanner.offlinetoolbox (the “App”), published by Easy Game Devs (“we”, “us” or “the developer”). Contact us at easygamedevs@gmail.com.

The App does not require an account and we do not operate a cloud service for your documents.

In short: scans, imported images, PDFs, recognized text, signatures and edits are processed on your Android device. We do not upload those documents to our servers, Firebase or advertising providers. Optional Firebase diagnostics and Google advertising and consent services process separate technical data as described below.

2. Information handled by the App

InformationWhy it is usedWhere it is handled
Camera images, imported images and PDFsScan, crop, correct perspective, filter, convert and edit at your request.Locally on your device. Not uploaded to us or Google Mobile Ads.
OCR text, signatures, annotations, passwords and watermarksApply the document feature you select.Locally on your device. Passwords are not sent to us.
Names, folders, tags, favorites, recent items and settingsProvide the local library, search and personalization.In the App's private storage on your device.
Copies you export or shareSend the result to a location or app you choose.Only after your action; the destination then controls its copy.
Usage analytics and crash diagnosticsMeasure feature reliability and diagnose crashes, non-fatal errors and ANRs when diagnostics are enabled.Processed by Google Firebase as explained in section 5. Document contents, names and paths are excluded from custom events and diagnostics.
Advertising and consent dataShow ads, measure delivery, prevent fraud and present regional privacy choices.Processed by Google as explained in section 5.
Support email and attachmentsAnswer a request you voluntarily send.Through your and our email providers.

3. Local processing and permissions

The App uses the camera and system file picker only when you request an action. Edge detection, perspective correction, filters, image-to-PDF conversion, merge, split, rotation, reordering, compression, signing, annotation, watermarking, page numbering, password protection and organization run locally.

Optical character recognition (OCR) uses an on-device component where supported. Recognized text stays on the device unless you explicitly export or share it. Availability and accuracy can vary with language, image quality and device capabilities.

  • Camera: captures document pages when you use the scanner.
  • Internet and network state: load Google ads, obtain consent messages and check connectivity. Your PDF contents are not sent through this permission.
  • Files: Android's system picker lets you choose input and export locations. The App does not request broad access to all shared storage.

You can deny or revoke a permission in Android settings. The related feature may then be unavailable.

4. Storage, security, retention and deletion

Working documents and library records are stored inside the App's private Android area. Android backup is disabled. Safeguards include app lock, screenshot protection, PDF password protection and an optional AES-256 encrypted backup vault created only when you request it. No system guarantees absolute security, so keep separate copies of important files.

Local documents remain until you remove them, clear App data or uninstall the App. A delete action can move an item to the App's local trash or recovery area. Clearing App data or uninstalling removes App-private copies. Previously exported or shared copies are outside the App and must be deleted from each destination separately.

We keep support correspondence only as reasonably necessary to answer the request, maintain security, meet legal obligations or resolve disputes, then delete or anonymize it when no longer needed. Google controls retention of Firebase and advertising data it processes.

5. Firebase diagnostics, advertising and consent

When Usage analytics and crash reports is enabled in Settings, Google Analytics for Firebase receives technical events such as screen and tool identifiers, operation success or failure, a coarse duration range, output count, app language and theme, and export or share method. Analytics also processes sessions, approximate geolocation derived from a masked IP address, device and app information, and a pseudonymous app-instance identifier; Analytics advertising-ID collection and ad-personalization signals are disabled by the App. Crashlytics receives release-build crash, non-fatal and ANR diagnostics such as stack traces, app and device metadata, installation identifiers, and sanitized last-screen and last-operation breadcrumbs. We deliberately exclude document contents, images, names, paths, URIs, OCR or search text, watermark text, passwords and signatures.

Diagnostics are enabled by default after a valid production Firebase configuration is installed. You can turn them off in Settings; the choice applies no later than the next app launch. The App disables automatic Firebase collection until it has read this local choice, disables Crashlytics uploads in debug and store-screenshot builds, and requests deletion of unsent reports when you opt out.

The App integrates Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) for banner, interstitial and app-open ads, and Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) for applicable privacy messages. Depending on your region, choices, configuration and device settings, Google may process or share IP address (which can indicate approximate general location), app interactions, diagnostic information, device identifiers and advertising identifiers for advertising, analytics and fraud prevention.

When required, UMP presents a consent or privacy-options form. The App provides an “Advertising privacy choices” setting when Google reports that options are required. You can also manage ad personalization in My Ad Center and reset or delete the advertising ID in Android settings where available.

Google states that Mobile Ads and Firebase SDK data is encrypted in transit. See Google's Firebase data disclosure, Firebase privacy information, Mobile Ads data disclosure, consent documentation and Privacy Policy.

6. Disclosure and sale

We do not sell your documents or their contents. Information is disclosed only:

  • to Google for Firebase diagnostics, advertising and consent as described above;
  • to a destination or third-party app that you explicitly select for export or sharing;
  • when reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect rights and safety, investigate abuse or defend legal claims.

Third-party destinations and applications have their own privacy practices.

7. Children, sensitive documents and your rights

The App is a general document utility and is not designed specifically for children. Do not send identity papers, financial or medical records, signatures, passwords or confidential document contents in a support email. A parent or guardian should supervise a child's use where required by law.

You control local documents through the App and Android. You may delete local data, clear App data, uninstall, revoke camera access, choose whether to export or share, and revisit advertising privacy choices when available. Because we do not receive your local documents, we cannot retrieve or delete them for you.

Depending on your location, you may have rights concerning personal data we hold through support correspondence. Send a request to easygamedevs@gmail.com. We may need reasonable information to verify it. Advertising-data requests should also use Google's privacy controls.

8. This website, changes and contact

This static website has no analytics, advertising scripts, tracking pixels or contact form. It stores only your language preference in the browser. The hosting provider may keep standard security and access logs under its own terms. External links and email apps are governed by those services.

We may update this policy when the App, providers or legal requirements change. The date above shows the latest revision. Material changes will be presented through the App or store listing when appropriate.
