Simply PDF is a PDF editor for iPhone and iPad. This policy describes what the app does with your information. It is short because the app does very little with it.
Every document you open, fill, sign, annotate, redact, scan or combine is stored on your device only. Simply PDF has no server, no account system and no cloud storage. We cannot see your documents, and no one can see them through us.
A document leaves your device only when you send it — with the iOS share sheet, Mail, Messages, AirDrop, printing, or any other app you choose. From that point the document is handled by the app or service you picked, under its own privacy policy.
Simply PDF does not ask you to sign up, sign in, or give an email address. There is no profile to create and nothing to delete later.
Simply PDF contains no analytics, no advertising SDK and no third-party tracking of any kind. It does not use the App Tracking Transparency framework because it does not track you across apps or websites. Its App Store privacy label reads Data Not Collected, and that is meant literally.
When you scan a document or make a scanned PDF searchable, text recognition runs entirely on your device using Apple's Vision framework. No image and no recognized text is uploaded anywhere.
Neither is used for anything else, and neither is transmitted.
Simply PDF Pro is sold through the App Store. Apple processes the payment and tells the app whether a subscription is active; we never see your payment details. Purchase records are handled under Apple's Privacy Policy.
Simply PDF is not directed at children and collects no personal information from anyone, including children.
