UMA PDF Privacy policy
# UMA PDF Privacy PolicyEffective September 20, 2026UMA PDF is designed to let you open, view, organize, search, and create PDF documents while keeping you in control of your information. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use UMA PDF.## Information We CollectUMA PDF does not collect personal information, document contents, usage analytics, advertising identifiers, location information, contacts, or browsing history. The app does not require an account and does not include advertising or third-party analytics SDKs.## Documents and App DataPDFs, folders, bookmarks, document order, preferences, and other library information are stored locally on your device. Text recognition used to create searchable PDFs is performed on the device. UMA PDF does not automatically send your documents or recognized text to the developer.When you choose to open, import, export, or share a file, the file is handled according to the action you select and the destination service or app you choose. Copies exported or shared outside UMA PDF are governed by the privacy practices of the selected destination.## Camera and Photo LibraryUMA PDF may request access to the camera so you can photograph documents and may use Apple's photo picker so you can select images for PDF creation. Images are used only to perform the feature you request. Camera images, selected photos, and text recognized from them are processed on your device and are not sent to the developer.You can change camera or photo access at any time in the iOS Settings app.## Face ID, Touch ID, and Device AuthenticationIf you enable app protection, UMA PDF uses Apple's Local Authentication system to request Face ID, Touch ID, or device-passcode authentication. UMA PDF receives only the result of the authentication attempt. The app does not receive, store, or transmit your biometric data or device passcode.You can disable app protection in UMA PDF's Settings.## iCloud BackupiCloud backup is optional. If you enable it, UMA PDF creates a backup containing your PDFs, folders, document order, and bookmarks in the app's folder within your personal iCloud Drive account. The backup is transmitted to and stored by Apple under your Apple Account and Apple's terms and privacy practices. The developer does not operate the iCloud service and does not have access to your personal iCloud Drive files.You can stop future backups by disabling iCloud Backup in UMA PDF. You can delete an existing backup using Apple's Files app by removing the UMA PDF backup from iCloud Drive. Files may remain in Recently Deleted until permanently removed according to Apple's iCloud behavior.## PurchasesUMA PDF offers an optional, one-time in-app purchase. Purchases and restorations are processed by Apple through the App Store and StoreKit. The developer does not receive your full payment-card details. Apple may provide transaction, financial, and sales information to the developer as part of operating the App Store. Apple's handling of that information is governed by Apple's privacy policy.UMA PDF stores the app's unlock status through Apple's StoreKit system. A counter used to enforce the free PDF-creation allowance is stored locally in the device Keychain and is not sent to the developer.## DiagnosticsUMA PDF does not automatically transmit diagnostic files to the developer. If you enable the app's optional diagnostic output, diagnostic information is included only in the PDF copy that you create. You decide whether to save or share that file.Apple may separately provide crash reports or App Store analytics to developers when users have chosen to share such information with Apple. That information is collected and controlled by Apple under Apple's privacy settings and policies.## Data Sharing and SaleThe developer does not sell, rent, or use your information for advertising and does not share your documents or app activity with data brokers, advertising networks, or analytics providers.Information is provided to Apple only when necessary for user-requested Apple services, including iCloud backup and App Store purchases. Apple applies its own privacy protections to those services.## Data Retention and DeletionLocal documents and app data remain on your device until you delete them in UMA PDF or remove the app. Removing the app generally deletes its local documents and settings, although Keychain items may persist according to iOS behavior.iCloud backups remain in your iCloud Drive until you delete them. Exported or shared copies remain wherever you chose to save or send them and must be deleted from those locations separately.Because UMA PDF does not maintain user accounts or a developer-operated database containing your documents, there is no developer account or server-side document record to delete. You control deletion through UMA PDF, the iOS Settings app, the Files app, and your iCloud settings.## Children's PrivacyUMA PDF is a general-purpose document utility and is not directed specifically to children. The developer does not knowingly collect personal information from children.## SecurityUMA PDF uses iOS security features and offers optional device authentication to help protect access to the app. No storage or transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You are responsible for maintaining control of your device, Apple Account, exported files, and backups.## Changes to This PolicyThis Privacy Policy may be updated when UMA PDF's features or data practices change. The revised policy will show a new effective date. Material changes will be reflected in the published policy and, when appropriate, in the app or its App Store listing.## ContactFor privacy questions about UMA PDF, contact:[email protected]## Apple Privacy InformationFor information about how Apple handles information through the App Store, iCloud, StoreKit, device authentication, and related services, visit Apple's Privacy Policy.Apple Privacy Policy
