PDFly Privacy Policy
This policy describes the privacy practices for the PDFly website and its online PDF tools. The Android app distributed through Google Play may use additional software components, including an advertising SDK; those practices are also summarized below.
1. Online PDF tools
The website provides browser-based tools for supported PDF and document tasks. The bundled tools are intended to process selected files locally in the browser where the particular feature supports local processing. Do not assume every feature, conversion or third-party resource is fully offline. Your browser, hosting provider and network may create technical records when you visit the website.
2. Files you select
When you select a file, it is made available to the tool running in your browser. The website owner does not intentionally receive selected documents through a PDFly-operated upload service in this static website build. This statement does not cover browser extensions, your device, hosting logs, or any future feature that explicitly sends data to a server. Avoid processing highly sensitive documents until you have verified the behavior of the exact feature you intend to use.
3. Server logs and cookies
The hosting provider may process standard request information such as IP address, requested URL, timestamp, browser type and security logs. The website itself does not require you to create an account. This website displays advertisements served by the third-party ad network Adsterra. Ad networks and their partners may use cookies, device identifiers and similar technologies to deliver, measure and personalize ads. You can limit this through your browser's cookie settings or ad-blocking tools. Fonts may be requested from Google Fonts when an internet connection is available; use of those resources is subject to the provider's policies. Hosting configuration may affect what logs are retained.
4. Website advertising, Android app and advertising
The PDFly Android source package reviewed for this website includes the Start.io (StartApp) advertising SDK. Advertising providers and their partners may process device, network, advertising and interaction information for ad delivery, measurement, fraud prevention or related purposes under their own policies. The Android app's data practices may differ from this website. Review the current Google Play Data safety section and the provider's privacy information before installing or using the app.
Start.io privacy information: https://www.start.io/policy/privacy-policy/.
5. Retention and deletion
Files processed locally by a browser tool generally remain under the control of the browser session and your device, unless a feature clearly indicates otherwise. You can remove downloaded files using your device's file manager. Hosting and security logs, if enabled, are retained according to the hosting provider's configuration and policies.
6. Children
This website and the PDFly app are general-purpose productivity tools and are not specifically designed for children.
7. Security
Use the website over HTTPS. No electronic system can be guaranteed completely secure. Keep your browser and device updated and do not upload or select sensitive files unless you understand how the chosen feature works.
8. Third-party links
The website may link to Google Play and third-party privacy pages. Those services operate under their own terms and privacy policies.
9. Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated when the website, app, or included third-party components change. The effective date above will be revised when material changes are made.
10. Contact
For questions about the Android app, use the developer contact details shown on the official Google Play listing. For website-related requests, contact the website operator through the hosting/domain contact channel associated with the domain serving this site.
