ClearPDF is designed to be an offline-first PDF utility for Android.
- It does not require an account.
- It does not show ads.
- It does not include analytics, telemetry, or crash-reporting services.
- It does not intentionally upload PDFs or extracted content to a server.
- The app does not request Android's
INTERNETpermission.
Files are opened or saved only when you choose them through Android's document picker or the app's export flow. Recent-file entries are stored locally on the device and can be removed from the home screen.
Scanning and text-selection features use the on-device Google ML Kit components listed in NOTICE. ClearPDF does not intentionally send their input to a ClearPDF server. This dependency is disclosed so contributors can make informed decisions about builds and distribution.
Please do not attach private PDFs or personal information to public issues. For a suspected security or privacy vulnerability, follow SECURITY.md.
