1. Introduction

AR Foundation ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how PDF Lover collects, uses, and safeguards your information when you use our application.

2. Information We Collect

• PDF File Paths: We store paths to recently opened PDF files locally on your device for the "Recent Files" feature. We never upload your files.
• AI Conversations: Chat history linked to your PDFs is stored locally on your device only.
• Device Permissions: We request storage access to scan for PDF files. We do not collect or transmit device identifiers.

3. Data Storage & Transmission

PDF Lover is a privacy-first application:

• All data (file history, annotations, chat logs) is stored exclusively on your device.
• Your PDF files are NEVER uploaded to our servers.
• When using the AI feature, only the text content extracted from the PDF is sent to Google's Gemini API.

4. AI & Third-Party Services

The AI chat feature uses Google Gemini. When you use this feature, document content is transmitted to Google's servers as per their Privacy Policy. We recommend reviewing Google's Privacy Policy at policies.google.com. We do not share your data with any other third parties.

5. Children's Privacy

PDF Lover does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately.

6. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your information. Since all data is stored locally, your device's security (screen lock, encryption) directly protects your data.

7. Changes to Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any significant changes by updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
