Privacy Policy — PDF Translator & Editor

Developer: KRK Software | Effective date: November 5, 2026 | Contact: krkinteractivestudio@gmail.com

PDF Translator & Editor (package: com.krk.pdf.translator.editor) is a productivity utility designed to translate documents, edit PDF text, and manage documents on Android. Your document privacy is fundamental: your personal documents and files belong strictly to you. This policy explains exactly what data is processed, why, and how it is handled.

2. Data We Process & How It Is Used

2.1 Document Access & Local Storage

When you select a PDF or document, the application accesses it using standard Android Storage Access Framework (SAF). Reading, layout reconstruction, text editing, rendering, and saving occur locally on your device. We do not operate any remote servers that store, mirror, or collect your files.

2.2 Document Translation

When you tap "Translate", the extracted text segments from the selected page are transmitted securely via encrypted HTTPS to the Google Translation API to return the translated text in your chosen language. This transmission happens exclusively upon your explicit action. The full original PDF file is never uploaded as a binary file. Please review Google Cloud Privacy Notice for details on how Google processes translation requests.

2.3 Camera & OCR Document Scanning

When you use the Camera Scan feature, camera access is requested strictly for capturing document pages. Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is performed directly on your device. Captured images and recognized text are kept in your local device sandbox and are never transmitted to any third-party image server.

2.4 Advertising (Google AdMob)

The free tier of the application uses the Google Mobile Ads SDK (AdMob) to display advertisements (banner and rewarded ads). AdMob may automatically collect and process certain non-personal device data, such as:

Google Advertising ID (AAID)
Device model, operating system version, and general network connection type
Ad interaction and performance metrics (e.g., ad views, clicks, and load diagnostics)

You can reset your Advertising ID or opt out of personalized ads at any time through your Android device settings (Settings → Google → Ads).

2.5 Subscriptions & In-App Purchases

Purchases and subscriptions are processed entirely by the official Google Play Billing system. KRK Software never receives or stores your credit card, debit card, or billing information. We receive only an anonymous confirmation token from Google Play indicating active license status.

3. Data We Do NOT Collect

We do not store or keep copies of your documents or translated files on our servers
We do not collect your real name, physical address, or phone number
We do not collect your contact list, microphone audio, or GPS location
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to data brokers or third parties

4. Data Retention

Because document processing occurs locally, all generated documents, cached translation previews, and app settings reside on your device. You can permanently delete all local data at any time by clearing the application storage in Android settings or by uninstalling the application.

5. Third-Party Services

Service	Purpose	Privacy Policy
Google Mobile Ads (AdMob)	Ad serving (Banner and rewarded ads)	policies.google.com/privacy
Google Play Billing	In-app purchases and subscriptions	policies.google.com/privacy
Google Cloud Translation API	Text translation (user-initiated)	cloud.google.com/terms/cloud-privacy-notice

6. Children's Privacy

PDF Translator & Editor is a general-audience productivity tool and is not directed to children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please reach out to us at krkinteractivestudio@gmail.com and we will take prompt action.

7. Your Rights (GDPR / CCPA / KVKK)

Depending on your location (such as the European Economic Area, California, or Turkey under KVKK No. 6698), you may have rights regarding your personal data:

The right to know what personal data is processed
The right to request erasure of your data
The right to opt out of advertising identifiers via Android settings
The right to lodge an inquiry or complaint with your data protection supervisory authority

For any questions or privacy inquiries, you can contact us at krkinteractivestudio@gmail.com.

8. Security

We prioritize the security of your documents and communications:

All translation requests use encrypted HTTPS / TLS 1.3 channels
Processed files remain restricted to your private Android app sandbox or directories you select
No unauthenticated third parties have access to your local document files

9. Changes to This Policy

We may periodically update this Privacy Policy. Any changes will be published here with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this page periodically for any updates.
