Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 21, 2026

1. Introduction

SeekerPDF ("we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our iOS application and website (seekerpdf.com).

2. Data We Collect

We collect minimal data necessary to provide our services:

  • Account Information: Email address and name (if you create an account for Pro/Team plans).
  • Usage Analytics: Anonymous, aggregated app usage statistics (feature usage counts, crash reports). No document content is ever collected.
  • Payment Information: Handled entirely by Apple (App Store) or Stripe. We never see or store your payment details.

3. Data We Do NOT Collect

  • We never read, store, or transmit your documents to our servers.
  • We never access your LLM API keys. They are stored exclusively in the iOS Keychain on your device.
  • We never track your location, contacts, or other personal data.
  • AI analysis requests go directly from your device to your chosen LLM provider — not through our servers.

4. Third-Party LLM Providers

When you use AI-powered features, document text is sent directly from your device to the LLM provider you have configured (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, HuggingFace, or your custom endpoint). Each provider has its own privacy policy and data retention practices. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of your chosen provider. If you use Ollama, all processing happens locally on your device with no external data transmission.

5. On-Device Security

  • Biometric Authentication: Face ID / Touch ID for app access.
  • Keychain Encryption: API keys are stored using iOS Keychain Services with hardware-backed encryption.
  • Document Passwords: Optional password protection for individual documents.
  • Jailbreak Detection: The app detects compromised devices and warns users.

6. Data Retention

All document data, analysis results, and user preferences are stored locally on your device. When you delete the app, all local data is removed. If you have a subscription, account information is retained until you request deletion.

7. Your Rights

You have the right to: access the personal data we hold about you, request correction of inaccurate data, request deletion of your data, withdraw consent at any time, and data portability. To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@seekerpdf.com.

8. Children's Privacy

SeekerPDF is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected data from a child, please contact us immediately.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
