Let's Talk About Your Privacy
If you've read the Privacy Policy of other tools, ours would feel like a breath of fresh air. We have avoided the legal jargon, and the page below will actually explain the policy in simple terms, because we care about you.
So, after going through our Privacy Policy, you'll actually understand it, rather than feel like you have gone through mambo-jumbo.

What Information We Collect
And why we actually need it
Why: An account is required to use our tool & service. To keep the account secure, manage the account, and for authentication, we use Supabase.
How Long: User account information is retained indefinitely, as we retain credits indefinitely and need to keep the account active for this purpose. But worry not!, If you request that we delete it, we will.
Why: We need the IP Address for rate-limiting purposes. This helps us prevent abuse and ensure fair usage for all users. It helps us catch abusers and stop them, so that the tool is accessible and operates at blazing-fast speed for all users.
How Long: The storage of IP addresses is for a short term. They're used in real-time to monitor the users, catch abusers, and are then discarded.
Why: The files and the metadata help perform OCR processing. It's the primary service you signed up for.
How long: The files and the metadata are stored for 24 hours. Thereafter, we delete everything from our servers. The deletion is permanent. We don't back up the file, metadata, or task details.
What we do with it: This data is used only for OCR processing. Nobody reads your documents. The data isn't analyzed for any other purposes, nor is the data used to train AI models. The data is entirely safe and is used only for the intended purpose.
Why: We use this data to compile usage history and bill you accordingly. For example, if you've converted 10 pages on Tuesday, we know that, but we have no idea what the pages contained because we don't store that data after 24 hours.
How long: The usage data is retained as long as your account is active, but the data within those pages isn't retained even for a day. The usage data is necessary for billing and usage tracking.
Analytics cookies (Google Analytics): These cookies are used to track user sessions, page views, and site interactions. The data is used to improve our tool. However, users can easily opt out by using browser settings or extensions specifically designed for the purpose.
Advertising cookies (Google Ads): The advertising cookies are used to enable retargeting campaigns. This helps us advertise to users who have already visited our website. However, you can disable personalized ads from your Google account settings.

How We Keep Your Account & Your Data Secure
We take your security seriously.
HTTPS All The Way
We use secure and encrypted connections to transmit data between your browser and servers. We use TLS/SSL for this purpose.
Data is Encrypted
All the files stored on our servers, even if temporarily, are encrypted. It means your data, even when sitting idle on our servers, is completely safe and protected.
Automatic File Deletion
As an added layer of privacy and security, we delete all user input files after 24 hours. This process is automatic and ensures that nothing can be leaked or hacked, as there are simply no such files on the server.
Secure Authentication
We use highly secure industry-standard security and authentication protocols like OAuth 2.0 via Google, managed by Supabase. We also consistently work on improving security to ensure that with each passing week, our tool becomes even more secure.
Note: Despite our best and consistent efforts, there can be a few security glitches in our tool in some very, very rare situations. In such cases, we work in real-time and consistently to fix something that's gone wrong. In such a case, we'll fix the problem immediately and notify affected users within 72 hours.

The Bottom Line
On a personal note, as the creator of this tool, I can assure you with complete confidence that I have built it to solve a problem, not collect data.
We collect only the data we need. We aggressively protect the data we collect. We delete data as soon as its purpose is served. And that's how it works in all honesty.
