PageLoom Privacy Policy

Information We Collect

No account information

PageLoom does not require you to create an account, register, or log in.

Local documents and user content

You may import PDFs from Files into the app sandbox. Imported PDFs, exported partial PDFs, extracted text, OCR results, and global prompt templates are handled locally on your device. We do not receive these files or their contents.

Purchase information handled by Apple

PageLoom includes a StoreKit In-App Purchase named PageLoom Pro with Product ID com.wang2.PdfSplitReader.pro.lifetime. Purchases and restores are processed by Apple App Store and StoreKit. We do not receive your full payment details.

Diagnostics and analytics from Apple

Apple may provide developers with system logs, crash reports, performance diagnostics, or App Store Connect statistics, depending on your device and Apple account settings. We do not use these reports to actively collect personally identifiable information.

How We Use Information

PageLoom uses local files and content only to provide app features you choose to use:

• reading PDFs locally;
• splitting PDFs by page range;
• exporting the current selected page range as a partial PDF;
• extracting text from a PDF text layer;
• attempting local OCR fallback on iPhone and iPad when text is not copyable;
• saving and applying prompt templates stored on your device;
• sharing user-selected PDFs or text through the system share sheet.

Local Processing

PDF reading

PDF reading happens in the app on your device.

PDF text extraction

PageLoom first tries to extract text from the PDF text layer using Apple PDFKit where available.

On-device OCR fallback on iPhone and iPad

If a PDF page has no copyable text, PageLoom may try an on-device OCR fallback on iOS and iPadOS. macOS currently does not perform scanned-document OCR fallback in PageLoom. OCR and text extraction are performed locally; PageLoom does not use third-party cloud OCR.

Sharing

System share sheet

PageLoom lets you share user-selected PDF fragments or extracted text through the Apple system share sheet.

Third-party destination responsibility

When you choose to share content with another app, website, AI app, or other third-party destination, that destination receives the content you selected. The privacy policy and terms of that third party apply to the shared content. PageLoom does not send PDFs, extracted text, or OCR content to AI services on your behalf.

In-App Purchases

PageLoom Pro is a non-consumable lifetime unlock. Purchase, billing, refunds, family sharing availability, and restore behavior are handled by Apple App Store and StoreKit under Apple's policies.

Data Retention

Imported PDFs and locally saved app data remain on your device unless you delete them in the app or remove the app from your device. Prompt templates are also stored locally until you edit or delete them, reset app data, or uninstall the app.

Children's Privacy

PageLoom is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from children. Because PageLoom does not require accounts and does not upload user documents to our servers, we do not knowingly collect children's personal information through the app.

Security

PageLoom is designed around local document handling. You are responsible for protecting your device, device passcode, backups, and any third-party destinations you choose when sharing content.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when PageLoom changes or when legal, technical, or App Store requirements change. The Effective Date above will be updated when the policy changes materially.
