Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2026

Our Commitment to Privacy

GetSolutions is built by a solo developer who believes your data is yours, not ours. This privacy policy applies to all GetSolutions apps (GetPDF, GetScan, GetCompress, GetSecure) and websites (including GetPDF.me and GetSolutions.app).

What We DON'T Collect

We don't collect, store, or transmit your personal data. Specifically:

  • We don't collect your files, documents, photos, or any content you process
  • We don't track your location
  • We don't collect your contacts, messages, or call logs
  • We don't build profiles about you
  • We don't sell your data to anyone (because we don't have any)

How Our Apps Work

Our apps process everything locally on your device. When you edit a PDF, scan a document, compress a file, or check app permissions, all of that happens entirely on your phone or in your browser. Your files never leave your device unless you explicitly choose to share them using your device's standard sharing features.

What We Do Collect (The Bare Minimum)

To keep the lights on and improve our apps, we collect minimal, anonymous data:

  • Crash reports: If an app crashes, Android may send us anonymous crash logs so we can fix bugs. These don't contain your personal data or file contents.
  • Basic analytics: We may collect anonymous usage statistics (like which features are used most) through Google Play Services. This helps us understand what to improve.
  • Ad interactions: Some apps show lightweight ads. Ad providers may collect anonymous data about ad views and clicks. We use reputable ad networks that comply with privacy regulations.

Third-Party Services

Our apps may use these third-party services:

  • Google Play Services: For app distribution, crash reporting, and basic analytics
  • Ad Networks: For displaying lightweight ads in free versions of our apps

These services have their own privacy policies. We choose providers that respect user privacy, but we recommend reviewing their policies if you're concerned.

App Permissions

Our apps only request permissions necessary for their core functionality:

  • Storage/Files: To read and save documents you're working with
  • Camera: (GetScan only) To capture document photos
  • Internet: Only for displaying ads or downloading app updates, never for uploading your data

We never access permissions for unrelated purposes. If an app doesn't need your camera, it won't ask for it.

Children's Privacy

Our apps and services are not directed at children under 13. We don't knowingly collect information from children. If you're a parent and believe your child has provided us with information, please contact us and we'll delete it.

Data Security

Since we don't collect or store your personal data, there's no central database to breach. Your files and data stay on your device, protected by your device's security features. We recommend using device encryption and screen locks for maximum security.

Your Rights

Since we don't collect your personal data, there's nothing for us to access, modify, or delete. You have complete control over your data because it never leaves your device. You can uninstall our apps at any time, and all local data will be removed according to your device's standard app data handling.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy occasionally to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We'll update the "Last updated" date at the top. Significant changes will be announced in app updates or on our website.

Contact Us

If you have questions about this privacy policy or our privacy practices, you can reach us at:

Email: privacy@getsolutions.app

We're a small operation (solo dev!), so responses might take a few days, but we read every message.

The Bottom Line

We built GetSolutions because we were frustrated with apps that treat users like products. Your files are yours, your privacy is yours, and we have no interest in either. We make money through lightweight ads and optional upgrades, not by hoarding your data.
