Effective Date: 13 October 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Pageless handles your information.
Pageless is designed to keep your documents under your control. It does not require an account and does not use a developer-operated server.
Your documents, reading progress, and settings are stored locally on your device. The app does not connect to the internet: PDFs are converted for reading entirely on your device, and nothing you read is sent anywhere.
The app may store the following information locally:
Your PDFs are kept in the app's folder, which you can also see in the Files app. Reader-ready copies and thumbnails are kept in the app's private storage.
Documents are processed on your device. Pageless reads the text, layout, tables, figures, and formulas of a PDF locally to present it in reading mode.
When you open a PDF in Pageless from another app, such as Mail, Safari, or Files, a copy is added to your library.
The app shares a document or its content only when you choose to, for example with the Share button or Copy Table, and only with the app or destination you select.
Your PDFs are included in your device's iCloud or computer backups, like other files in the Files app, according to your device's backup settings. Reader-ready copies are excluded from backups and are prepared again when needed.
