Privacy

Privacy Policy

Last updated June 2026

The short version

  • PDF Daisy runs entirely on your computer.
  • We don’t collect, store, or transmit any personal information.
  • No account, no sign-in, no subscription.
  • No telemetry, analytics, tracking, or cloud uploads.
  • Your documents never leave your device.

What this policy covers

This policy explains how the PDF Daisy desktop application for Windows handles your information. PDF Daisy is built as a local-first tool, so the simplest way to describe it is this: it doesn’t gather data about you, and it doesn’t send your files anywhere.

Information we collect

None. PDF Daisy does not collect, store, or transmit personal information, usage data, or the contents of the documents you open. There are no accounts to create and no profiles to maintain, so there is nothing for us to gather in the first place.

How your documents are handled

Everything you do in PDF Daisy — viewing, editing, annotating, signing, OCR, organizing pages, and redaction — happens locally on your own computer. Your files, signatures, annotations, and recognized (OCR) text stay on your device and are never uploaded to us or to any third party.

No accounts or sign-in

PDF Daisy does not require an account, email address, or login. You can use the app without identifying yourself in any way.

No analytics, telemetry, or tracking

The app does not include analytics SDKs, telemetry, advertising identifiers, or tracking cookies. We do not measure how you use the app, and we do not build a profile of your activity.

Third parties

Because PDF Daisy does not collect data, there is no personal information to sell, share, or hand off to third-party services. We do not integrate ad networks or data brokers.

Network use

PDF Daisy is designed to work fully offline for your everyday PDF tasks. If a future version adds an optional feature that uses the network — such as checking for an update — it will be clearly described, and your document contents will still never be transmitted.

Children’s privacy

PDF Daisy does not collect personal information from anyone, including children. No personal data is gathered regardless of the user’s age.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, we’ll update the date at the top of this page. Since PDF Daisy stays local-first by design, any future updates will keep that same privacy-respecting approach.
