Terms of Service

Last updated: May 13, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Scanner PDF: Scan & Edit mobile application ("Scanner PDF", "App", "Service"). By downloading, installing, or using Scanner PDF, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the App. These Terms also constitute the End User License Agreement (EULA) required by the Apple App Store.

1. Description of Service

Scanner PDF is a mobile application that allows you to scan physical documents using your iPhone camera, edit them, sign them, convert them to and from PDF, merge, split, compress, and protect them with a password. Document processing happens primarily on your device using Apple's native frameworks (VisionKit, Vision Framework, PDFKit, PencilKit). Certain features, such as converting PDFs to editable document formats (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), require server-side processing and are only triggered when you actively initiate them.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years of age (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction) to use Scanner PDF. By using the App, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement. If you are under 18, you should review these Terms with a parent or guardian before agreeing to them.

3. Account and Authentication

To use Scanner PDF, you create an account using either email and password (managed by Supabase) or Sign in with Apple. You are responsible for:

Providing accurate and current information during registration.
Maintaining the confidentiality of your password and credentials.
All activity that occurs under your account.
Notifying us promptly of any unauthorized access or breach of security.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, contain false information, or are used for fraudulent or abusive purposes.

4. License Grant

Subject to these Terms and your compliance with them, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download, install, and use Scanner PDF on Apple-branded products that you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial use. This license is governed by the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions and by the Licensed Application End User License Agreement available at apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula.

5. Subscriptions and Payments

Important: All purchases and subscriptions inside Scanner PDF are processed exclusively by Apple through the App Store. We do not collect, store, or have access to any payment information. All billing inquiries, refund requests, and subscription management must be handled through Apple.

a) Subscription Plans

Scanner PDF offers premium features through auto-renewing subscription plans. Pricing, billing periods, and trial terms are clearly displayed on the in-app paywall before you commit to a subscription. Pricing may vary by country, currency, and time of purchase.

b) Auto-Renewal

By subscribing, you authorize Apple to charge your selected payment method at the end of each billing period at the then-applicable rate. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period. Auto-renewal can be turned off at any time through iOS Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.

c) Free Trials

If your selected plan includes a free trial, the trial begins immediately upon purchase. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, your subscription will automatically convert to a paid plan at the price disclosed on the paywall. You can cancel during the trial without charge.

d) Cancellation and Refunds

You can cancel your subscription at any time through iOS Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. You retain access to premium features until that date. Refund requests are governed by Apple's refund policy and must be submitted to Apple directly. We do not process refunds because we do not handle payments.

e) Price Changes

We may change subscription prices from time to time. Any price increase will be communicated through the App or by email before it takes effect, and you will have the opportunity to accept the new price or cancel your subscription before the next renewal.

6. Your Content

You retain full ownership of any documents, scans, signatures, or other content you create, capture, or import using Scanner PDF ("Your Content"). We do not claim ownership of Your Content.

Your Content is stored locally on your device. We do not access, read, store, or analyze the content of your documents on our servers, except when you actively initiate a PDF conversion that requires server-side processing (see Privacy Policy for details). In that specific case, the document you select is transmitted solely to perform the conversion you requested and is not retained beyond what is reasonably necessary to deliver the result.

By using Scanner PDF, you represent and warrant that:

You own or have all necessary rights to scan, edit, sign, and process the content you submit through the App.
Your Content does not infringe on the intellectual property, privacy, or other rights of any third party.
Your Content does not violate any applicable law.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

Use Scanner PDF for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable laws or regulations.
Use the App to scan, edit, sign, or process documents that you do not have the legal right to handle (including but not limited to forging signatures, altering official documents, or manipulating identity documents).
Attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or extract source code from the App, except to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Interfere with or disrupt the App's servers, networks, infrastructure, or our service providers.
Use the App to transmit malware, viruses, or any harmful code.
Attempt to circumvent subscription requirements, access premium features without authorization, or share your subscription credentials with others.
Use automated systems (bots, scrapers, crawlers) to interact with the App or its services.
Resell, redistribute, or commercially exploit the App or any of its features without prior written authorization.
Use the App to harass, abuse, or harm others.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to Scanner PDF if you violate any of these acceptable use rules.

8. Intellectual Property

All content, design, graphics, interfaces, code, logos, trademarks, and other intellectual property within Scanner PDF are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by applicable copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right, title, or interest in the App except the limited license described in Section 4.

"Scanner PDF", "Scanner PDF: Scan & Edit", and our logo are our trademarks. You may not use these marks without our prior written consent.

9. Third-Party Services

Scanner PDF relies on third-party services to operate, including:

Apple: for authentication (Sign in with Apple), subscription billing (In-App Purchases), and platform services.
Supabase: for email/password authentication and storage of account-related metadata.
PDF conversion provider (CloudConvert or equivalent): for server-side PDF-to-document conversion when you actively request it.

These third-party services operate under their own terms of service and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the actions, availability, or policies of third-party providers. Service interruptions caused by third parties may affect app functionality.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

Scanner PDF is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, reliability, and non-infringement.

We do not warrant that:

The App will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free.
Defects in the App will be corrected.
The App will meet your specific requirements or expectations.
OCR results, conversion outputs, or signed documents will be 100% accurate or suitable for legal, official, or contractual use.
Documents converted from PDF will retain perfect formatting, layout, or fidelity in every case.

You use the App at your own risk. If you rely on Scanner PDF for legal, official, or contractual document handling, you are responsible for verifying the accuracy and legal validity of the resulting files.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Scanner PDF and its developers shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the App. This includes but is not limited to damages resulting from:

Loss of documents or scanned content.
Inaccurate OCR or conversion results.
Issues with signed or processed documents.
Service interruptions or technical failures.
Unauthorized access to your account.

Our total liability for any claim related to the App shall not exceed the amount you paid for the App or subscription in the 12 months preceding the claim, or USD 50, whichever is greater. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so these limitations may not apply to you.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Scanner PDF, its developers, owners, employees, and affiliates from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from:

Your use or misuse of the App.
Your violation of these Terms.
Your violation of any rights of a third party, including intellectual property, privacy, or contractual rights.
Any content you create, scan, sign, or process through the App.

13. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to Scanner PDF at any time, with or without cause, and with or without notice, particularly if you violate these Terms. You may stop using the App at any time by uninstalling it from your device and deleting your account through the in-app account deletion option or by contacting us.

Sections regarding intellectual property, disclaimer of warranties, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law survive termination.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may modify these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in the App, applicable laws, or our business practices. Updated Terms will be posted within the App and on our website with a revised "Last updated" date. Material changes will be communicated through the App when reasonably possible. Your continued use of Scanner PDF after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically.

15. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Spain, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising from or relating to these Terms shall first be attempted to be resolved through good-faith negotiation.

If negotiation fails, disputes shall be resolved through binding arbitration or in the competent courts of Spain. If you reside in the European Union, you retain the right to bring claims before the consumer protection authorities of your country of residence.

The following terms apply if you obtained Scanner PDF through the Apple App Store:

We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App, including product liability, legal compliance, and intellectual property claims.
Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and have the right to enforce them.

17. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
