Privacy Policy
Papr — Last updated: January 2026
The Short Version
Papr processes PDFs locally in your browser. We do not upload your files or run analytics. We do not display ads. The only information you actively send us is through the Contact Us form, and your browser may connect to third-party providers to download fonts and OCR/PDF assets.
Papr is operated by Barebones Supplements LLC, a Connecticut limited liability company.
How Papr Works
Papr is a browser-based PDF editor. PDF processing happens locally in your browser; your files and annotations are not uploaded to our servers. Some features download fonts and OCR/PDF assets from third-party CDNs.
What We Collect
We do not collect, transmit, or store:
- Your PDF files or their contents
- Usage analytics
- First-party analytics or tracking cookies
- Advertising identifiers
If you choose to contact us, we receive the information you submit as described below.
Local Storage
Papr stores data in your browser (IndexedDB and localStorage) to support session recovery, annotations, and preferences like theme. OCR language packs and translation models are also stored locally after download. This data stays on your device and may persist until you clear site data.
Third-Party Content Delivery
To load fonts and OCR/PDF assets, your browser may request files from:
- cdn.jsdelivr.net and/or unpkg.com (Tesseract language data, only when you run OCR)
- bergamot.s3.amazonaws.com (translation model files, only when you use Translate)
These providers receive standard request data such as IP address and user agent. Your PDF content is not sent in these requests.
Advertising
Papr does not display ads and does not share data with advertising partners.
Do Not Sell or Share (California)
We do not sell or share personal information.
Contact Form
When you use our Contact Us feature, your message (including name and email) is transmitted via Web3Forms to reach us. Web3Forms processes this message according to their own terms and privacy policy.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy as Papr evolves. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
