✓No PrivateConvert cloud storage for your converted documents
✓No hidden background transfer of document contents
✓No account required for basic local conversion workflows
✓Normal Android file permissions are used only for actions you request
✓Supported conversions can work without internet access

Frequently asked questions
Privacy and offline conversion, explained plainly.
Does PrivateConvert upload my files to the cloud?
PrivateConvert is designed so supported local conversions and scans are processed on your Android device without uploading the document to a PrivateConvert cloud service.
Can PrivateConvert work without internet?
Supported offline conversion workflows are designed to run locally on the device. Internet may still be needed for unrelated actions such as downloading the app or third-party sharing.
Is PrivateConvert a CamScanner alternative for Android?
PrivateConvert can be used by people looking for a privacy-first Android document scanner and PDF converter. Its focus is supported local conversion and scanning workflows rather than requiring a PrivateConvert cloud upload.
Can I convert JPG or images to PDF on Android?
Yes. PrivateConvert includes supported JPG-to-PDF and images-to-PDF workflows so you can create PDF files from photos or scanned document images on Android.
Can I convert DOCX to PDF and compress PDF files?
PrivateConvert includes supported DOCX-to-PDF and PDF compression tools along with other PDF and image utilities.
Do I need an account?
No account is required for basic local conversion workflows.
Why is local processing different from encrypted cloud upload?
Encrypted upload can protect data while it travels, but the file still leaves your device for remote processing. Local processing avoids that transfer for supported conversions.
What permissions does the app use?
PrivateConvert may require Android permissions you explicitly grant to select, read, create, save or share files.
Is every feature guaranteed to work offline?
No. The offline claim applies to supported local conversion features. Features involving external services, links or third-party sharing can require internet access.
