Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 25, 2026

PDFSight is operated by Amidship Inc. ("we", "us", "our"). This privacy policy describes how we collect, use, store, and share information when you use PDFSight via our website (pdfsight.com), API, or the PDFSight ChatGPT app.

1. Data Categories We Collect

PDFSight processes PDF documents that you upload to detect and fill form fields. We collect the following categories of data:

Category	Description	Retention
PDF Documents	Files you upload for field detection and form filling	Automatically deleted after 1 hour (S3 storage) or up to 6 hours (local processing cache)
Form Data	Field values you provide to fill PDF forms	Held in memory during processing; session expires after 30 minutes of inactivity
Usage Data	Basic request logs (timestamps, request paths, response codes)	Up to 30 days for debugging
ChatGPT Interaction Data	When used as a ChatGPT app: user prompts and PDF content sent via OpenAI's platform	Not stored by PDFSight; subject to OpenAI's retention policy

We do not collect names, email addresses, payment information, or any personal identifiers beyond what is contained in the PDF documents you choose to upload.

2. Purposes of Use

We use the data we collect solely for the following purposes:

Service delivery: Detect form fields in your PDF documents using AI, fill forms with your provided data, and generate fillable PDFs for download.
Service reliability: Monitor request logs to diagnose errors and maintain uptime.
Service improvement: Analyze aggregate, non-identifying usage patterns to improve PDFSight's accuracy and performance.

We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or any purpose unrelated to providing the PDFSight service.

3. Data Storage and Retention

Retention periods for each data category are listed in the table in Section 1 above. In general:

All uploaded documents and form data are automatically purged — no action required on your part.
We do not maintain user accounts, so no personal information persists after your session expires.
Server logs do not contain document content.

4. Third-Party Recipients

To provide the service, we share data with the following third parties:

Recipient	Data Shared	Purpose	Privacy Policy
Google (Gemini API)	PDF page images (rendered from uploaded documents)	AI-powered form field detection and analysis	Google Privacy Policy
OpenAI	User prompts and PDF content (when used via the ChatGPT app or ChatKit agent)	ChatGPT app integration and AI-assisted PDF processing	OpenAI Privacy Policy
Amazon Web Services (S3)	Uploaded and processed PDF files	Temporary cloud storage for file processing and download	AWS Privacy Policy

Beyond these service providers, we do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise share your data with any third party, except:

To comply with a valid legal obligation (e.g., court order or subpoena)
To protect our rights, safety, or the safety of our users

5. Your Rights and Controls

You have the following rights regarding your data:

Access: You may request a copy of any data we hold about you by contacting us at the email below.
Deletion: You may request immediate deletion of any stored data. Because PDFSight retains documents for a maximum of 6 hours and does not require accounts, most data is automatically deleted without action on your part.
Download: You may download your processed documents at any time before they expire.
Withdraw consent: You may stop using the service at any time. No account or login is required, so there is nothing to deactivate.
Complaint: If you believe your data has been mishandled, you may contact us or lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days.

6. Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including:

HTTPS (TLS) encryption for all data in transit
Automatic deletion of temporary files on a scheduled basis
No permanent storage of uploaded document content
Server access restricted to authorized personnel only

7. Children's Privacy

PDFSight is not intended for users under 13 years of age (or the applicable age of digital consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has provided data to us, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

8. International Users

PDFSight is operated from Canada. If you access the service from outside Canada, your data may be transferred to and processed in Canada or other jurisdictions where our service providers operate. By using PDFSight, you consent to this transfer.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. If we make material changes, we will make reasonable efforts to notify users (e.g., via a notice on the website).
