FULL COOKIE POLICY

1. In Detail

This document provides comprehensive information to Users about the technologies that enable ClickPDFs.com (“the Application”) to operate efficiently, enhance the User experience, and deliver personalized, secure services. These technologies allow ClickPDFs (the “Owner”) to store, retrieve, and process information on a User’s device, for example, through Cookies, scripts, web beacons, or similar mechanisms (collectively referred to as “Trackers”).

For clarity, the term “Cookies” refers specifically to browser-based Trackers. While Cookies can be used on both desktop and mobile browsers, they may not be relevant within mobile applications. Other tracking technologies, such as scripts or web beacons, may also be deployed to achieve service functionality, analytics, or marketing purposes.

Certain Trackers, particularly those used for analytics, marketing, or personalization, require explicit User consent. Users must provide consent before such Trackers are deployed, and such consent can be freely withdrawn at any time by following the instructions provided in this document, or via browser/device settings. Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawful processing of data collected prior to withdrawal.

The Application employs both:

  • First-party Trackers: Managed directly by ClickPDFs to ensure essential functionality, security, and analytics.
  • Third-party Trackers: Managed by external service providers, which may collect or process data independently. ClickPDFs is not responsible for the data collection, use, or privacy practices of such third-party Trackers. Users are encouraged to review the privacy policies of these third-party providers for complete information.

Validity and Expiration:

The duration and validity of Cookies and other Trackers may vary depending on the settings applied by ClickPDFs or the relevant third-party providers. Some Trackers expire automatically at the end of a browsing session, while others remain stored for extended periods. Users may review specific retention periods or obtain updated information about individual Trackers by consulting third-party privacy policies or contacting ClickPDFs directly.

Limitations and Liability:

While ClickPDFs strives to provide transparency and control over Trackers, Users acknowledge that:

  • Disabling, blocking, or deleting Trackers may limit certain functionalities or affect service performance.
  • ClickPDFs cannot be held liable for any loss of features, data, or experience resulting from such actions.
  • Full legal compliance with international privacy regulations, including GDPR, CCPA, PIPEDA, and LGPD, is pursued to the maximum extent possible.

By continuing to use the Application, Users acknowledge that they have read, understood, and agreed to this In Detail explanation of Trackers, including the management of first-party and third-party technologies, retention periods, consent, and limitations of liability.
