Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 18, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Hyperionai Ltd collect and process personal data when you use the website at https://pdfocused.com/ (the "Website") and the services and products we provide through it (collectively, the "Service").
You are not required by law to provide us with any personal data. However, we require certain information in order to be able to provide the Services. If you choose not to provide us with your personal data, we may not be able to provide you with some or all of the Services. By using the Services and/or providing us with your personal data, you agree to the collection and use of your personal data in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
BY USING OUR SERVICE, YOU CONFIRM THAT (I) YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREED TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY, (II) YOU ARE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OF AGE (OR HAVE YOUR PARENT OR GUARDIAN'S CONSENT IF YOUNGER), AND (III) YOU ARE LEGALLY PERMITTED TO DISCLOSE ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. If you cannot make this confirmation, you must stop using the Service, cancel any subscriptions, and contact us to request data deletion.
In case of discrepancies between translated versions and the original English Privacy Policy available at https://pdfocused.com/privacy-policy, the English version shall prevail.
1. Personal Data Controller
This Privacy Policy applies when Hyperionai Ltd, a company registered in Nicosia, Cyprus (the "Company", "we", "our" or "us"), provides its Services directly to an individual or when the Company collects usage data from individual users of Company's enterprise customers, in which events the Company acts as the data controller of your personal data.
In contrast, the Company is considered the "data processor" and not the data controller when enterprise customers use the Company's Services to support their own provision of products and services to individuals since the Company acts at the direction of these enterprise customers regarding any collection or processing of data on their behalf. Therefore, this privacy policy does not apply to the data such enterprise customers may collect from individuals or their uses of that data.
2. Categories of Personal Data We Collect
We collect various categories of personal data in connection with the provision of our Services. Such data may be collected directly from you, generated through your use of the Services, or obtained from third-party sources, in accordance with applicable law.
