Your case papers stay on your computer.

Effective 5 November 2026

This policy is for YIP PDF, the PDF program for Windows computers. The YIP Note apps have their own privacy policies.

In short

Your documents, and everything you do to them, stay on your computer. We never see them.
If you sign in, we keep only your name, email, the computers you use and your payments, so your free period and your licence work on your computers.
No advertising, no trackers, no analytics. We do not sell anything about you.

YIP PDF is made by YourIPLawyer.in (Adv. Rohit Pradhan), “we” in this policy. It explains what happens to information when you use the YIP PDF program for Windows.

1. What stays on your computer

YIP PDF opens, reads, changes and saves your files only on your computer. This includes reading scanned pages (OCR), converting Word, PowerPoint and Excel files (using Microsoft Office on your computer, when it is installed), compressing, page numbering, stamps, redaction, signing and every other tool. While you work, YIP PDF keeps working copies and undo steps in a private folder on your computer and removes them when you close the document or the program. Your settings, recent files and the record of your free period are also kept only on your computer. We have no copy of any of it.

When you choose Open in YIP Note, the document is handed to YIP Note on the same computer. It does not leave your computer. The copy handed over is removed once YIP Note has saved its own.

2. If you sign in: what we keep and why

Signing in is optional. Without signing in, YIP PDF only asks our server for its current settings, which sends nothing about you. You sign in with Google. This lets your free period and your yearly licence follow your account to your computers. Our accounts server keeps:

your name and email address as Google gives them to us, and the account number Google gives us for you (not your password);
each computer you sign in on: a one-way code made from that computer’s Windows identifiers (it cannot be turned back into them), the computer’s name (for example “OFFICE-PC (Windows)”) and when it was last used;
when your free period started and ends, and your payments: the payment reference, amount, plan and dates;
a sign-in token for each computer (we keep only a scrambled form of it).

We use this only to run your account: to know which features you may use, to show your plan and computers, and to answer your questions. While you are signed in, YIP PDF checks your licence with our server about once a week; that check sends only your sign-in token and the computer’s one-way code. We do not use any of this for advertising and we do not sell it.

3. Who else handles it

Google confirms who you are when you sign in, under Google’s privacy policy.
Razorpay handles payments for YIP PDF under Razorpay’s privacy policy. We never receive your card, UPI or bank details.
Cloudflare runs our accounts server and stores the account information above for us, in its data centres, which may be outside your country.
Microsoft, if you install YIP PDF from the Microsoft Store, handles the download and may share download and crash statistics with us under Microsoft’s privacy statement. These do not include your documents.

4. How long we keep it, and deleting it

We keep your account information while you have an account. To delete your account, write to us at the address below: we will delete your account, computers, sign-in tokens and payment records within 30 days, except what the law requires us to keep for accounting. We then keep only a one-way code made from your Google account number, with the date your free period ended, so that the free period cannot be started again; it cannot be turned back into your name or email.

Signing out of YIP PDF, or signing a computer out under Account, ends its sign-in. Uninstalling YIP PDF removes the program; your own PDF files stay where you saved them.

5. Your rights

You may ask us for a copy of the account information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, including under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. Write to us at the address below; we will reply within 30 days.

If you live in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have these rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as well. You can also object to our use of your information, ask us to restrict it, ask for it in a form you can take elsewhere, and complain to the data protection authority where you live. We use your account information because it is needed to provide the account and licence you asked for. Cloudflare may store it outside your country under its data processing terms, which include the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.

If you live elsewhere, you have the rights your own country’s data protection law gives you; write to us and we will help.

6. Security

Account information travels only over encrypted connections. The licence that says what your account may do is signed by our server, so it cannot be changed on the computer.

7. Links to other websites

Some buttons in YIP PDF open pages of this website, or a payment page, in your web browser. Other websites have their own privacy policies.

8. Children

YIP PDF is made for legal professionals and is not directed at children.

9. Changes to this policy

If a future version of YIP PDF needs to send anything else off your computer, for an optional feature, it will ask you first and say in plain words what would leave the computer. We will update this page and its date.

10. Contact and grievances
