Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 15, 2025
1. Introduction
SigPDF (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our website at sigpdf.com (the “Service”).
We comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other applicable data protection laws in Germany and the European Union.
2. Data We Collect
2.1 PDF Documents
We do not collect, upload, or store your PDF documents. All PDF processing (viewing, signature placement, and signed PDF generation) happens entirely within your web browser. Your files never leave your device and are never transmitted to our servers.
2.2 Payment Information
When you make a purchase, payment is processed by Stripe, Inc. We do not collect or store your credit card details. Stripe processes your payment data in accordance with their Privacy Policy. We receive only a transaction confirmation and session identifier from Stripe.
2.3 Usage Data
We may collect anonymous usage data such as page views and browser type to improve our Service. This data does not identify individual users.
3. Cookies
We use only essential cookies required for the Service to function properly (e.g., session management for payment processing). We do not use tracking cookies, analytics cookies, or advertising cookies.
4. Data Processing
The legal basis for processing your data (payment information) is the performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) — specifically, to deliver the digital product you purchased. For usage data, the legal basis is our legitimate interest in improving the Service (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
5. Your Rights (GDPR)
Under the GDPR, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate personal data
- Request deletion of your personal data
- Object to or restrict processing of your data
- Data portability
- Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Since we do not store your PDF files and only receive limited payment data via Stripe, the personal data we hold is minimal. To exercise your rights, please contact us at privacy@sigpdf.com.
6. Data Retention
Payment transaction records are retained as required by German tax law (typically 10 years). No PDF document data is ever stored.
7. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Stripe — Payment processing (Privacy Policy)
- Vercel — Website hosting (Privacy Policy)
