Read PDFs as flipbooks, attach audio and page links, and save your personal library to your Google Drive. Privacy · Terms
Effective date: 15 October 2026
PDF Flip is a PDF flipbook reader maintained by the site owner. It supports local PDFs, reading progress, page links, attached audio and optional Google Drive storage.
When you sign in, the app uses your Google account identifier, name, email and profile information to identify your account and separate its device storage. It requests permission to create and access app-created Drive files (drive.file) to save your personal PDFs, attached audio, folder names, links and reading progress. It creates a “DCD Book Library” folder and a library.json file in your Drive. This data is used to provide the reader and library features you choose.
Signing in to load the shared default library asks for read-only Drive access (drive.readonly), because the shared folder was not created by the app. With that permission, the app reads that configured shared folder and your app library; its code does not scan your unrelated Drive files. Google may require additional consent and verification for this optional permission.
PDFs, audio, account-specific library metadata and reading progress are cached in IndexedDB on your device. Theme, autosave preferences and an optional public Client ID override are stored in browser local storage. Guest storage and each Google account use separate databases. Cached account data remains after sign-out; someone who can access your browser storage may be able to read it. Google access tokens are held in page memory, not stored by this app in browser storage.
Private uploads and library metadata are sent directly from your browser to Google Drive. The app does not send those files to an app-owner server or make them public. File visibility follows the permissions in your Drive. Google handles authentication and storage under its Privacy Policy. Cloudflare hosts this site and CDN providers deliver the PDF reader code; providers may process IP addresses and technical request information. The app includes no advertising or separate analytics tracker.
PDF Flip’s use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements. Google data is used only for these visible library features. It is not sold, used for advertising or used to train AI models.
Autosave can be disabled in Settings. Save library uploads your library; Load from Drive can replace this account’s device library after confirmation. Import guest books copies this device’s guest PDFs and attachments into the connected account’s library, which can then be uploaded.
Sign out clears the current app connection but keeps Drive files and device caches; it does not sign you out of Google or revoke permissions. Delete “DCD Book Library” in Drive and empty its trash to permanently remove saved cloud files. Clear this site’s data in browser settings on every device to remove cached data. Revoke permissions at Google Account → Third-party connections. Deleting a book in the app removes it from the library, not its original Drive PDF or previously uploaded audio. Account data stays until you remove it through these controls.
For support or privacy requests, use the support email shown on PDF Flip’s Google consent screen. Do not share private PDFs or credentials in public support channels. Adults should supervise children and manage any connected Google account in accordance with Google’s account rules. This page will be updated when data handling changes.

By using PDF Flip you agree to these terms. The service is a PDF reading and library tool operated by the site owner.
You retain your rights to content you import and authorize the app to process, display and save it for the features you choose. Use only files and accounts you are permitted to access. Respect copyright, privacy and applicable law. Do not use the app to distribute unlawful material or interfere with other users or service providers. Children should use the app with adult supervision.
Local use does not require Google sign-in. Cloud saving requires a working Google connection, available Drive storage and appropriate permissions. Autosave may fail because of expired authorization, network issues or conflicting changes. Keep separate copies of important files. Load from Drive replaces the current account’s device library after confirmation. Deleting a library entry does not delete its original Drive file.
PDF Flip is provided as available without additional warranties, to the extent permitted by applicable law. The app may change, become unavailable or be discontinued. Google, Cloudflare and CDN services have their own terms and availability limits. These terms do not exclude rights or responsibilities that applicable law does not allow to be excluded. Future app charges, if any, will be disclosed before you are asked to agree to them.
The Privacy Policy explains Google permissions, local copies and removal controls. For questions, use the support email on the Google consent screen. Revised terms will appear here with a new effective date.
