Privacy Policy
Last updated
PO Template Maker ("we", "us") is operated by PO Template Maker (operated by [Company name], UAE). This policy explains what data we handle when you use potemplatemaker.com.
The short version
- Free purchase orders never leave your device. The free PO maker builds PDF, Excel and Word files inside your browser. We never receive your company details, vendors, items or prices unless you subscribe to PO Pro and choose to save them. We never store generated files on our servers.
- Your draft purchase order is saved in your own browser's local storage so you don't lose work. Clear it any time with "Clear form" or by clearing site data.
- We don't sell personal data and don't use advertising cookies. We use Google Analytics to count visits (with a consent banner in the EU/UK).
Data we do process
- Contact form: the name, email and message you send us, used only to reply. Kept up to 24 months.
- Server logs and rate limits: our server records standard request logs (IP address, browser, pages requested) for security, kept up to 30 days. Our application logs contain only counts and errors, never purchase order contents, names or form fields. Rate limiting uses salted IP hashes held in memory, cleared within 24 hours.
- Analytics: we use Google Analytics 4 to count visits, template downloads and upgrades. See Google Analytics below.
- PO Pro saved data (opt-in): only what you choose to save: your company profile and logo, saved vendors, ship-to addresses and items, numbering settings and, when you click "Save to PO register", the form data of that purchase order plus the delivery records you enter (never the generated files). Limits: 100 vendors, 100 ship-to addresses, 100 items, the latest 200 purchase orders and 5 MB in total per licence. You can delete it all at any time with "Delete my saved data" on the PO Pro page, and it's deleted automatically 30 days after your subscription ends.
- Payments: handled by Stripe, which receives your email, payment details and billing address under its own privacy policy. We receive your subscription status and a customer ID; we never see your full card number.
- Cookies: Pro uses one essential, signed cookie (
pom_lic) to remember your licence in this browser. It isn't used for tracking.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 (Google Ireland Ltd / Google LLC) to understand which pages and templates are useful. It records pages viewed, approximate location (country/city), device and browser type, and events such as "template downloaded", "purchase order downloaded (format)", "PO saved", "delivery recorded", "upgrade clicked", "checkout started" and "purchase". We never send purchase order contents, company or vendor names, file names or anything you type into the maker. IP addresses are not stored by GA4. We don't use Google advertising features, and ad storage is disabled everywhere.
- EU/EEA, UK and Switzerland: analytics cookies are off until you click "Accept" in the cookie banner. If you decline, nothing is stored and Google only receives cookieless signals under Consent Mode.
- Other countries (including the US): analytics cookies (
_ga,_ga_*, up to 2 years) are set by default. - Opting out: clear this site's data to see the banner again (EU/UK), use your browser's tracking protection, or install the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
Advertising
Some content pages may show ads in the future. If that requires non-essential cookies, we'll ask for consent first and update this policy.

You can ask us to access, correct or delete personal data we hold about you, including under the GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA and UAE PDPL where they apply. Email hello@potemplatemaker.com.
Children
This service is intended for businesses and adults. We don't knowingly collect data from children under 16.
