Privacy — Auto Delete & Temporary Storage

Customer documents are stored temporarily for printing and automatically deleted after the configured storage period.

Shopkeeper

Less Storage. Less Cleanup.

Documents stay only as long as needed for printing. PrintYantra removes them automatically after the configured storage period, so you do not have to manage old customer files by hand.

Customer

Temporary by design

Your document is stored temporarily so the shop can print it, then automatically deleted after the configured storage period — not kept permanently.
